ComingSoon.net Interview, October 10, 2001 : "[The Elves] are very perfect and beautiful and other-worldly and they show, they don't age physically. That's not what that's about. The whole point of them is that they are these other-worldly, amazing beings. And for them, time is a totally different thing. Fifty years to them is like a day. (laughs) You know what I mean ?" [...] "I have some little pointy ears, yeah. But Elves are little cute things. They're very tall, very slender, long, kind of sleek. They look really strange. They almost look like bugs. Like a grasshopper or something. They are all very interesting to look at."
