Re: Eomer
Lem

yes, i was very disappointed by eomer's apparant lack of existance in RotK! i really liked him when reading the book, and am appreciating him even more reading it again now.
i look at him as a wise character, who is also a leader and a warrior, but only his warrior side is shown in TTT and RotK...especially in that scene where Eowyn is outfitting Merry with armor and he tells her that it's useless, and all the men laugh at his jokes about Merry's size. that, to me, didn't seem to quite fit with my image of him...it seemed very crude.

and i hated how they didn't explain faramir! or whatever happened to eomer! he was really gyped.
