What, no other options? I'd tick Aragorn, Legolas, Eowyn AND Gimli if I could. Alas. _________________ ~Hathor~

Not enough options. No STEVE, am baffled by this?
Is Legolas wearing his spiffy green tights? If so - i vote for him too. If not, has to be Gimli. Ginger and has a great accent. Superb character
Robbo - I was only joking about the handbag!? What have i done?  _________________ I am no longer posting on the Forums. If you need me, I am lurking in the archives, reading and reviewing. You can also catch me at Demented Indigo! |

Wait... is this favorite character, or favorite-hunky-actor-playing-said-character? 'Cause if it's all about the character, then my original vote stands: Gollum. That dude is complicated, well-developed, and has his own sub-dialect. What a stellar piece of writing.
Aragorn, on the other hand, is a yawn-inducing, pompous, unimaginative stock hero in the book. But Vigagorn makes me swoon.  |

Never heard that one, a very good way to put it.
I want to choose Eomer, just because the guy is the king of the horse lands, what else is there to compete with?
I chose Estel of course, he is the king of the white city so, he would be my second choice. |

What, no Boromir?!!! No Boromir!!! Co-dependent female that I am, Boromir was my favorite book character long before Sean Bean brought him to life on screen. Both movie and book, definitely Boromir.

Not many choices indeed... and not having Boromir in there is really not ON.

What? No Éomer? No Faramir? No Boromir? No Imrahil? (oops - I forgot - PJ left him out of the movie altogether)...

*hands over a hanky*
PJ just couldn't find an actor fabulous enough to play him. Incidentally, that's also the excuse I've been making for the conspicuous absence of Glorfindel. |

Too bad the poll didn't include Eomer, because he would have been my second choice after He Who Walks on Snow.
Viv - who would you have picked to play Glorfindel? One possibility suggested to me was Travis Fimmel, the Calvin Klein underwear model. He also starred in that new TV series about Tarzan before it was cancelled.

He's always been one of my favorite characters. I don't know after thefirst time I read LOTR he just kind of stuck to me. And of course the idea that I like him because of Viggo is just...completly...ridiculous. Stop staring at me! _________________ ||Lex||Yoda||Sooker||

I loved you.

I thought I'd pass this URL along to you two Glorfindel fans. This was the guy who was walking at the head of Arwen's group when she was heading for the Havens. He says he modeled his character after Glorfindel and was flattered that fans thought of him that way. What a gorgeous man.
