At least they showed it, which is good.

yAAAy! The <a href="http://www.businessweek.com/technology/content/dec2007/tc20071218_443372.htm">Hobbit movie</a> is back on!!! Movie buffs get excited!

I agree. Perhaps FBC would kindly stop accusing people of A/A-bashing.

That being said, I do adore F/E in the books. Their time in the movies was way too short. There's something about them that's more real than all the other romances-- no love at first sight, like Beren/Luthien or Aragorn/Arwen; no contrary fathers ( ), once again like those two; no quests have to be embarked on to get married (once again like Beren/Luthien. I'm not sure about A/A, since it was only Aragorn who embarked on the quest). F/E is more down-to-earth. It's something that we can imagine happenng, something that makes sense. These two have been through a lot, and now they've turned to each other and find that they've fallen in love. Did anyone notice that they shared their first kiss in the moment of the shadow's downfall?

Considering that the original plot was for Eowyn to marry Aragorn, I think that E/F turned out remarkably well, and didn't give an impression of being tacked on as an afterthought. I think that their story was the loveliest in the books, and the most successful one that Tolkien wrote.

I totally agree with you they should have showed it longer at least 10 minutes longer instead of having it for 3 minutes long.

but Im glad she found Faramir, becuase Aragorn left her.
IfI was her I would feel broken and heck yeah that I would go fight for my country to my death since there would be nothing esle to live for but honor and my people!

I can't help but want to scream at my TV every time I watch the EE. In my opinon,Aragorn and Arwen was just a tad overdone.

I love the story about Aragorn and Arwen but the should have showed some more of Faramir and Eowyn....
Ok so there in the house of healing? He smiles at her

next time

There in the Garden they hold hands and star at the surrondings...

For people who didnt read the book they wouldnt know the full story of this..

i actually love that part. i think it's just enough. i think this has been said before, but it may have ruined it if they had kissed. but don't think i'm saying they had just enough screen time - no, i think they should've had more. but in the movie, it was set up like they didn't know each other that well, and it would've been strange if they started kissing. i think holding hands is just sweet enough...and that little sigh Faramir gives. *sighs dreamily*

When Faramir is watching Eowyn,that look he has on his face kind of expresses how he feels.That scene was a good one.Both scenes were good.But if they had just started kissing out of the blue,no one would get it. If they had had more screen time,then maybe it would have been ok.

I agree with most of you that E/F time was too short in the movie, but I was just glad that they got any time at all in the Extended Edition.
In the book their stories and the development of their relationship is the most convincing and touching of all the couples for me.
I also agree that the short time they had was well done by Peter Jackson and I think that the actors did a very good job of portraying their unspoken emotions and a real sense that they would end up in love and together.
Anyway that's just how it came across to me, but we all see things differently and I respect that.

I liked the scene but it did not show alot about how Faramir and Eowyn's relationship developed ,it was one moment they were fighting..at leats Eowyn was and the next moment they look at each other and fell in love..thats what i understood of it..didnt read the books yet..
