I LIKE ALL OF THEM!!! (well, the good ones at least) DON'T MAKE ME DECIDE!!!!
Ok, I'll chose Boromir because no one else is going to vote for him and he really was a good man. Even though he didn't listen to Elrond and Gandalf and wanted to take the ring, he is really cool.

I voted for Aragorn. He's cool.

After Aragorn it's Legalos, Frodo, Gandalf, Pippen, Merry, Boromir, Sam, Gimli.

Everyone likes Strider. They really messed him up in the movie though.

I voted other.
I think quickbeam is the best, but he doesn't come in untill Two Towers.


By the way Uruk-hai is the plural form, no s is needed.

They left out a lot of different things about him. Such as how he liked writting songs with Bilbo, and the whole reforging of Narsil. One thing that I just noticed the last time I saw the movie was that him shouting Elendil as he jumped onto some Uruk-Hai. That was cool.

haha, I forgot about aragorn writing songs. But they probably couldn't have fit that into the movie. *chop chop* aragorn: Hey, I'm a slayer but I'm a sensitive songwriter too!" *slash*..........LoL. I didn't notice in the whole 8-9 x I've seen the movie the part where he shouts Elendil, at least something will surprise me the next time I see it. My mom, the insane LOTR fan, wants to see it again.

Favorite LOTR book

After you vote tell why. I like The Return of the King the best because it has the most action and plays with your emotions the most (I can't explain because someone who hasn't yet finished the book might read this and I would give to much away).

BTW, I added the Hobbit because it is so closely related.

It's really hard for me to pick a favorite since the three parts were originally supposed to be published as one and each of the three has one of my favorite parts in it. However, my vote goes to The Return of the King because of the ending. I get all misty-eyed nearly every time I read it. I like The Hobbit a lot too (especially "Riddles in the Dark"), but I like The Lord of the Rings a little better.
