Arwen Undomiel

Personally I choose...................a mixture of both. I mean, Arwen's Elfiness and Eowyn's death.

It's an insult to Blackheart, an orc. I like Elves too.

Wrests thread back on topic: So, Arwen, or Eowyn? Most people seem to favour the human, over the elf. Could this be subliminal racism, or am I just making up a pile of guano to justify my posting here?

PS - If you really want to annoy orcs, just withold their killing privileges.

It is not racism, it's just that this particular Elf is rather boring. I like Elves.

Pffft.

*Kills a small furry animal*

Elves taste like ashes, prance around, and can't go to the bathroom without using sanitary seat covers.

At least 'umans get good and sweaty when you chase 'em.

If you changed Arwen to Luthien or Galadriel, I'd probably choose the elf.

Yeah. If any racism is involved, it's against humans.

I'm usually more in favor of elves...not rascism...okay, maybe a little () but in the case of Arwen vs. Eowyn, I say Eowyn because it's a case of individual character, and there are a number of reasons why I like Eowyn's character better. If I were choosing between two different characters, one elf and one human, it might be different.

Yeah, so some of us just prefer the character of Arwen, no matter how little she was developed(please no word play)

Inter-speciesism, and I do stand corrected.

In the movie at least they got the right person for Arwen, she doesn't look messed up. I've got to see the TT trailer.

Eowyn for some reason just doesn't appeal to me. I'd rather hhave the elf.
