Silmaril

As far as I can tell, I believe he is supposed to be Prince Imrahil of the Dunedain.

1420!

I heard that guy was Imrahil too. PJ threw in some names from LOTR for his characters. And for some reason he named Faramir's lieutenant Madril, instead of sticking with Mardil, maybe Madril has a better ring.

My personal opinion is the elf accompanying Arwen to the Havens is Glorfindel, just PJ trying to get a jab at us

Imrahil... that guy?? Gah-- say it aint so! I'd rather have him not there at all, than have him be parodied like that.

Maybe Glorfindel was at the coronation.

Nah, that elf that talked to Arwen's name is "Elven Escort." Catchy ain't it?

Glorfindel's supposed to be this dude at Aragorn's corination. He looks so stupid. Not at all deserving of the name of a mighty Elf-lord. *click*

Nobody could look so that he deserved the name of a mighty Elf-lord.

He looks sad to me. Not stupid.

Imrahil?! I don't think so, that's more a Elvish name then a name of a Dunedain/Gondorian. Maybe it's Berethor of The Third Age !

Pipe From the Books

According to the Books, those lines concerning Faramir's state were spoken by Beregond, another character who didnt make it, or make it completely to film.

The elven Escort leading Arwen on horseback I'd suspect to being one of her brothers, elves-turned-rangers, and close comrades of Stridex, oops, Arogant, uh, The Elfstone. (hoping nobody got too offended at that, lol!)

The mouth of Sauron was not at all what I expected, good, but different, "Mauthon" as I call him, supposedly had flames coming from his eyes and ears maybe? On a side note, didnt those teeth remind you of Gilbert Gottfreid? Thank god HIS voice did'nt make it there.

Imrahil is Adunaic I believe or quasi adunaic..... although Imrahil's children have Elvish names ....

(Geez! I went on vacation for a week and there are like 500000000 new threads to visit! I'll have to be online tonight for like 15 hrs. straight. Oh wait, i don't have a problem with that. )

The "Elven escort's" name is actually Figwit. I have no idea where this name came from. Maybe PJ or maybe some obsessive compulsive fans, who knows? Anyway there are several hundred fan girls obsessed with him just like all the other boys of the fellowship.

That's an interesting question thought, where did the name Figwit come from? Anybody know?

Tolkien Figwit

Figwitis usually understood to be this elf: Figwit

His name is an acronym meaning "Frodo is great, Who is that?" The members of the Near-Sighted Elf Society, like Eowyn Skywalker, can tell you more about him.

Maybe the unamed charachter of Trotk is that Gondorian with the long blond hair that says to Gandalf when Gandalf and Faramir are talking on the courtyard: '' I knew it was going to happen, long has Lord Denethor forseen this'' Or something like that
