Honoring Those Forgotten

[Maegaladiel]

Hail fellow! Well Met, and Mae Govannen! We are gathered here today to honor those wonderful characters that people just seem to forget about.

To give thanks to all of those wonderous beings, let us dedicate this thread to praising the forgotten heroes.

Our first forgotten character is one of my personal favorites...BEORN the Skin changer!!!

Everyone- Who?

Just as I suspected. You have forgotten the great character who helped the dwarves and Bilbo get through Mirkwood, and fought in the Battle of Five Armies! Get down on your knees and beg for forgiveness!!!!!!

Ok, so here's how this goes. There's a whole boatload of great characters out there that people forget about. Let's give them what they deserve. Present Beorn with a gift, offer a speech, or do whatever you like to show the world how much you care about everyone's favorite bear guy. Maybe you could present your own favorite but forgotten character, and let everyone else shower them with praise. (No Meela, Denethor isn't a forgotten character.)

Gooooooooo BEORN!!!

~Maegaladiel, the Nearsighted Elf
"The Beorn Identity", coming to a theatre near you!

[Meela]

Darn smilies/smile.gif

What about Bergil, Beregond's little boy? I adore him, but he's not exactly the talk of the town.

[Sapphire_Flame]

Same here, Meela. smilies/biggrin.gif

Abedithon le,

~*~Aranel~*~

[Cinderella]

*cough* Glorfindel *cough* smilies/evil.gif

[Amarantha_Daisy]

*cough* Glorfindel *cough*

Heh heh heh...yeah! Poor Glorfindel...

What about Ghan-buri-Ghan? "I count many things; stars in sky, leaves on trees, men in the dark" Poor thing's always forgotten. He talked like a caveman and looked like...a short, stumpy...Neanderthal...

We love him, don't we? smilies/wink.gif

[Horse-Maiden of the Shire]

We can't possibly forget our all-time favourite Elven siblings, Elladan and Elrohir!

*sees everyone's look of "Duhhh?"*

You know, Elrond's twins!

"Duhhh?"

Ehm...never mind. At least the Barrow-Downers know what I'm talking about, eh guys?

[Amarantha_Daisy]

Friends, I come bearing gifts for those who are oft...not mentioned...

Beorn, I present thee with $500 towards your "Save the Bears" foundation.

For Bergil, a giant neon sign to hang around your neck, saying "I am here, and at least Pippin remembers me!"

For Glorfindel, a "Save Your Own Frodo" kit, complete with step-by-step instructions on how NOT to be left out of a movie.

For Ghan-buri-Ghan, English lessons and a spear, for killing those saber-toothed tigers smilies/tongue.gif

And for Elladan and Elrohir, name tags, so that you will be recognised in the Council of Elrond.

Almighty forgotten characters! May your names go down in history amoung those who...have way too much spare time on thier hands and decide to go through the books remembering you...

smilies/eek.gif smilies/eek.gif

I forgot to mention the twins! *grovels in an apologetic manner* They are absolute favorites of mine, especially Elrohir. Yay for the twins!!!

And let us not forget the Baddies: Snaga (in all his appearances...) and those two orcs Frodo and Sam see when crossing Gorgoroth. Any more?

Abedithon le,

~*~Aranel~*~

[Cinderella]

Mablung and Damrod are severly overlooked also...didn't that night in Ithilien mean anything to you Frodo? Sam? *whimpers*

[peonydeepdelver]

How could anyone forget the most ignored yet beloved hobbit of all: Nob!

[Meneltarmacil]

I give a toast to all the Dwarves in The Hobbit... some of the kindest and yet overlooked Dwarves in Middle Earth!

Especially worthy of recognition are Balin, Dori, Gloin... and who could forget Bombur? Dwarves are many times called gruff and unfriendly, but these stand out as the kindest Dwarves I have ever known. It's really a shame they haven't been mentioned much after The Hobbit. They deserve recognition for their deeds.

[ August 18, 2003: Message edited by: Meneltarmacil ]

[Elennar Starfire]

How could anyone forget the most ignored yet beloved hobbit of all: Nob!

Yay for Nob! And Bob!

What about Gildor? He is often forgotten, but not often forgotten is his line: "Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger."

All hail Gildor, my favorite elf!

[ElenCala Isil]

what about Fatty Bolger?! He was in frodo's new house when the nazgûl attacked... and Old man Willow! (at least movie-wise anywho)

[Cinderella]

Poor Fatty... how could he have known that dressing up like Frodo would be a BAD idea??? smilies/evil.gif

[Eowyn_Wildfire]

what abot that healing lady is that final battle in ROTK my memories blank right now *consutls book* smilies/rolleyes.gif

[Cinderella]

Welcome to the Downs Eowyn... And btw It was Ioreth smilies/biggrin.gif

[Yavanna228]

My vote goes to Quickbeam. smilies/smile.gif He was a cheery soul, even if he was a bit hasty. Also, poor, dear Glorfindel and Fatty Bolger. Such a shame that they should be 'forgotten'. But then again, Glorfindel hasn't been forgotten on this forum. Many, many topics have been raised about him! Hurrah! smilies/smile.gif
Peace

[ElenCala Isil]

what abot that healing lady is that final battle in ROTK my memories blank right now
Do you mean Ioreth???
what about the huorns?

[Alatáriël Lossëhelin]

We can't possibly forget our all-time favourite Elven siblings, Elladan and Elrohir!

I could never forget my two favorite elves!!

And Farmer Maggot...He was able to get Frodo, Sam & Pippin to the Ferry in safety, plus he gave them the huge basket of mushrooms!

And let's not forget Halbarad, the only Ranger besides Aragorn with a name.

[Eowyn_Wildfire]

thanx i did mean i Ioreth
stupid memory

[the guy who be short]

Radagast RADAGAST RADAGAST.
Why does everybody forget him? Why? Without him, Gandy would not have been able to lodge with Beorn, the dwarves quest would fail, the ring would never get to Frodo because Bilbo would die of starvation, Sauron would rule. And people forget HIM! smilies/mad.gif smilies/mad.gif smilies/mad.gif smilies/mad.gif

[ElenCala Isil]

Ahhh! Yes! Poor Radagast, so forgotten.. smilies/frown.gif at least we've remembered him! *sends Radagast a wafer of Lembas* Huzzah for Radagast, and all the other no-longer-forgotten! smilies/biggrin.gif

[ElenCala Isil]

What about the Eagles? Gwaihir, and his brother Landroval... Not to mention Meneldur the swift...

[Amarantha_Daisy]

Oooo, yeah! Radagast! If it weren't for him, what would become of our dear Middle-Earth?!

Radagast, dear Radagast. He may not have had a big part overall but what he did was important. He *did* save Gandalf's life. Were it not for him, where would everyone be now? Death and destruction in the hands of Sauron, that's where! Hurrah for Radagast! *cheers* *confetti* *champagne*

[Duncariel]

My vote goes to Quickbeam

Hoora for Quickbeam! I love him!

And what about Sam's old Gaffer? I think he's own a little respect for living with Sam all those years...

[Sapphire_Flame]

You all think too highly of the good guys.

Abedithon le,

~*~Aranel~*~

[ August 21, 2003: Message edited by: Sapphire_Flame ]

[ElenCala Isil]

perhaps.. -.^ but I think just about everyone has forgotten about Theoden's minstrel, Gléowine..

[peonydeepdelver]

And how could we forget old Bill Ferny, and his mangy starved friend Bill the pony?

Then there's the squinted-eyed Southerner with no name...

[Lord of Angmar]

I don't hear Elfhelm or Erkenbrand spoken of much anymore!

Three cheers for Gleowine for his lovely dirge!

[peonydeepdelver]

And three more cheers for Mr. Cotton and the Gaffer! Oi!

[Kaiserin]

Nobody has yet mentioned Carc and Roac, and poor Deagol.

[Alatáriël Lossëhelin]

No one ever talks about Círdan, and yet it was he who kept the Havens open so that the Elves could continue to journey to Valinor. He also gave Narya to Gandalf when he first arrived in Middle-Earth.

And don't forget Prince Imrahil of Dol Amroth; Forlong the Fat of Lossarnach; Celebrían wife of Elrond; Thranduil father of Legolas; Rúmil and Orophin, brothers of Haldir; Lobelia Sackville-Baggins; Robin Smallburrow the Shirriff; and Will Whitfoot the Mayor. All great characters who were important in their own way, but who are destined to remain unknown to those who haven't read the books.

[Maegaladiel]

And let's not forget Bard! YAY BARD! You go, dragon slayer man of power! Bard-bard-bard-bard-bard, HEY!

[Feanor of the Peredhil]

I was going to write my favorite forgotten character... but while trying to do three or four things at once, I managed to forget who I wanted to honor!!!!! Isn't that horrible? I can't even remember the race, gender... Oh... I remembered gender... it's male... and he was actually an important character... maybe it'll come to me later as I'm doing laundry or something.

Fea

[Daisy Brambleburr]

I am going to do a Galadriel and present gifts to my favorite forgotten characters.

Firstly, I come to Ioreth. Ioreth, I present you with a megaphone so that more people will be able to hear your words of infinite wisdom. Also, I give to you a copy of heat magazine, to feed your hunger for gossip suitably.

For you, Bard I have a quiver of arrows so that you may shoot many more evil things. May they serve you well!

Most honorable and esteemed Farmer Maggot, I give to you a pink fluffy poodle so that you may have more variety within your pack of dogs. Also, an electric fence and two rolls of barbed wire to keep unruly hobbits from your crop.

And last, but most certainly not least, I come to Quickbeam. Quickbeam, I have for you a pack of cards that you may amuse yourself with when you find your fellow Ents are being particulary slow. May you use them wisely!

smilies/biggrin.gif What fun!

[Tinuviel of Denton]

No one has yet mention Daeron, Thingol's minstrel. He was a little misguided, but hey, he was in love.

And, while on the subject of the Silmarillion, what about Tar-Miriel? And Elros? And Earendil? And the Valar?

[Anything but Arwen]

Then there's the squinted-eyed Southerner with no name...

He was "Saruman's most trusted servant" A Dunlending, I believe, with orc blood...

And lets not forget the ponies!!!
Sharp Ears, Wise Nose, Swish Tail, Bumpkin, White Socks, and of course Fatty Lumpkin...
And Asfaloth!!! WHO WAS GLORFINDEL'S! NOT ARWENS! Horse thief...and what of Beorn's little creatures? Them too! And the Cats of Beruthiel...little horrors...and Huan!! HUAN AND DRAUGLUIN!!! NOBODY EVER REMEMBERS HUAN!! And I better shut up now, before I get into a rant....

[Cinderella]

and poor Deagol...
This is Gollum's therapist, my paitent and I would really prefer if you not bring up the aforementioned personage. It is hindering to my patients recovery. Thank you.
- Dr. Precious

smilies/biggrin.gif

[Anything but Arwen]

Dr...Precious?

Can I book an appointment please? I ate my last therapist... smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/rolleyes.gif

[Finwe]

We're forgetting Alatar and Pallando. Without them, Saruman would probably have been stopped from doing all the evil things that he did, resulting in a completely different plot line, and Sauron's eventual conquest of all Middle-earth!!!!!!

*slinks off to ponder her faulty reasoning*

[Cinderella]

Dr...Precious?
Can I book an appointment please? I ate my last therapist...


Erm... *cough* I think I should refer you to Dr. Sauron... He's quite gifted, he taught me everything I know smilies/evil.gif

[Daewen]

What about Fili and Kili? They were two dwarves that went along with Bilbo on his adventures. I thought they had the coolest names. And to all you Beorn lovers out there; Beorn is my father's favorite character, followed, strangley enough, by Legolas. My daddy's a Leggybopper...

[Cuthalion]

And what of the Mouth of Sauron? Now there's a guy who knows how to make an entrance! He may not have been the most courageous emissary in Middle Earth, but he was certainly the most narcissistic!

But ya know? You have to feel sorry for the less fortunate among Sauron's minions. I mean, what would you have to have done to earn the monicker The Mouth of Sauron in the first place? Be Irish? smilies/wink.gif The mind reels at the possibilitites....The Lower Intestine of Sauron...The Uvula of Sauron...The Coccyx of Sauron. The list goes on. smilies/wink.gif smilies/biggrin.gif

[Arothir]

What about Lotho, Otho, and Bill Ferny. Then what about Harry Goatleaf? There's also Khamul the Black Easterling, second in rank to the Witch-king. He was the one the little hobbits first saw in the Shire.

[Alphaelin]

Yay, I'm glad someone besides me wants to remember Fili & Kili, who died defending Thorin with shield and body, for he was their mother's brother.

And what about Thorin himself? If he hadn't been so determined to avenge Erebor, the end of the books would have been quite different! "Night in Rivendell...no Queen in Gondor", according to Gandalf.

Then there's always Theoden's loyal captain, Hama! Poor soul, he died at Helm's deep, and what does he get for it? One line in TTT.

Also in TTT, Mablung and his friend whose name I forget, who are archers in Faramir's (the REAL Faramir, mind you) band in Ithilien.

Last but not least, The Real Faramir!!!

[Elróthiel]

Does NO ONE remember Túrin? That brave man (he should have been an Elf!) who defeated Glaurung the Worm! Bow down to Túrin! He's my fave Silmarillion character! Then Manwé.

What about the Barrow Wights? They don't seem to be remembered that much! Except on this site.

And Aldarion? Helloh! He was the king of Númenor! The Mariner!

What about Oropher? Until Unfinished Tales, I didn't even know he existed! Legolas' grandfather!

From
Elróthiel, the Insane Elven Goddess of Hilariosity and Laughter Who Sees the Corruption of the World Today!

[Oddwen]

(Not really a person, but nonetheless forgotten) ... NINNYHAMMERS!

And what of Bifur, Bofur and Bombur?

And Tevildo, who was a precursor to Sauron but nonetheless creepy.

Celebrimbor! Forger of the Great Rings!

FINARFIN! My favorite elf. Cool name, too.

Falco Boffin, anyone? One of Frodo's friends, but MENTIONED ONLY ONCE?

Sancho Proudfoot, the Tussler of the Cellars?

You all may be gone, but you are most definitely not forgotten!

[ElenCala Isil]

What about Fili and Kili? They were two dwarves that went along with Bilbo on his adventures. I thought they had the coolest names

well, that's because they DO have the coolest names! smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif

[Kalimac]

Ioreth's been mentioned, but what about her kinswoman who was with her when the newly victorious King entered the city? Not only did this kinswoman provide Ioreth with an excuse for gossip (thus giving comic relief to the reader when it was sorely needed) she also managed somehow to refrain from telling Ioreth to just be quiet already! Considering that she doesn't even have her own name, Ioreth's kinswoman held her own pretty well, I would say.

[Forest Walker]

the Cats of Beruthiel...little horrors...and Huan!! HUAN AND DRAUGLUIN!!! NOBODY EVER REMEMBERS HUAN!!
I agree! Go Huan!

Last but not least, The Real Faramir!!!

Right you are! faramir is NOT EVIL!! *goes into big long rant, has to be restrained from strangling Peter Jackson*

[Forest Walker]

Hey, I know someone! Morgoth/Melkor! Everyone remember's Sauron, what about his master?

[peonydeepdelver]

We can never forget Hob Hayward, one of the Shirriffs when the hobbits returned home, I believe!

[Cinderella]

*Drumroll*

And the character least likely to ever be forgotten is....

Arwen!!! smilies/evil.gif

With Evil Twin Faramir in a close second...

[Lathriel]

What about Ugluk that foul Uruk-Hai dude?

And what about those people that led Rohan's army through Druaden forest, the wild man with Ghan-Buri-Ghan.

Somehow I also feel like Erkenbrand is being forgotten he helped save Helm's Deep!

[Arothir]

what about Argon, Fingolfin's other son besides Turgon and Fingon?

[Lyta_Underhill]

what about Argon, Fingolfin's other son besides Turgon and Fingon?
I thought Argon was the brother of Neon, Helium and Radon (the black sheep of the family.) He WAS a noble gas though! smilies/wink.gif

Cheers,
Lyta

[ September 27, 2003: Message edited by: Lyta_Underhill ]

[Gorwingel]

I am glad a few people have talked about Bard. I was just reading about him, and he is really important, but sadly forgotten much of the time. So, just to honor this very valiant charater: Three Cheers for Bard!!! Yey, Yey, Yey!

And a know a couple people have brought up Radagast the Brown, but what about the other wizards who will forever remain nameless! They are probably the most forgotten of all.

[Vladivos the Rider]

What about..oh help, I can't even remember his name, even though he's one of my favourite characters smilies/frown.gif Prince IMRAHIL that's it. smilies/biggrin.gif
And Theoden's banner-bearer Guthlaf

[Finwe]

We're all forgetting Bergil! Without him, Pippin wouldn't have become so comfortable in Minas Tirith, and he wouldn't have been able to get Merry to the Houses of Healing in time.

[Arothir]

Let's not forget about Eldalote, wife of Angrod and she is my mother!

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Yeah, Finwe. And do not forget the Mouth of Sauron...the only body part of Sauron seen by all that is not a burning eye!

And the Grey Company, and the Dead Men, and all the hapless Southrons and Easterlings! Yay for all citizens of Middle Earth! smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif

*slinks off before someone brings him to a padded cell,or makes him mayor of Ea*

[Arothir]

Oh gosh! There's the master of Laketown in the Hobbit. Sure, he was greedy, but who cares! There's Floi, who was killed by an arrow according to the Book of Mazarbul.

[the guy who be short]

Some of these people are hardly forgotten. I mean, I mean, Huan, Turin and Finarfin? You'd have to have no memory to forget them!

I am angered that Daddy Twofoot is often forgotten - The Gamgee's neighbor and only other family on Bag End.

[Arothir]

I can't believe we forgot Telchar of Nogrod, maker of the Dragonhelm of Dorlomin. Of course we must give a big shout out to Vaire the Weaver, spouse of Namo Mandos!

[dragoneyes]

I second the shout for Robin Smallburrows. Yay cock-Robin!

And another cheer for Fili and Kili, why did they have to die?

I also feel that Otho is a very over looked character, Lobelia and Lotho are remembered often, but not Otho, just because he died before the main story began...

Harding, Guthlaf, Dunhere, Doerwine, Grimbold, Herefara, Herubrand, Horn, Fastred, Hirluin the Fair, Forlong the old, Derufin and Duilin. We mustn't forget these, they even have their own song so they would not be forgotten. They gave their lives on the Pelennor fields and for that they should be remembered.

Last but not least, I don't feel Snowmane gets quite the recognition he deserves. He bore his master quickly and without fear until, of course, he fell on his master and crushed him to death, but that wasn't his fault!

[Morquesse]

And of course there's Gamling! Is that spelled right? And the was a Rohan guy I don't remember the spelling: Eowain, I think? I think he was with Theodred, and when he saw Theoden recovered he was very happy.
I want to read TTT again, but it's down my reading list. smilies/frown.gif and I'm too lazy to get the the book. smilies/tongue.gif
See you later! smilies/wink.gif
~M
P.S. Maybe it was Eothain? that's closer, I think. And wasn't there a Lindir at Rivendell, too?

[Melichus]

Ingwe, king of the Vanyar (the highest elves)!

Marcho and Blanco!

Golfimbul the Orc, whose head became the world's first golf ball thanks to that crazy Bullroarer...

TOM BOMBADIL, WHO STILL HAS NOT RECEIVED ANY MENTION IN THIS THREAD.

[Vladivos the Rider]

Indeed Tom Bombadil! So often skipped over. He's certainly one of the most interesting characters.
Guy who be short, if you saw my class...I think they would probably put 'Pippin' on the always forgotten list. 'We've read the books' indeed. I never thought Imrahil was forgotten but only my best friend even seemed to know he was a character at all.

Please understand I have nothing whatsoever against people who have not read the books. I believe only that if you say you have read the books, you should have read them smilies/biggrin.gif

[ October 16, 2003: Message edited by: Vladivos the Rider ]

[dragoneyes]

I don't agree with the whole Bombadil's forgotten thing. He's rarely forgotten by people who have read the book because there's so much controversy about him and he's not forgotten by movie goers because they never knew about him in the first place.

Pippin forgotten? That's truely terrible! I'd need a really bad case of amnesia before I forgot Pippin.

[StarJewel]

How could anyone forget Beleg?!?! He was the best friend a guy could have. He kicked some serious butt with a bow. He helped a guy who he didn't even recognize. Why must people forget this awesome, sweet Elf?

*StarJewel now sees that people are staring at her like she is stark, raving mad. She goes and hides in her room.*

[Galadriel55]

Right you are! faramir is NOT EVIL!! *goes into big long rant, has to be restrained from strangling Peter Jackson*

YES YES YES!!! and not only Faramir! *goes into a rant about all the characters PJ ruined* For all the ruined characters of Ea!!! *charges at PJ, and helps Walker strangle him*

And what about Iorlas, the old 29-year-old? And Ioreth's unnamed cousin? And Widfara? Three cheers for Dernhelm (who does not even exist in the movie)!!! And let's not forget Smeagol's grandmother! Even though she doesn't play a big role, it is nonetheless important. Speaking of that, there are no UNIMPORTANT roles (*hear that, PJ?*). And the people at Elrond's council - let's not forget Erestor and that other elf whats-his-name... oh god, my memory is starting to get as bad as Barliman's! Anyway, HURRAY for all those almost forgotten but not quite! :D

[Thinlómien]

Tolkien has such lovely minor characters in LotR. My personal favourite is definitely Gildor. Háma and Erkenbrand are wonderful too. As for people only briefly mentioned, I always wanted to know more about Malbeth the Seer and the old man at the door of the Paths of the Dead!

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

Tolkien has such lovely minor characters in LotR. My personal favourite is definitely Gildor. Háma and Erkenbrand are wonderful too. As for people only briefly mentioned, I always wanted to know more about Malbeth the Seer and the old man at the door of the Paths of the Dead!

Ha! The old man, indeed, he's creepy.

My preferences about minor characters have changed during the years.

Of course, the minor characters I like I don't consider "minor". But if I were to say some really minor guys (mentioned in only a few sentences or having one or two lines in the whole story) whom I really like and whom even I consider minor, who occurs to me first is Lugdush. I think he must be cool.

And if we move to those whom I don't consider minor, but whom I think some people might (how dare they!), there will definitely be Gorbag, the one and only metaphysical philosopher of the Orcs, and of course Uglúk, who in my opinion cannot be considered a minor character in any case, because there is simply a whole chapter only about him!

From the more First-Age-type people, Aerin is definitely there.

I am sure I could think of more, but right now I am thinking in one limited circle, maybe later something will remind me of a different kind of people...

[Galadriel55]

And speaking of Arien, what about Tilion? And another first age character that is often forgotten is Aerin.
Ugluk is my favoutire orc, and he definitely is not that "minor". Gorbag is definitely "the one and only metaphysical philosopher of the Orcs", and that's saying something! :) And Gothmog is often forgotten as well - not the first age balrog, the 3rd age "vice captain".

[Morthoron]

I always thought Halbarad got a raw deal. And the other Dunedain that rode with Aragorn didn't even get mentioned by name!

[Galadriel55]

THREE CHEERS FOR HALBARAD!!!!!!!!!!! He's one of my favourite characters in LOTR :D

[Galadriel55]

Go Edrahil!!! (the one who with his 9 companions was loyal to Finrod)

[xMellrynxMaidenx]

I always thought Halbarad got a raw deal. And the other Dunedain that rode with Aragorn didn't even get mentioned by name!

I agree! Halbarad, along with the other unnamed Dunedain were my favorites (just because I love the Dunedain and their history :p)!

As someone has already mentioned too, Elladan and Elrohir. In my opinion, they may have been rarely seen in the books, but when they are Tolkien speaks highly of them. ;) So I suppose everyone considers them minor since we hardly see them, but in my mind they're not! They're actually my two most favorite characters from the series itself, their father coming in second.

Haldir was minor in the books, but not so much in the movies, as we all have seen. While I appreciate PJ making him a little more important in the movies...even if he did have to kill him *grumbles*...I prefer the Haldir from the books, his personality appealed more to me.

Gildor Inglorion. He saved the hobbits, simply by him and his company walking through the woods, singing (If memory serves me correctly)! Gildor sent word out for the others to be on the lookout for the hobbits. Had it not been for him, maybe Tom or Aragorn wouldn't have found them! And surely Lord Glorfindel wouldn't have known about them either. Well, he may have given Lord Elrond has the gift of foresight...but I digress. The point is, Gildor is just as important as any of the others!

Asfaloth. Hey, I'm horse crazy ;) I would have loved to have seen more of Asfaloth!

There's no doubt more to list, but I haven't the time to list all of them!

[Galadriel55]

I so agree about Halbarad, Elladan, and Elrohir!
And just to add to the horse list, Roheryn, Arod, Hasufel, Nahar, and Rochallor, Snowmane, Stybba, Bill, Fatty Lumpkin, Strider, Felarof, Lightfoot, Arroch, Firefoot, and Windfola.

[Babidi Buu]

And Gothmog is often forgotten as well - not the first age balrog, the 3rd age "vice captain".

The Orc from the movies? If it's the one from the movies(Still haven't read the book yet..), then I didn't think he was forgotten. I usually look at him as that orc that everyone knows and.. Hates.. :|


Well, here goes..


GO GOTHMOG, ORC LIEUTENANT OF MORGUL!
I didn't like him either when I first saw him. But i eventually got used to him and, by some strange, unusual twist of fate, he became one of my favorite characters from the films. Sure, he looks to boot, but he's a pretty cool character! Side Stepping that boulder. Admit it, it was cool when he did that.. :rolleyes: When I first watched the movie at the theaters, I looked at him as being one of those things that keep bugging you.. But after watching the movie omptean gazillion times(the extended edition atleast), it started looking more like he was a somewhat important character. It's a shame not many people really like him. :( Although I am sure there are some that think he's cool, but won't admit it.. :D


Also, Lurtz, though he isn't as bad as Gothmog when it comes to rememberence.. Even though his crime for killing Boromir is remembered and is loathed for it. Still, he's a pretty cool character as well(Ain't too shabby looking for an Uruk either!).

And with that, I offer them..
