I forgot who Asfaloth is... I know he's a horse, but which horse is he? It's driving me nuts!!!!!!!!!!

Asfaloth is Glorfindel's horse that Frodo rides to Rivendell.

Even the horse had a much larger part in the Book than the movie. See Liv stole the horses glory too.! j/k

Yeah, the poor horse didn't get any glory in the movie.

They should have let Glorfindel at least u know say "Hey, I could have saved u, but I was cut out." and "OH by the way that was my horse, smart little thang ain't he?"

It was a bad surprise to see Glorfindel's - and Asfaloth - scene cut on FOTR, with Arwen stoling the scene from him and from Gandalf too.

But Ok. Everyone like Liv as Arwen.

I understand the cut, but it is still sad!

yeap

LOL

why did you come here and ask???..........all you had to do was to search it on any search engine.

She came and ask us because we are such knowlegeable, charming, wonderful, beautiful, devoted, slightly crazy LOTR fans. And we know all, see all, and hear all.


Or maybe it was because she was lazy and didn't want to look around.

Either one will work.

I'm a he....... not a she Aurora...... but thanks for the answer... that one was killing me.

My bad!!! Wasn't paying attention to what I wrote!!!

We are a search engine

...Personal, critic and emotional search engine

That sounds like a pretty good reason for me! But I would go to the Encyclopedia of Arda first myself.

We're alot more beautiful!

HA!!
most people think ima a guy!

thats kinda funny i think!! hahaha! no offence though

lol.

None taken...

k

Nazgul's horses are sooooooo much better!!!!! Besides....they could've caught Asfaloth....they were just going with the story!!

they are so much cooler on horses, thay are cooooooll!

Though the Witch King on the Fell Beast was AWESOME!

Yeah Asfaloth is the Elven horse Arwen rides on with injured Frodo to Rivendell. It's too bad it didn't have a bigger role in the movies.

I like Asfaloth better than the Nazgul's horses. I mean who could outrun nine of them BUT Asfaloth? Are all you people Nazgul fans?

Duuuuuude Galadir!!! Asfaloth made it look like any horse can outrun the Nazgul horses but really the Nazgul horses are really much faster because really in the book, Arwen didn't ride Frodo across the river!! PJ replaced Glorfindel with Arwen

So basically Nazgul horses are much faster.....Exa, Sauron, and Naz will agree....

*didn't sound like she had a point in her last post....*

I AGREE! I AGREE!

the nazgul horses are much faster, but since thay added that river they had to make them slowere so arwen could be on one side them in the middle, and the stream run them away. and it was so unfair, if you watch the chase scene between them you will watch arwen and her horse jump over a seemingly big long, witch id actually qiute small, and they do all this low motion, and film her from the bottum, and {oooh watch arwen jump over the seemingly big log, lets drop our jaws in awe} and then the ringwraiths jumps over it and they don't even show much of it, just the landing the chasing after arwen, no big deal, i mean EVEN THOUGH IT JUMPED OVER THE LOG TOO!

Totally man and guys notice the Nazgul's caught up with Asfaloth!?!? Duh!!!

yeah, they were neck and neck (man, i sound like an anouncer for some horse race) then they got in this triangle formation behing her and stuff, but they cought up with them

It's totally safe to assume that Arwen had an advantage but the Nazgul's STILL caught up to her....and may I bring up the fact that they're immortal!

IMMORTAL!!! and they have enough sence not to give it away to some person! *cougharagoncough* i need to get that cough checked out it is getting worse... anyway... and the ringwraiths ran all the way from mordor after her, and they were burned right before that, so they had the sdded disadvantage of thrid degree burns, and already having run from mordor to weatertop about 4 hours ago

True! If Aragorn didn't have that torch they would've beaten him!

yeah! and frodo would have already been dead! so they could have ambused arwen and got her to!

Uh huh!! Yup!! *nods because she can't find the smiliy*

it's :yes : but with no spaces

hehe

Buuuuut anywho....Oh and the Nazgul horses have their own armor!!! Unlike Asfaloth!

they are coolio

Shadowfax could have.

shadowfax wasn't even gandalf's horse then

What do you mean? I know in the movie they didn't make him look nearly as fast as he was in the books, but according to the book, he was the fastest horse in middle earth.

in fotr gandalf rode a brown horse, he didn't get shadowfax till TTT

Shadowfax isn't Gandalf's horse, he's just the Lord of the Horses and we're talking about Horses in ownership....like the Nazgul horses.

erm bit offtopic, isnt it?


(nazgul horses are far faster than asfaloth :] at least when arwen rides him :P )
