Faramir is a man in a war, trying to decide what is best for his nation. When he thinks taking the ring to Gondor is the right thing, he moves to do that. When he realizes it's not, he stands up for what he believes.I don't see Faramir as a bastard at all.Theoden: I don't care about him, he merely existed to set the stage for the real heroes <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":-)" title="Smile    :-)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":-)" /> Anyone that would hire a man named Wormtongue as an advisor deserves what he gets!Gollum: Early on, I got the comparison between him and Jar Jar, which I've seen in many things. But, as he developed, he went out of that. In the end, where Gollum was concerned, I actually acheived suspension of disbelief enough to think that IS what an ancient cave dwelling insane hobbit would BE. Heck, he seems more real to me than Merry and Pippin <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
