My favorite person is no doubt Boromir, but Dwarves are my favorite race in general. Elves just seem snobbish to me, men, men are prone to seduction and desire power, dwarves they are my type of race they give you respect if you treat them with respect back.

A thing the movie didn't show was the relationship between elves and dwarves. Dwarves and noldor elves, being from Aule, have a connection, and were always friendly with eachother, thats why Galadriel and Gimli were always kind with eachother. Same with Rivendell elves, Elrond and Gloin grew a great respect for eachother, and Gloin was well known. Elrond from the movie sounded like he hated dwarves, well heck he hated everyone "dwarve's this, men are weak I hate them, heck I even hate my own elves."

To answer the question of my favorite dwarf, I said it above, Gloin. Gloin had grown respect with his trip with Bilbo, he sat at Elrond's supper, and also talked the whole time with Frodo. Dwarves weren't always that friendly with hobbits but Gloin respected Bilbo and therefor respected his heir Frodo.
