What's so bad about Eowyn?

Started by Orli'sElf79 pages

aww well undomiel, she was just relieved he was ok!!! he couldve died in that battle ya kno. i like both of tha female characters.!!

besides legolas, eowyn's my favorite character, i can't wait for rotk, for those of you who know what i'm talking about, that scene is going to be the coolest duel!!! aAAHH

I thought Eowyn was one of the most ownage char's in the books

I heard that eyowen dosnt, you know what, and Gandalf does, in the movie.

I do like Eowyn, for the fact that she is a strong Character. And a female to Boot. But i dislike the actress that plays her. My explaination for that is , She plays the part so well on her attraction to Aragorn, it gives off a slight hint she would stop at nothing to get him. Even if that meant knocking Arwen out of the picture.... She seems Statigically Sly.

A messed up reason for disliking an Actress and a character, but hey.. That's my two cents worth n.n;;...... Sometime i'll get into the Book and see the Character Aowyn and make my decision without the Actress in the way.

About what Aragorn#1 said, Eowyn does get to do you-know-what; Gandalf has a similar part in the book to Eowyn's with that. They both do.

Eowyn is the best and most in depth characters that Tolkien ever wrote. I don't get why people hate her so much. She does love Eowyn, and to all you people out there who say that she ignore what Aragorn says about he and Arwen, if you listen carefully, he says that she has sailed away to the Undying Lands. Therefore, it's over. But she respects the love that he still has for her. If Arwen hadn't chased Aragorn to Minas Tirith, he never would have married her.

So there, so no more Eowyn bashing!

Shieldmaiden.

thanks for saying that. 😄

thank you on to another topic now.......and no more orli threads either

grr i think we'll run out of threads to start until the movie starts then the forum will be SWAMPED

i agree wit lotrluver, the books she awsome,
Spoiler:
she killed a ring wraith..
but the movie she's annoying....

Eowen: "duh..who gave u that purty jewl...duh duh.....like,, where is she?"

Aragorn: "(day-dream.......)

😂
he's not only day dreaming, he's ignoring her stupid @$$ 🤣

hes not ignoring her, he is just reflecting and thinking about arwen. and u can tell aragorn likes eowyn (not as much as arwen, but still...) because if u watch the movies she always makes him smile and it seems as thought they r good friends. after the battle at helms deep, they embrace like old fgriends, he was definetly not ignoring her

i'll do as much eowyn bashing as i like thank you.. it's still a free country as i presume... unless u guys have mysteriously taken over the country and removed free speech.. Shieldmaidem how can u say Eowyn is the most indepth character that Tolkien created.. obviously u aren't reading too much into the novel, coz there's no way u could back that up. i reckon she's such a trie hard in the books.... she acts like a spoilted brat wanting all the attention with that stupid i can fight tantrum she threw in the movie.. like don't get me wrong.. i think it's kewl that Tolkien had female fighters in his book, but did it have to be her.. she's acts like a spoilt child.. specially in the house of healing when she met farimer

p.s I hate it wen eowyn says "I can fight" I cant help but shout back at the film "no u cant" lol

I was just reading over this and I would like to correct that. SHE CAN TOO FIGHT! All those who have read the books know that! All those who haven't, you're in for a HUGE shock! So, sucked in!
And to the comment about me not knowing anything about the books, I am a Tolkien fan, thank you very much. If you liked Eowyn then you can understand why I have said that. I have studied Eowyn and I see parts of her in myself (not stealing other ppls b/f tho, that isn't her book character). To those who say Arwen in a very in-depth character (I hope there aren't), I say WTF! She has maybe two mentions in the ENTIRE BOOK (not including appendices but that's only 1 section)

sam, how is she a spoit brat?

Settle down! Allow for the fact that people have only "met" Eowyn in TTT movie, and not Eowyn of the book. I am also fairly new to LOTR having been introduced to ME only in 1998-99 when I first read the Hobbit and then subsequently reading the book and then being a "fan" since watching FOTR then TTT.

It's an interpretation of the book and although I do think the movie adds to the book experience, it maybe worth people's while to actually read the book and find out for themselves how Tolkien portrayed Eowyn (and his other characters). I know we only got a glimpse of Eowyn in the TTT movie and will see more of her in ROTK.

Who knows I may even grow to like the lady who plays her 😐 Not that I dislike her, if that makes sense. I'm still not entirely sure how I feel about MO.

*bumpity*

*ahem*

😄

Does anyone have an answer on how Éowyn is a spoiled brat? 😕

Because maybe:

My window does not look east.

If you were sick with a deadly disease and stuck in a stuffy room all day, you'd at least want a view of things too! So no more calling Éowyn a brat, because she's not, unless you have more proof? 🙄

*end of small rant* 😛

Go ving!!!!!!!! 😄 i'm with ya on that! ✅

ty 😎

muahaha 👿 *wants some Arwen lovers/Éowyn haters to come and bash meeeee* 😊

Shadowy can whip up an excellent pro-Éowyn post ✅

Also, she did not steal Aragorn, she's happy with Faramir in the end, so a "NYAH!!" to those who are still holding a grudge against Éowyn for liking Aragorn!! 😛

Yeesh...I feel so evil...😉
