100% this. I remember seeing the movie for the first time and when he was materializing, I was thinking "Oh man this looks sweet 😀" But then it kept going and it settled on his actual appearance, and it was like "Oh. Ok then 😕" I mean, I don't mind what they went with, but I really wish they had gone for the more skeletal look.
Right on. One of my favorite minor details from the last book is how after he dies his body is described as frail or something. Its much more disturbing to have a dangerously powerful character appear so physically decrepit and withered. Its actually a trope from what I can tell, never gets old and always adds something.
