Looks at Martock's post and is just speechless.

How??

FotR and RotK are my 2 favorite books of the trilogy.

To the question posed at the beginning about the grayness of the scenes: Much of the events happen at nightime as that's when Orcs and Nazgul prefer to act. Also as they approach and enter Mordor, you are entering a land literally "under the shadow" of the Lord of Mordor. Everything appears gray to emphisize the growing control of Mordor over Middle Earth and to emphasize Frodo and Sam's increasing proximity to Mt. Doom.
