So, were Lurtz and Ugluk the same character in the movies?
As for your second question, Lurtz female style would be too revolting to imagine! ![]()

No. Ugluk has a small speaking part in TTT.

Ugluk's fabulous line: "Look's like meat's back on the menu, boys!"
Lurtz was most definitely not in the book. Hey, Sean Bean had to have some kind of heroic, funky death scene.... *swoons*

Oh yeah, Lurtz was in command of the Uruk-Hai who pursued the Fellowship. I will say this once again: sometimes I make myself sound really stupid.

I don't view the addition of a powerful Uruk captain as taking anything away from the film.
Peter Jackson explained that they wanted to give Boromir a more significant death than just the victim of many arrows fired by random orc soldiers. To have braved the Uruk-hai warriors with arrows already twisting his insides was indeed a great act, and a fitting, heroic end to the son of Gondor. A female Lurtz? I don't think any of us would want to imagine such a thing!

Lurtz had a pretty interesting bow in the movies and I wonder if it fits descriptions of Orc bows in the books (if there are any)

But Knight, that would have been delivered had Ugluk killed Boromir.
