J.R.R. Tolkien: June 2006 Archives
Time to close the LOTR poll. The results were, for the most part, what I expected. There were only two that I did not expect, namely, the number of votes that Legolas and Gollum received respectively. Take a look:
#1 - Aragorn: 80 votes
#2 - Gandalf - 49 votes
#3 - Frodo & Sam - 39 votes each
#4 - Gollum - 37 votes
#5 - Legolas - 28 votes
What do you think accounts for Gollum receiving more votes than Legolas? (Obviously, not many teenage women read this blog...) How is it that Gollum was only 2 votes outside of 3rd place. Why do you think a number of people considered Gollum to be one of their favorite LOTR characters? It can't be due to his looks or personality. Thoughts?
All of the poll results are below:
