I didn't say that she was the most impressive female, but she was impressive in some way. She raised her children alone (okay, many females do that), she sent away her son for his own saftey (that must have been hard) and then she followed him, although it was dangerous. She searched for him and didn't want to stay resting in Doriath. I think the love for her children must have been very strong.

Yes. My heart always went out to her when I read the story, such a tragedy.

Might it be that gorgeous Linaewen is the leader of the Orli fangirls? Or did I misunderstand this?

I wouldn't say she really was impressive. What did she do? She married Elrond and gave him three children. She was taken by Orcs and tomented, and then went across the sea. There's just not much to her character.

Just wanted to start a discussion, as our last post were probably all off-topic.

It seems that this has become an exhausted thread.

True, but there are only so many impressive female characters in the books, and I think they have probably all been covered.

Yes, it seems so. Everyone spoke their mind and then that's it. Either you saw their point of view or that was it. There's not much more to say.

Well, there are a couple things we can do here. We can quit discussing, unless someone has something to say about the topic, and let the thread die a nice peaceful death, or, I can close the thread.

Just to prevent the thread from dying:
I think Rose Cotton is an impressive female character Not everyone could win the heart of Sam. I hope we get to see Rose in the RotK film.

I think we will see her, because Elanor will be in the movie, too.

Aw, will cute little Elanor be in the film? But she was born quite some time after the Ring was destroyed. Does that mean we'll get to see everything that happened at the end of RotK, like how Frodo and Bilbo sailed west from the Grey Havens?

Gee guys, this is becoming a movie thread now. You're really making my job difficult.

There really is no more to say on this topic. Closing.
