Is Figwit back?

[Elfhelm]

People are saying they can see him in the re-forging of Narsil scene in the trailer. PJ said he would bring Figwit back. But wasn't Figgy a wood elf? Narsil should be re-forged by Elrond's children.

that would be awesome.
im sure that only us devoted "purists" would realise that it's the same guy.. he's prolly just playing a different guy.

I think this (http://img-nex.theonering.net/movie/preview/images/rotk_trailer01) is the picture people are thinking is Figwit. I've also heard others say it's Arwen, but it doesn't look a bit like her.

EDIT: Darn, the link doesn't work!!!! Sorry. If you go to TOR.n and find the article with RotK trailer screencaps on it, the pic is the first one on p. 5 of screencaps. If that makes any sense.:rolleyes:

Yes, it makes sense -- I found it. :) And I don't think it looks a bit like Arwen.

Just to update this...

I believe that is Figwit when Arwen sees the future son vision and an elf says something like "milady, we mustn't tarry" or some other Elizabethan-SCA-renaissance-faire nonsense they have elves saying nowadays.

[Shadowfax]

Yeah, that's him Elfhelm! I noticed too! Nice they gave him some speaking lines in this film...;)

[Sminty_Smeagol]

heh, i have yet to even notice him in FOTR (still)... i had heard of figwit but upon my first viewing of rotk I didnt realize it was him... he is a bit of a cutey

[cee2lee2]

I don't seem able to find him in Fellowship either.

[Elfhelm]

Well, now that he's got a speaking part it should be easier to spot him in the Council of Elrond scene.

[azalea]

Yeah, I couldn't help but smirk and think of Entmoot when I saw him in his little speaking part.:) I thought it was funny that they bumped him up a notch, seemingly due to his "popularity.";)

:rolleyes:
He's in the cards? Wow. But the guy barely exists!
What's his name stand for again? Something like 'Frodo is Great, who is that?' or some similarly amusing line?
I can see it now . . .
PJ: "Well, they like this guy . . . . he's got a big following . . . ."
Somebody Else: "So, if you put him in the third movie, they'll all pay to come see that, too."
PJ: "Oh, right! Good idea!"

Although if they filmed them all at once that couldn't have happened. Oh well. :D

Funny how he is officially referred to as Figwit (you were right about the acronym), instead of Elf Extra #3. It's all a plot by Bret McKenzie to have fangirls write fanfics about him!
