The Number of Major Characters - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I wouldn't consider Elrond or Bilbo a major character, or, for Jackon's list, Sauron. Arwen isn't really a major character except for her 'decision.'<P>Also, Legolas and Gimli seemed to be tied together throughout most of the movies. Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas never part from each other (except for the silly falling-off-the-cliff deal), and thus, they get plenty of time together.<P>The same can be said of Merry and Pippin (until their Rohan/Gondor split), and Arwen (whose time is mostly shared with Aragorn, or Frodo in the ride to Rivendell).<P>I'm sure he was just estimating though.<p>[ May 31, 2003: Message edited by: Legolas ]
