anyone else here think that theoden is one of the best characters in the book? he is remarkably heroic and brave, and his death in rotk is just heart-wrenching! i think he deserves some credit!

I have to admit I hadn't liked him in the book. However, after seeing the movies and balling my eyes out over his death, I've changed my mind. Definitly one of my favorite characters.

He's not one of my favourites, but I was still attached enough to him to not like his death. I guess there are too many characters in LotR for them all to be favourites, but they all have their own qualities that we can admire. Theoden was definately brave. :)

Absolutely. Theoden is one of my favourite characters. I agree with everything you said 100%

Theoden is definitely one of my favorites. He had so many things to think about, and he kept a cool head.

I love Theoden! He is definitely one of my favorites. This is going to sound so weird but I kind of make relationships with characters and I'm very close to him. He reminds me of like a father figure....*has creeped everyone out with her strange "I think of characters as real people" type thing* :P

No, not strange at all. I see him very much as a father figure too.

I really like theoden. At first he is just a poor person that has been taken over by evil, then he renews his strength and turns out to be a great hero. Brave and heroic.

Ala, I'm reasonably sure I know what you mean. Theoden was...is...very much a father figure.

Hello :) . I agree. Theoden was very valiant in the Battle of Pellenor Fields and I have always admired the people of Rohan for their love of land and horses. Three cheers for Theoden :wave: !

I think she means Theoden, since the thread is about him.
