Re: Can we stop with the Mary Sue sh*t now?

I agree so hard with this. Tauriel definitely has her flaws and I really don't think she has Mary-Sue qualities (well, any more than most elves. I'd argue that most elves are a bit Sueish).

I thought I'd dislike her, but the trailers started winning me over and so did the movies. The first few scenes between Tauriel and Kili almost managed to sell me on Tauriel/Kili, which I really hadn't expected (the later scenes with them ended up ruining the ship again, but yeah...) And I definitely dislike the love-triangle stuff. I definitely see Tauriel and Legolas more as step-siblings.
That doesn't stop me from appreciating Tauriel as a character, though.

To be honest, I will be mad if her presence (or anything else) changes who survives the third movie and who doesn't. I want to go out of that movie crying, dammit! XD
