Well I wouldn't go that far. I'm spreading my bets: I've got around five that I'm prepared to fight for. I hope at least one of them, if not two, will make the final.

I say we vote out Merry and Pippin soon, to ensure the winner is someone filmgoers have never heard of...
The pipsqueak you can have - I care little about his fate. But the day you move against Meriadoc, our allegiance is at an end.

And they know Merry and Pippin as the two short wise-cracking comedy side-kicks. And Treebeard as the tree-dude who had to be tricked into fighting. And Hama as the guy who got eaten by a Hyena - er - Wolf-thing. And Eomer as "Who's Eomer?" ...

Need I go on?

Ah, but Eomer was at least in the show. Why not support Quickbeam and press for his winning? He wasn't even mentioned. You'll really boggle the movie-goers then, if thats your pursuit.

You see. His supporters know his true nature.

Eye

And love it. Naughty but nice! Makes good viewing.

Besides, the twist in that particular tale is that Faramir, so rich that indolence is becoming boring, dons his old Ranger kit and secretly becomes an outlaw thwarting his own financiers and redistributing the gold among grateful hobbits, who know him as "Robyn Good".

Lord; I have an urge to write this...
