I hate it when people stereo type. Neurion, you're a guy?

I would have liked at least some recognition that he became King. I was surprised that that was not in the extended version.
I would agree exept that it would have been ending #12 or something like that. Also I think that people who hadn't read the book would naturally asume that he would become king of Rohan anyway.

Unfortunatly Eomer wasn't one of my favorites from the book *ducks flying objects* so I can't really give my opinion on the changes that were made.

However, I must say that Karl Urban did a fantastic acting job. The few times he was on screen I couldn't take my eyes away from him.

I think we can all agree that the most important thing was how hot he looked.

lol - well I did swoon when I saw this short haired clean shaven guy with amazing bone structure in my Empire souvenir photo collection ... I just could hardly believe it was the same guy ...guess they had to hide him under all the hair to stop everyone ignoring Viggo, Orli etc ... *thud*

1420! You aren't crazy.

Yes you can spot Eomer's sword slip out of it's hilt. So, you aren't crazy, unless we both are?

Huzzah a thread about Eomer! He's such a good character. A very noble man indeed. It's a disappoint that he's not in PJ's Battle of Helm's Deep, but he was replaced by Elves in the movie. Which makes me giggle because that means he's worth 300 some Elves. And he saved the day with Riders. Which I personally like more then having Erkenbrand whose only moment of glory is saving Theoden at Helm's Deep. But it's a crying shame Karl Urban's role as Eomer seemed so small.
