There's just something about a head being plopped onto a torso sans any semblance of vertebrae that I find disconcerting. The fact that the elbows don't appear to have any joints doesn't help matters. It makes me think that the Gaia avatars are little dough people and if you move them, their heads will roll right off their shoulders.

Also:

I totally fell asleep during the Lord of the Rings movie, but it was a rental, not in a theater. I just got so bored of helicopter shots... of... landscapes... and... more.... landscapes... and... mountains... and... -snore.-

Books are good, though.
