Ah, yes, not in this thread. I've posted a few other places, but not in the right thread. Anyway, here it is officially.

Of course, Glorfindel was in the book too... but I don't think Gimli will be cut out or anything. Maybe mocked mercilessly, but he will be on the Paths of the dead.

Do we know that for certain? They turn up with the rangers and since that hasn't happened in the movies yet they wouldn't have been in it.
I know there's rumours going about but does anyone actually KNOW they wont be in the movies? |

I was reading the Tolkien's famous "all those who wander are not lost" poem about Aragorn and the sword-that-was-broken last night. I was struck by how powerful and dramatic that poem is and then I suddenly got excited when I realized it will probably be spoken in the next movie...by Arwen when she gives the sword to Aragorn.
How does that strike the rest of you? |

Gah! I bet your right! That two-timing little...First, she steals Glorfindel's horse, lines, and screen-time; then, she steals time which could have been spent developing the Ents, or sending Frodo into Shelob's lair, and now she'll probably finish her career with stealing Bilbo's poem, if not Eowyn's Nazgul-smiting sequence thingummy! What twit told PJ there was an Elf princess?

My opinion
If you really are anticipating what is going to happen with Arwen in the Return of the King, stop first and look back to what they have already done. For instance, Arwen was only introduced in Rivendell when she was seated beside Elrond (this part being in the Fellowship of the Ring). This was the only time she was featured in the book. Now, look how much they have blown up her character! (I wish she would be blown up) Then, in the Two Towers, she wasn't featured at all, yet her part in this movie may have been longer than her part in the Fellowship. Now, considering she was on a few pages in the Return of the King after marrying Aragorn, she'll most likely take up the whole movie. That said, she'll probably jump in front of the screen, wrestle the Ring from Frodo and Gollum, and destory the Ring herself. So... what dost thou think of my theory? I'd much enjoy a private message if you will. This is but merely what I'm hypothesizing.

'What are we going to do now then?' asked Pippin, undaunted by the wizard's bristling brows. "Knock on the door with your head, Peregrin Took,' said Gandalf. 'But if that does not shatter them, and I am allowed a little peace from foolish questions, I will seek for the opening words.' 'Fool of a Took!' he growled.

Ouch... I hope not straight face. And Gwaimir, when you posted that spoiler, you were just kidding right? Uh... right??
In answer to someone's previous question, the "All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost..." poem was written by Bilbo about Aragorn. He recites in in FotR at the council of Elrond to stick up for Aragorn. (This is that part where, in the movie, Legolas is like "respect Aragorn fool!") It wouldn't make sense for Arwen to recite it, but it is possible. I don't think she will have as much screen time as many of you speculate. She was hardly in TTT, even though that much was built on nothing.

Maybe Arwen will be safing Faramir from his father or she'll be on the boats as the beautiful sailor woman. *gg*

She will give up her immortality to live with Aragorn, all you have to do is read the apendix in the third book.

I think they made Arwen to lovesick for my liking. She was hardly metioned in the books, except for the appendix, as Gaporli said.
Did you post twice on purpose?
