Yes,you're right but if there are "champions of the funny things",no doubt M and P are "the champions"

i wouldn't call merry or pippin stupid, stupid is such a strong word. i would make them out to be more mischievous

i voted pippin. you can just tell!!! and he also makes a lot of mistakes like in Moria.

 

[Finduilas]

Yes,stupid is really too strong,maybe childish(actually they were still children)

 

[Turin]

Pippin is much stupider but he is my favorite character

 

[Anira the Elf]

Pippin.

everyone keeps saying the films made them look stupid, but i think only for Pippin they did that - if you pay attention youll notice all the 'gags' are made for Pip. Merry is not shown to be stupid at all.

In return of the king Pip is not Stupid he seems to get more serious as time goes on.

so what if they seemed a bit stupid!
Merry and Pippin where the humour relief in the books and in the movies! face it it wouldn't be the same without them! and has for wich is stupider!? i'd say neither they r stupid together
you would not find one neon pink sock with stripes without the other!

While in the movie Merry and Pippin often LOOK stupid they really aren't!

I mean...the movie makes even Gimli look stupid. But the point is that the two hobbits are NOT stupid!!

I mean...look what they did for Middle Earth! They became warriors...

It's just that they were young and careless at times.

 

[Aulë]

Arrg!
I'm not silly!
It's Merry's fault!

 

[Wonko The Sane]

I believe Merry would say the same about you.


And anyway you grew up a lot after all that business with Gondor.
