hey, speak for yourself! I loved Evangeline Tilly as Tauriel. she made a beautiful elf! yeah, she's not arwen but Tauriel is young, and a bit of a spitfire. I think Evangeline was actually capable of being as graceful as this pic shows, if they'd explored  into that avenue. If they had given her more downtime instead of having her fight so much, we might've gotton to see this side of her. I love the Tauriel character, but I do think Peter Jackson didn't go far enough with her.

Yeah I prefer Tauriel rather than Arwen. Tauriel seemed to be very much like an elf with "human-like" imperfections in personality and looks, which makes her more of an fascinating character. Arwen just seemed to be presented as a tad bit too unnecessarily perfect.

actually, I liked that Arwen was so good. Elves are by nature very good, sweet creatures, especially when they've spent so long in the Blessed Land as Arwen has, so Arwen is pure Elvish woman. So, I disagree strongly on Arwen being unnecessarily perfect. There's nothing wrong with Arwen.

Whereas Tauriel still has the fighter instinct that's been built up by years of living in dangerous Middle Earth, which is what happened to the Sindar Elves who didn't depart to the Blessed Realm and stayed,  their good, pure instincts are harder to see. I wouldn't say she has imperfections in personality, that's too strong a word. I would say she has different quirks. 

Anyway, Tauriel and Arwen are BOTH awesome in different ways. Neither are really better then the other in my opinion. Just different beautiful characters.

Yeah I like the fighter instinct more in Tauriel than the pure sweet nature in Arwen My personal preference.

Hey all respect to you for your opinion. They're both beautiful characters and they are equally awesome. Neither is better than the other really in my opinion.
