The Mirthies
If you could make up an award like the Oscar and give it to one of the characters, what would it be?
Peace, Vuelve

Well, the Middle-Earth Mirthies Award Show would have categories for book-verse stuff, not just characters. That's a prospect to go on. It would be sort of like the SAG Awards, more so than like the Oscars at least. Now, votes would not be based on how generally good someone is, just how much you think they deserve the votes for....
Stuff along the lines of... ~Best Overall Character~ ~Best Female Character~ ~Best Male Character~ ~Best Cameo Appearance~ ~Best Overall Villain~ ~Best Monster/Creature Character~ ~Best Comedic Character~ ~Best Character Monologue/Speech~ ~Best Overall Death Scene~ Yeah...stuff like that...must think of my votes.

Hmm, what about the equivalent of the Razzies? (The Evil smilie is gone! *sniffle* )
~Worst Overall Character~ ~Worst Female Character~ ~Worst Male Character~ ~Worst Cameo Appearance~ ~Worst Overall Villain~ ~Worst Monster/Creature Character~ ~Worst Comedic Character~ ~Worst Character Monologue/Speech~ ~Worst Overall Death Scene~ For Worst Death Scene...Aragorn's fake one. For Worst Female Character...Arwen. Hmm, this is hard!

Good topic! Let me see what I can do...
Worst Overall Villain: The pig-orc at the Pelennor Fields who should have been a lot scarier-looking. Worst Monster/Creature Character: Those big ugly mutant hyena things that have the nerve to call themselves "wargs".

Hmm...
Worst Overall Character: Legolas! "A diversion!" That has to be one of the worst lines ever. Worst Female Character: ARWEN *shudder* Worst Male Character: Uh...can I say Legolas again? Worst Comedic Character: Gimli. At least hobbits are supposed to be rather funny.

Let's see... Possible awards might be:
~ Best/worst hairstyle: (Any ideas?) ~ Most dramatic last line: Sam (He has the last line, so it MUST be dramatic! ) Also, are we judging from the books or the movies? |

Since the Oscars is a movies award show, I intended the Mirthies tho be movie based also.But since nothing here on Middle Earth Mirth goes as planned it doesent really matter.Let 'controled' chaos ensue!!!
Peace, Vuelve

Nonono, no worsts in the books! Just movie worsts. Bests in the books are good.
I definately agree with Denethor being the Worst Death Scene.

Um, did Sleepy Ranger not just do that?
Here are my choices; they are a combination of the books and the movies: Best overall character: Faramir (only person other than Aragorn who resisted the temptation of the Ring; exellent captain of the army) Best male character: Aragorn (come on, he gets to be the king, and look at what he goes through to get there) Best female character: Eowyn (takes out the Witch-King, need I say more?) Best creature: Treebeard (best visual effects done on an inanimate object ever; plus his voice sounded exactly the way I thought it should) Best monster: The Watcher in the Water (the scene was a little longer than it should have been, but the visuals were worth it) Best villain: Sauruman (Sauron is just a flaming eyeball, Sauruman is much more active in carrying out his plans for world domination) Best monologue: Aragorn's "This day we fight" speech (exellent, it set the tone for the scene very well; but his voice got a little funny in some places) Best dramatic scene: Faramir and his men riding to their doom (Pippin's song added a lot more feeling to this scene, but it was good just by itself) Best death scene: Boromir's (most realistic looking, plus most moving) Best comic character: Pippin ("Fool of a Took!" and "What about elevenses, lunch, dinner, supper, afternoon tea?! He knows about those right?" kill me every time) Best Maia: Gandalf (who knows how many centuries old, and he still kicks a$$) Most missed chacter: Glorfindel (having Arwen rescue Frodo just killed that whole scene) Best supporting character: Samwise Gamgee (do I really need to explain this one?) And now for the other end of the stick: Worst overall character: Sauron (he just stays in Barad-dur all the time and looks around; even Legolas is better than that) Worst male character: Haldir (totally unnecessary at Helm's Deep, and his death scene was terrible) Worst female character: Arwen (in far too many scenes, and her acting wasn't that great) Worst creature: The Wargs (give me a break, they looked like hybrid hyenas!) Worst monster: Shelob (about half the size I imagined, and not terribly frightening) Worst villain: Sauron (see "Worst overall chacter") Worst monologue: Any of Frodo's (well, his last one in "Return of the King" wasn't too bad, but he just killed the rest of them) Worst dramatic scene: Faramir and Frodo squaring off over the one Ring (let me just say that this never happened that way, and Faramir resisted the temptation of the Ring) Worst death scene: Haldir's (not in the book, and a waste of slow-motion effects which also made the awful scene longer) Worst comic character: Gimli (I'm not even touching this one) Worst Maia: Sauron (see "Worst villain") Least missed chacter: Tom Bombadil (sorry, but his constant singing in the books really annoyed me) Worst supporting character: Grima Wormtongue (reminded me too much of Snape from "Harry Potter")

I have filled in my ballot and there are no hanging chads
Best Overall Character: Aragorn (He's the king!) Best Female Character: Galadriel (I have always felt a connection to her) Best Male Character: Aragorn (I love the man) Best Cameo: Write in for Viggo's son (without him we wouldn't have had Viggo) Best Villain: Saruman (I just shiver every time i see him) Best Creature: Treebeard (He gave us a taste of Tom Bombadil) Best Comedy: Pippin (It comes in pints) Best Monolog: Aragorn (Rousing Courageous) Best Death: Theoden (He made me cry) Best Battle: Pellenor (One mumakil down, two mumakil down . . . ) Best Maia: Gandalf (Is there really any better?) Best Dramatic Moment: Pippin's song/Faramir's charge (I listen to it every day) Most pitied character: *Smeagol* (He's such a cute little thing) Most missed: Tom Bombadil (Hey, his boots are yellow!) Best Harido: Legolas (If you can fight battles without misplacing a strand - you must be good) Worst overall character: Arwen (I can't believe she almost left!) Worst female character: Arwen (stupid scene stealing, elf impersonating . . . .) Worst Male Character: Elrond (He was mean, Elrond is not mean) Worst Cameo: PJ's first (that was icky) Worst Villain: Sauron's Eye (Gothmug was also Lux so I couldn't bring myself to vote for him) Worst Monster: Shelob (Wasn't that scary) Worst Monologue: Frodo (I just didn't like it) Worst Maia: Sauron - when he was just an eye (he was cool with a body) Worst Hairdo: Haldir (It didn't match his eyebrows)

Most missed scene: the Houses of Healing (this will change after EEE RotK)
Scene that made the most shivers run up my spine: the ending of the battle of Helm's Deep. That was just heroic. Runner-up: Galadriel's "but there were some who resisted. A last alliance of men and elves marched against the armies of Mordor...". It's also heroic! |

Um ahem Nemrothiel:
Sam was not even mildly tempted by the Ring. He WORE it at didn't get possessed. No offence to Faramir. He did very well.

Best Creature: Bill the Pony Best Comedy: Any light-hearted hobbit jokes Best Monologue: Well, okay, here's a movie one: Sam's speech in Osgiliath Best Death: Theoden Best Battle: The Battle of the Pelennor Fields! Best Maia: Gandalf, of course Best Dramatic Moment: Movies: Pippin's song/Faramir's charge, books: The Cracks of Doom and The End of All Things..... Most pitied character: Sam, poor guy...... And Frodo..... Most missed: The movies need more Beregond! Best Harido: Boromir- it always looks messy but good. Okay, this is going to have to be all movies........ Worst overall character: Gollum, not because of a bad performance, but because he's a sneak....... Worst female character: None..... Worst Male Character: Elrond (He was Agent Elrond, so wrong....) Worst Cameo: PJ's first (it's just weird) Worst Villain: Sauron, but that's a compliment........... Worst as in bad would go to the orc whose warg Aragorn got attached to......

Sorry about splitting up the category Sleepy. When I said that Faramir was the only other man who resisted the Ring, I meant just that. Sam may resemble a man, and hobbits may be distantly related to men, but as we don't entirely know this for certain I think of hobbits and men as two different races.
Huh, Aragorn's winning; there must not be any Leggy-boppers looking at this topic.

~Best Female Character~ Eowyn (need I explain?) ~Best Male Character~ Elrond... ~Best Cameo Appearance~ Viggo's son ~Best Overall Villain~ Saruman ~Best Monster/Creature Character~ The Witch King (that's who I want to be when I grow up) ~Best Comedic Character~ Pippin ~Best Character Monologue/Speech~ Aragorn ~Best Overall Death Scene~ Denethor (I went to the movie for the fourth time just to see him fly off the pinnacle of Minas Tirith) ~Best Battle~ Helms Deep (but for the Elves it would have been perfect) ~Best Maia~ Gandalf ~Most Dramatic Moment~ Pippin's song (*sniff*) ~Most Pitied Person/Creature~ Gollum ~Most missed character~ Glorfindel, ~Best hairdo~ Galadriel ~Best supporting character~ Merry (he doesn't ever get any credit) ~Worst Overall Character~ Arwen ~Worst Female Character~ Arwen ~Worst Male Character~ Frodo (grrrrr) ~Worst Cameo Appearance~ PJ ~Worst Overall Villain~ Shelob ~Worst Monster/Creature Character~ Wargs (If that was even part wolf, then I'm a hobbit) ~Worst Comedic Character~ Gimli ~Worst Character Monologue/Speech~ Frodo (double grrrrrr) ~Worst Overall Death Scene~ Haldir ~Worst Maia~ Sauron ~Worst Hairdo~ Aragorn ~Worst dramatic scene~ Arwen dropping the book (don't ask me why, that just always bothered me) ~Least missed chacter~ Tom Bombadil ~Worst supporting character~ Grima Wormtongue That was possibly one of the most blasphemous things I've ever done (to the books, mind you). But it was fun anyway.

Hmmm.. this topic seems to have gotten a little out of hand, this is not quite what I had in mind.It looks like something that should be moved to the movies section.I didn't mean for you to take Oscar seriously.Example; Best overall character, Best cameo, etc... I meant for this to be a little more mirthical, maybe a little random just not too random.Maybe I should have asked you to think more along the lines of MTV movie awards.This was not supposed to turn into a poll to vote on.If I would have wanted that I would have put it in the movies as a poll.I meant for you to make up silly awards and give them to characters.
On a lighter note here's some examples.Forgive me if they're not too mirthical, I seem to lack in that category. Best Scream/Shriek Award -Nazgul Best or worst maybe spazing fit award- Frodo(nobody can do it like Frodo can.) Captain Obvious Award- Legolas(for the "a divirsion" bit and something else I just can't think of it at the moment.) Peace and sorry for the misunderstanding, Vuelve

Well, for a few random things:
Worst singer: Tom Bombadil - that "hey dol derry dol" gets annoying. Best singer: Movie Pippin. I like all three of his songs. And here are my votes: ~Best Overall Character~ Sam - he's one of my favorite characters and of all my favorites he is best portrayed in the movies. ~Best Female Character~ Eowyn ~Best Male Character~ Sam ~Best Cameo Appearance~ Viggo's son ~Best Overall Villain~ The Witch King ~Best Monster/Creature Character~ The Watcher in the Water ~Best Comedic Character~ Pippin ~Best Character Monologue/Speech~ Aragorn - I love his Black Gate speech! ~Best Overall Death Scene~ Boromir ~Best Battle~ Pelennor Fields (not including the Siege part. Just the actual battle) ~Best Maia~ Gandalf ~Most Dramatic Moment~ Pippin's song ~Most Pitied Person/Creature~ Faramir when Denethor says all those things to him. ~Most missed character~ Glorfindel ~Best hairdo~ Galadriel ~Best supporting character~ Sam ~Worst Overall Character~ Arwen ~Worst Female Character~ Arwen ~Worst Male Character~ Elrond - he scares me, especially when he smiles *shudders* ~Worst Cameo Appearance~ PJ ~Worst Overall Villain~ Sauron's spotlight. I mean eye. ~Worst Monster/Creature Character~ Lemming Hyenas. Er, wargs. ~Worst Comedic Character~ Gimli - he has some of the worst lines. ~Worst Character Monologue/Speech~ Treebeard - he just drones on and on and on... ~Worst Overall Death Scene~ Denethor - I thought it was dumb. ~Worst Maia~ Sauron ~Worst Hairdo~ Aragorn ~Worst dramatic scene~ Frodo and Faramir... ~Least missed chacter~ Tom Bombadil ~Worst supporting character~ Grima |

OK, so this is "The Mirthies" and not a beef thread...sometimes I just have to spout. Thanks for your indulgence! Once I get the hang of it, perhaps I'll contribute! Signing off from Cerin Amroth, Cheers! Lyta

Wait, is that "Best Nose" or "Biggest Nose"? (Curses upon the head of whoever got rid of the evil smiley!!!) Either way my vote doesn't change, and I'm not poking fun at Faramir.
