I loved her and couldn't wait to see whom they casted... and Miranda is so perfect for her... so wonderful... admittedly at first I hated Arwen lol because she was all over the place and kissing aragorn and all... but admittedly... through TTT and finally in RotK i can't hate her anymore... that scene when she sees her son and Viggo... and all... she is wonderful... But I like Eowy better she is so brave and my all time favorite scene... "I AM NO MAN!" hug Laila -------------------- Some say the world will end in fire / Some say in ice.

Sure, Eowyn's the "brave ans strong" one, but honestly, I think that Arwen just as brave, if not braver. She gives up her immortality for God's sake! Now that's pretty brave. Eowyn's all "Life's unfair, I wan't to be brave and die!" Uh, no. Hehe. I love Arwen's character. -------------------- Blood Brothers - COMING SOON.

Auguries of Sin Group: Summer '04 Awards Winners Posts: 1,453 Member No.: 4 Joined: 29-November 03	Yeah... but also she is like the essance of a woman... because we are strong but normally not really for ourselves. And she turns into a weak insecure girl almost facing her dream man... I dunno she is great! And she get's cutre Faramir in the end... But it's true Arwen is more for Aragorn... It is not only tradition, but also, I dunno she is more kingly... More... equal to him... But I really don't get that fact of the movie... at first in FotR... She says she gives her immortality to Aragorn... but before she gives it to Frodo?! And then in RotK her life is suddenly bound to the ring... WTF?! I really don't get that mortality/immortality thing she's got going there... -------------------- Some say the world will end in fire / Some say in ice.

Arwen is very nice looking POINT And eowyn gets Faramir (the faramir from the book (the one in the movies s*cks) is my prince charming, so if you'd ever meet somebody like that, wrap him up and send him to my adress) anyway Faramir is perfect (or at least great) and so is his lady. Aragorn is great as well mmmhh -------------------- si tu veux regarder ça ne me gêne pas et tu peux écouter si tu restes la-bas tu l'as vu tu le veux mais le truc est à moi oui je sais dans tes rêves tout le monde est à toi ne touche pas c'est à moi pourquoi pas donne moi ça Touche pas-vive la fete

Everything about her screams "GIRL POWER!" and you just can't argue with that. -------------------- OFG Official Floffum Groupie Now, now, jealousy is not a pretty color on you.

I read the appendix that mentions the story of Arwen and Aragorn..it is also very sweet..but yeah, I still was confused in the movie with her mortality/immortality stuff...it seemed to shift around a bit too much. I think I like Eowyn because she is more real - not as perfect as Arwen...and she feels the pain of unrequitted love, which I think everyone can appreciate. She is so strong and brave (yes..Arwen is as well). I think the casting for both roles was spot on. Kudos to the casting agents. -------------------- "Destiny is a name often given in retrospect to choices that had dramatic consequences" - JKR "I am deranged, but so so playful" - Sammy Davis Jr. Jr.

I love that Eowyn is so cold and sad... and then when she meets Faramir they fall in love... wonderful and classic! But I also love that Eowyn is a warrior woman... the only strong woman in the books... or well Galadriel is strong too... Yeah I like Galadriel too even tough she is a bit scary... -------------------- ______________ step over to the darkness, we have cookies

Her sacrifice of immortality for the one she loves is so beautiful. And I guess she's closer to me than Eowyn anyway and that's why I like her. Though Eowyn is a great lass as well. But my preferences are with the elflady of Rivendell winks at Nat/Black Rose Eternal discussion, eh? -------------------- One man to rule them all

Uruk-Hai Group: Members Posts: 43 Member No.: 93 Joined: 7-December 03	winks at Fin =)) Exactly! However it depends on my mood so much! But mainly I`d like to be a warrior myself! So EOWYYYYYN! Btw, there is no poll, is there? -------------------- That`s me....Nataly from EWFN! ;D

Elf of Rivendell Group: Members Posts: 1,890 Member No.: 228 Joined: 26-February 04	I like them both. Eowyn shows womens independance. Showing were just as good as any man. Arwen is the beautiful princess type character. And her and Aragorn... Awww! Even though Eowyn had heroic struggle, didn't Arwen also struggle? She chose a mortal life... But who could blame her. I would do the same if I was that in love. Galadriel is a interseting character too. Equally as beautiful as Arwen and Eowyn. She comes across as wise and I think her scarier edge made me like her more. Much Love, Louise.
