1 year and 10 days... What a revieve...

Still, it's an interesting topic that could continue
Also matt:

i always hoped that if the mouth took over for Sauron after him, he would not do the "i have more forces than you" kind of fighting. more of just tatics that screwed people over with tricks

Hm, it looks familiar...
My favorite book character whould be... Eomer, I guess... And he's also one of my favorites for movie

Well, since this is probably the only topic Celeglin will ever make in this forum ... let's keep it going.

I agree with this one:

... favorite character is the one everybody forgets, good old Samwise Gamgee. I truly believe he was the real hero in the entire series. He saved Frodo countless times throughout the story, and he never abandons him. Without him, Frodo would have long been gone in the story ...

Praise to all the humble gardeners of the [Middle]-earth!

[Neth]

Keep the topic going!

My favorite is Fingolfin, because he was awesome He fought Morgoth and did pretty well at it too, considering he's a god and all He also didn't hate Feanor, despite everything he did to him. I'd have lost my temper at him. Alot

[Mathijs]

My favorite is Faramir, because of the great wisdom he had attained in the relatively small amount of years he'd been alive when the War of the Ring broke out, his true loyalty unwavering on the eve of disaster. He was also one of the only men that resisted the temptation of the Ring, far more readily in the books than in the movies (I feel Jackson did a pretty poor job there) and understood the urgency of Frodo's journey.

"But fear no more! I would not take this thing, if it lay by the highway. Not were Minas Tirith falling in ruin and I alone could save her, so, using the weapon of the Dark Lord for her good and my glory. No, I do not wish for such triumphs, Frodo son of Drogo."

"War must be, while we defend our lives against a destroyer who would devour all; but I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend: the city of the Men of Numenor; and I would have her loved for her memory, her ancientry, her beauty, and her present wisdom. Not feared, save as men may fear the dignity of a man, old and wise."

The character that comes second to him in my opinion is Halbarad. When reading the books, Aragorn is made out to be such a powerful man, most wise and kind of heart, and then Halbarad appears, his second in command, travelling for miles and miles and miles just to stand by his side. It blew my mind to know that there truly were more men like Aragorn.

Edit: Oh and Tûrin Turambar is awesome. I guess I have a thing for Men, eh? Pun intended.

[{IRS}Athos]

I'm a fan of Feanor. Not only does he have one of the most developed and complex characters in the Silmarillion, but he's freakin' awesome to boot.

[drogoth232]

I would have to go with Neth with Fingolfin and with all the reasons he gave.
He can read brains.......

[MirkwoodArcher]

Well, I have two favorites from the First Age and one from the Third.

First Age favorites are Fingolfin and Finrod Felagund.

Third Age favorite is Gandalf.

[Sauhron]

I'd go with Gandalf.

Without his work against Sauron Middle-Earth would have been screwed up.

Too bad he didn't use his powers in the movies as much as he did in the books though.

My second fav is the Witch-king.

[Ring o' Fate]

"FORTH EORLINGAS!!!!!!!!"
You have three guesses, and the last 2 don't count.

[Florisz]

Theoden, Rings?

[Spartan184]

Legolas, Aragorn, Gimli, and Gandalf, the best character in the whole movie

[Mathijs]

Such bland choices.

[Spartan184]

Yeah they are, but my favorite out of all of them is Legolas, cause 1 he is a elf, and 2 he is really skilled with his bow and I just happen to be a fanatic of archery

[Mathijs]

And, I take it, because the movies portrayed him as a mindless, stating-the-painstakingly-obvious superhero to cater to the simple, cheesy-action-craving, short-attention-span-having kids to rake in more money?

[Spartan184]

No, I know that in the books he isn't all super awesome and everything, but still he is a fantastic archer. Gimli is my second, he is hilarious in the movies, and has some pretty awesome axes. I don't know who could not like Gimili.

[Kwen]

I choose Haldir. For his portrayed nobility in the movies. He's, like spart said about Legolas, a skilled fighter. But not the one everyone thinks of.

[JUS_SAURON]

Sauron ... and the Witch King of Angmar

I like the Baddies ..

The fear they instill by just showing up. Their slow ,calculated moves .
They hardly speak but when they do YOU LISTEN !
When you think you have won the day and all is well ...
You think you are heroic to face them but in reality you are FOOLISH !





... and Sam's Lady Friend , She's kinda cute

[Legs]

Olwë, Beleg Cuthalion, Elwë Grey-Cloak, Mablung of The Heavy Hand, Ëarwen, Luthien, Finrod Felagund, Melian, Ossë and Ulmo.
