People, perhaps a recommendation on reading Unfinished Tales will help with the Galadriel and Celeborn angle!
Okay, maybe I am partial…. THEY are my favorite couple! I don’t care what anyone says… I’m relying on ALL the books not just LOTR.
No love between them?????? Sheeeez....
Galadriel CHOSE Celeborn OVER Celebrimbor (THE Ring Maker, fer cryin’ out loud!). I think in LOTR, Celeborn was pictured in less stature… but anyone ever wonder why he’s called Celeborn the Wise? He no longer wanted to stay in Lothlorien when Galadriel left, and was said to have followed her to the West afterwards.
(He wasn’t just a decoration at the side of ME’s MOST powerful FEMALE Eldar. He also helped Thranduil after the War of the Ring, to clear out Mirkwood of the nasty beasties, renaming it to Eryn Lasgalen. And he w/ Galadriel tried to thwart Feanor at the first Kinslaying…. Okay, so I’m babbling! uuummm... is it obvious that I'm a fan? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Not of Cate Blanchett and what's-his-name! the characters in the BOOKS!!!).
Worst couple choice?
1)Erendis and Aldarion. They completely fell out of love.
2)Ar-Pharazôn and Miriel. Sheez, forcing her to marry him so he would be king! And they’re cousins!
3) Turin and Nienor Niniel. What a tragic story! They didn’t know they were brother and sister because Glaurung put a spell on her.
4)Eol and Aredhel. He forced her to live apart from her people and didn't hesistate to try and kill her when she disobeyed him.
Melkor and Ungoliant? Sauron and Shelob? [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]
