frodo and sam...i just loved sam.
Aragorn and Legolas hands down!
Legolas is my favorite, but I also really like Glorfindal.
Samwise. I didn't really like him the first time I read it, but on re-reading I realized I had not appreciated his courage and loyalty.
When I first read the book back when I was 15 it was Legolas, I just loved Elves, when I saw the movie it was reinforced. Legolas is just one of the best characters I have ever known in a book.
Sam is first. But I also love Pippin, Aragorn, Faramir, and Haldir.And Bilbo in The Hobbit. :)

I agree with most all of these, but in no order.-note most of these are my favorite characters because of the movies!SAMWISE GAMGEE!
Aragorn
Faramir
Merry and Pippin
Legolas
Frodo
Gandalf
Legolas
Eowyn. I actually really like the majority of the characters from Rohan. Eowyn just stands above the rest.
Mine without a doubt would be Gollum/Smeagol. Very interesting creature, not quite good, but certainly not quite evil!
aragorn and legolas
Gandalf the Grey/White, of course!
I like Sam because he starts out as an almost comical bumpkin, but in the end he's the biggest hero of them all.
Can't find a specific one!I think frodo and Gandalf are the best...
I have to go with Sam. I love all the characters, but Sam stuck with Frodo right to the end. He faced Orcs,goblins,black riders, a giant spider, and possessed the ring without giving in to its power. He had many opportunities to flee, but he stayed true to his friend.I think Sam is the real hero of the story!

Taya,
I have to agree with you. It wasn't until my third reading of the trilogy that it occurred to me - Sam is the real hero. Frodo would never have succeeded without him.
Sam! He's the archetypical beta male who does all the hard stuff while the other guy gets the credit. But without Sam to keep Frodo going-- encouraging him, saving him, even carrying him, the One Ring would never have been destroyed. Sam is the real hero!Kathlena L. Contreras

Film Fave: Aragorn all the way! And Boromir, and Sam, and Frodo.Book Fave: Hard to tell, 'cause I'd already been gloriously infected by the movies. XD I will say, though, that I like the book Legolas even more than the film version. (Probably 'cause everyone kept teasing me about liking Aragorn best even though he doesn't have perfect Elven hair. XP)
Gollum although he is more in the other books in the series!
It has to be Sam. He is the most loyal character I've ever seen, read or heard. He is amazing!
Aragorn! I always say that he's so sassy (Someone who is full of themselves but in a good way. They're cheeky, lively, smart, saucy, slightly impudent, mouthy, cocky, energetic, loud and extremely talkative.)
It's always been Tom Bombadil.
Gandalf is such a strong character and has to be a favourite, but I have a soft spot for Aragorn, cos of the movie with Viggo Mortenson playing him so well...
Faramir, Eówyn and Éomer. Ohh and Pippin!
Aragoan,gandalf is wise character.
Book = SamMovie = (on sheer physicality) Aragorn [yummy - though I like his other movies where he smiles more often as he has a lovely smile, but with those chiseled looks smiling probably isn't why he gets hired...hopefully his talent gets him the jobs though!]
I am going to have to go with Bill the Ponny, Pippin, and Tom Bombadil.
Legolas is my favorite, but I also like Aragorn, Eowyn, and Arwen.
Well, my favorite character has always been Legolas, but it didn't start out as a crush. The first movie came out when I was only three years old, and when the third movie came out, I would always get excited during the part when he killed the oliphaunt. so when I was five, I always called Legolas the "awesome Elf-dude" because I didn't know his real name. Later when I was twelve, I found the lord of the rings trilogy in the school library and decided to check it out. I didn't know that Legolas was the awesome elf-dude from my childhood as I read the books, but Legolas became my favorite character pretty soon. He was always very calm, was a great friend to Gimli despite their races history, and was a great protector. After I read the books, I watched the movies again (because the last time I had watched the movies before I read the books was when I was seven, so I could barely remember a thing, except for the awesome elf-dude). so when I watched the movies again, I was surprised to find out that Legolas and my childhood hero was the same person. And then it turned into a crush when I was thirteen... ;)
Legolas, in the movies (cause he's so darn good-looking) and Pippin in the books.

Legolas is so cute and brave
Gandalf, Aragorn, and Frodo.
Legolas. Not only is he like the elf version of Robin Hood (my favorite literary character), but he also has "LEGO" in his name. 'nuff said.

MY favorite character would have to be Gandalf. I really like the compassion he shows towards others. Especially at Theodreds funeral where he tries to comfort his friend in a time of need. He is also very useful throughout the stories.
In this order: Pippin, Merry, Éowyn, Sam, Frodo. Got to love the hobbits. Éowyn is there only because she is badass.
I have no favorites! They're all awesome. But if I wanted to pick a character I wanted to see more of I would pick Frodo.
If we're talking in the films, I'd want to see more of Gimli or Gandalf.
