With the added handicap of not being Gandalf. He’s also single-handedly killed a balrog He was the one who predicted that no mortal man would kill the Witch King. Rewind to one thousand years before the main story, and Glorfindel pretty much single-handedly defeated the Witch King and his armies in Angmar. In the books, Arwen doesn’t show up until way later, and Glorfindel and his beautiful, golden man-locks are what whisks Frodo to safety. Remember in the Fellowship of the Ring when Frodo got skewered by the Witch King and Arwen showed and saved him by taking him to Rivendell? What you were really seeing was a character named Glorfindel getting the veritable shaft. Characters like that are so badass, yet haven’t received the attention and notoriety they should, until now. With the popularity of The Lord of the Rings trilogy and now the The Hobbit trilogy it seems many fans of these movies are catching “Hobbit fever.” And while the movies are filled to the brim with action, heroics, and bravery, there are quite a few characters from the books that have yet to make it to the big screen.
