She seems too pale and divine for my nature. I really like Gimli. He is really an odd and funny dwarf to be going on a long adventure outside a cave or mountain.

With an elf.

Yeah, but that's a pretty good way to spent your time.

Yay LotR thread! ^^

I'm such a huge fan. The books and movies are both great.

If I had to choose a favorite character, it'd be Legolas, but I love them all!

x3 I love Legolas. My two favorites are Gandalf and Legolas, I think.

Same here!
I <3 All the characters though. My camp counselor said I looked like Arwen once and I'm like: O_O No I don't. But I took it as a compliment anyway XD

My whole family thinks I look like Arwen. I don't.

I love LotR and the Hobbit so much that in mid-July I wrote down a countdown to the release of BotFA on Dec. 17. Has anyone else done that? If so I'M NOT ALONE!!! If not I AM THE WORLDS BIGGEST KÍLI FANGIRL!!! (I did it for Kíli).

I'm bumping this because I'm doing stuff on a related thing right now.
On another related note….. Sheesh.

OMG!!!!! I LOVE LOTR AND THE HOBBIT!!!!!! SERIOUSLY ABSSESSED!!!!!!

Fav characters would have to be..
from LOTR: Legolas and Pipin
from The Hobbit: Bilbo and Kili!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

although they are all pretty awesome!!!!!!!!
Can't wait to go and see battle of the five armies! It came out about a week ago but my family is waiting for the second movie to arrive on disc so we can watch the second one again as we have all forgotten prety much everything that happens in second movie (except of course the spiders and smaug! no one could forget spiders and smaug!)

We were also going to go to the Hobbiton set but the one day we were there was the one day in the whole year the it was closed!!!!!!

I found the Hobbit films very ‘extra’ as the hobbit book is MUCH shorter than any of the Lord of the Rings books.
However, I love Middle Earth.

Actually she does more than that. In the books she gave Frodo some kind of gift at the end but I can't remember what it was and in the movie she carried Frodo to Rivendell and helped to heal him so she ain't useless!

Oh My gosh! I am such a Lotr/Hobbit fangirl!
my fav character is Aragorn/kili <3

I'm a really big fan of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. I love watching Peter Jackson's LOTR trilogy, but The Hobbit trilogy strayed a bit too far from the book for my liking. By making two extra films, he had to fill the time and chose to fill it with lost of action and battle sequences. Too much CGI.
I thought the first Hobbit movie was promising, but the next two movies…
One annoying aspect was kind of trivial. Peter Jackson supposedly broke the world record for he longest red carpet for The Return of the King. A decade later, he decides to break his former record set by the LOTR trilogy and do it for the first Hobbit movie.
He kind of said that he wasn't going back to Middle Earth after LOTR.
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King swept all eleven Oscars it was nominated for. Together, The Lord of the Rings trilogy won 17 Academy Awards. Sort of sad, because the Hobbit, although expected to make a billion pounds in its box office debut, might not make the cut (in the Oscars).

On a slightly more positive note, the Hobbit trilogy did a nice job of filling in the back story of the Hobbit and LOTR. It also made it possible for a more or less smooth transition to LOTR. I liked Radagast's rabbit sled, though. While not entirely realistic (yeah, we're talking about giant eagles here), I did get a a kick out of them, so to speak.

I did not, however, see the need for doomed elf/dwarf love triangle. No offense, but Tauriel wasn't exactly my favorite character.

*Apologies to Peter Jackson, Philippa Boyens, Richard Taylor, Orlando Bloom, Ian McKellen, Martin Freeman, Benedict Cumberbatch, (and everyone else). I guess Evangeline Lilly, since I personally picked her out. To all those above, I have nothing against you or your acting/directing, etc.

Really. There's always something new to discover in it.

I really like Gimli, too. He has some great lines (complete with a sense of humor), particularly in the Two Towers. He also has a sweet platonic relationship with Legolas and Aragorn, but especially Aragorn.

i am a HUGE fan of lotr i have read the book and seen al the movies to prove i love it check out this https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/56779176/

raising this thread from the dead y'all

Lord of the Rings was my first real fandom. I first watched them when I was probably 8 or 9 and I fell in love with the magnificent characters, super interesting story line, epic music, and amazing battles. The trilogy has become something I can watch over and over again. I also enjoy listening to the (super fantastic) soundtrack while I concentrate on schoolwork - it's super motivating! My favorite characters are Legolas (he was my inspiration to get my own bow and now I'm really into archery), Aragorn (he's a boss), Arwen (elves rock), and basically all the hobbits, especially Merry and Sam. LotR will always have a very special place in my heart. <3

fav charecter is legolas

My favorite movies.
