As a complete guess...Andy Serkis (Gollum)?
Eärendil
12-24-2002, 04:15 AM
Nope, none of you are right. Keep on guessing... smilies/wink.gif
Samwise

Liv Tyler?
Eärendil
12-25-2002, 09:49 AM
I am sorry Samwise, Aengthrea already guessed that, and she was wrong.
Don´t give up! Keep on..
Samwise
12-25-2002, 06:11 PM
Whoop. It would help if I read previous posts, wouldn't it? Hm...
Cate Blanchett?
(just dosen't sound like the sort of thing a guy would say...) smilies/tongue.gif
*Merry Christmas, everyone!!!!*
Airerûthiel
12-26-2002, 05:01 AM
Orlando Bloom?
Eärendil
12-26-2002, 05:18 AM
No, you are both wrong.
Have I done it again? Posted a stupid quote that is just a little to hard....? *thinks*
vanwalossien
12-26-2002, 02:49 PM
You know, I think you might've Eãrendil. Liv Tyler said something like that about Gollum, but since it's not her... Er.. It doesn't sound like a guy really, but I can't think of more girls right now. Actually I can't think of anyone right now who could have said it. Billy? (wild guess)
Eärendil
12-26-2002, 03:26 PM
Nope, sorry.
Gorwingel
12-26-2002, 06:18 PM
Wild guess, Sean Astin!
Airerûthiel
12-27-2002, 03:40 AM
It doesn't sound like something a guy would say, but I don't think there are any more women in it...so I'll randomly take a last guess at Sir Ian McKellen and then give up!!
Eärendil
12-27-2002, 05:38 AM
Two wrong guesses, sorry...
What am I doing wrong? *Eärendil says and walks away muttering*
Gorwingel
12-27-2002, 08:02 PM
How about Elijah Wood
(Can't you tell I am just guessing, I want to get this right smilies/frown.gif )
Airerûthiel
12-28-2002, 09:43 AM
I never said I was a quitter, but I think we should just be told the answer and then start a new quote as this one is just too hard!! My brain is hurting because I have to think so much lol
hobbitlass
12-28-2002, 11:29 AM
Peter Jackson about Smeagol/Gollum.
Eärendil
12-28-2002, 01:10 PM
That was a very good guess Gorwingel, in fact, it´s right! smilies/smile.gif
Please proceed.
Samwise
12-28-2002, 01:48 PM
WHAT!?!?! How dare that dear little squirt say something like that and confuse the heck out of us..... smilies/wink.gif
Gorwingel
12-28-2002, 06:15 PM
I guess I did not know the rules, so I did not know I was to find a quote. But here is one my sister came up with
I'd be the first to jump off the wall or go into the woods. I like to do things as a group, but I think I'm more of a leader than a follower.
There it is smilies/smile.gif
Samwise
12-28-2002, 06:21 PM
Hm. Orlando?
Gorwingel
12-28-2002, 06:37 PM
Samwise, I know that was easy, you got it correct smilies/smile.gif.
Proceed on
The quote came out of the recent issue of YM, my sister is a huge OB fan.
Airerûthiel
12-29-2002, 03:55 AM
I was in Virgin Megastore one day and there were these Popstars dolls reduced to one pound. I thought, 'Oh no, that'll be me one day! They'll be throwing them at people as they leave the shop!'
Who said that?
vanwalossien
12-29-2002, 05:03 AM
That was from Empire! It was *hasn't got that issue here* um, Miranda? I think it was, but shouldn't Samwise post a quote? She got the last one right.
Samwise
12-30-2002, 12:52 AM
Hm. Okay. I've been dying to use this one, and it's pretty easy, although I fear I don't remember this word for word...
"He's bossy, he's a little bit pushy; he almost brought me to tears..."
said by who and about who? smilies/wink.gif
Airerûthiel
12-30-2002, 03:36 AM
Very good vanwalossien, my quote was correct.
PS Sorry for stealing your spot Samwise!
Samwise
12-30-2002, 03:41 AM
No problem. Anyone want to take a stab at mine?
Evisse the Blue
12-30-2002, 05:53 AM
I have no idea, but my guess would be: Brad Dourif about...Christopher Lee??
vanwalossien
12-30-2002, 09:29 AM
Airerûthiel: Yes, I know smilies/wink.gif I know my Empire off by heart, as the movie-mad lunatic I am.
Samwise: I've heard that one before, but I can't remember who said it... Er, um, erm, Billy about, er, someone?
Samwise
12-30-2002, 12:35 PM
Nope, and nope....
...and not to sound like a dummy, but what exactly is Empire? smilies/frown.gif

Samwise: Empire is the Bible of all film geeks, such as myself...in other words, a very good film-magazine.
Hmm, I've also heard it somewhere...Could it be Dom talking about...er, no idea. Probably not him anyway.

Oh, thank you, Nenya.
Nope, not Dom.... smilies/frown.gif
Eärendil
12-30-2002, 03:00 PM
Sir Ian McKellen?
Samwise
12-30-2002, 03:07 PM
No, not him......
Mm...The actor who said it had a rather small part. (probably too big of a giveaway, but oh, well.) As for the actor he was talking about, the two share the same profession. (also another big giveaway...)
Eärendil
12-30-2002, 04:07 PM
Um...Brad Dourif? *Sigh* I have no idea..
Nenya
12-30-2002, 04:08 PM

I know that one! It's Peter Jackson talking about Sean Astin after filming his "cameo" appearance in Sean's short film he made. They showed this clip on the WB's "Return to Middle Earth" program.
Samwise
12-30-2002, 07:13 PM
Ah, I knew it was too big of a clue. Of course you're right, Miss Eruwen--they're both directors. Post away.<a href=http://gurlpages.com/maria_sw09/Adoptables.html"><center>http://www.legolasgreenleaflove.com/files/sam.gif</a>
Eruwen
12-30-2002, 07:28 PM
Actually, Samwise, I hadn't even read your clues before I knew the answer. Of course I know the famous Sean Astin whenever I hear him or something by him. Am I right? Anyway, here's the next one. (Any actor could possibly say this one, but I am looking for that specific one. He he...)
The character is so much a part of me - it's difficult right now thinking about life outside Middle Earth.
Guessing might do a good deal of good on this one. Unless you know, that is.
Gorwingel

Is it Elijah Wood talking about playing Frodo?

Sean Astin about playing Sam?
vanwalossien
12-31-2002, 06:29 AM
I knew it! I had heard it before! It is on the special edition DVD, man I hate to forget things like that. I did know smilies/mad.gif
OK, I'm done complaining (for now). The new one; no idea, it could be just about anyone couldn't it? Viggo?
Eruwen
12-31-2002, 09:54 AM
Aw dangit, I thought it would be harder than that...since it is such a vague quote. But Eärendil gets it. Ah, yes, it was our friendly neighborhood gardner who said this. Your turn...
Eärendil
12-31-2002, 07:00 PM
Oh? Gee, a good guess I deem... smilies/wink.gif
He is a great guy to have by your side in that situation – he's such a wonderfully giving
actor.

Sir Ian McKellen about Christopher Lee? Or the other way around?
Eärendil
01-01-2003, 08:38 AM
Nope, try again.
Airerûthiel
01-01-2003, 10:19 AM
Elijah Wood talking about Sean Astin?
Eärendil
01-01-2003, 03:55 PM
'Fraid not.
Eruwen
01-02-2003, 03:28 PM
Hmmm...well I think it's narrowed down to where it is a guy we are talking about, but hmmm.....let me think. Is it Dom or Billy talking about Viggo?
vanwalossien
01-02-2003, 03:32 PM
Viggo about Sean B? I have to figure this one out, I just found a great quote smilies/frown.gif
Eruwen
01-02-2003, 05:50 PM
Sorry Van, but I just found it! I was watching my commentary and heard it!! It was Orlando saying it about Viggo! Really sorry about that though Van. I just got really excited and had to post it.
Eärendil
01-02-2003, 06:05 PM
I am sorry Eruwen, but that is not correct.
You and van are really close though.
vanwalossien
01-03-2003, 10:15 AM
Sean B about Viggo then?
Eärendil
01-03-2003, 10:57 AM
That´s it! Pray proceed. smilies/smile.gif
Eruwen
01-03-2003, 09:13 PM
What? It was Sean? Well then Orlando must have the same mind as him. Because in my commentary, he says the exact quote about Viggo. He says it sometime in the part at the Prancing Pony. Oh well, I'm ready for the next one then.
vanwalossien
01-04-2003, 05:51 AM

"F*** Empire! You had to give Best Debut to Mr. Cheekbones, didn't ya?!"

OMG. I can't believe I will have to choose between the other LOTR nominees for this award. I can't believe either of them would have said this about Orli. I thought they were all such good friends. But, I will have to say Dominic Monaghan. {You stupid fool!} No, I still like Dom. But he is who I am going with on this one.
Oh, and did you know that LOTR was nominated for 6 Empire awards and won 5 of them? That is so cool!

Viggo Mortensen?
vanwalossien
01-04-2003, 01:15 PM
Wow, a lot of replies at once! Billy it was, and Eruwen; why not call him Mr. Cheekbones? He's got nice cheekbones! smilies/tongue.gif
Eruwen
01-04-2003, 05:36 PM
I don't know. It just didn't seem like something Billy or Dom would have said. But now that I think about it, I guess Billy might have just joking around or something. It just schocked me for a sec there.
Too bad about the quote though. I guess I guessed wrong again. smilies/frown.gif Ugh. I'm not good at these things. Well, Nevvasaiel, your go. So have at it!
Nevvasaiel
01-04-2003, 08:16 PM
here goes......
When 'Lord Of The Rings' finally slipped from being No.1 in the world after about a month, it was kicked out marginally by a new movie called 'Black Hawk Down', and guess who was in it? Orlando Bloom!
One of the actors on O.B. (yet again...) smilies/biggrin.gif

No, and No.
Here's a very unhelpful hint:
You'd never guess it was ....
vanwalossien
01-05-2003, 10:43 AM
Sean Astin?
Airerûthiel
01-05-2003, 12:15 PM
Sir Ian McKellen or Viggo Mortensen?
Eruwen
01-05-2003, 09:40 PM
Christopher Lee. Lol. I am completely in the dark here. It's just a guess.
Nevvasaiel
01-06-2003, 06:10 AM
Yes, Aireruthiel (not the wrong spelling, i hope)
It was Ian Mckellen.
Your turn!
Eärendil

Airerûthiel?
vanwalossien
01-12-2003, 11:35 AM
Has it been a week? Yes, I think so. I'll just continue He's got more confidence and more comfort in his own skin than anyone I've ever met. Do what you will to try to knock the guy off centre, he's just not going to go Who said that, and who was he/she talking about?
Samwise
01-12-2003, 05:03 PM
Man that sounds farmiliar.....
PJ about Orlando Bloom?
vanwalossien
01-13-2003, 07:41 AM
Nope
Eruwen
01-13-2003, 02:30 PM
um...Orlando about Viggo? I'm just trying to go with the context of the quote seeing I have never heard it in my life.
Eärendil
01-14-2003, 11:44 AM
That would be Sean Astin about Elijah Wood, about not being worried whether Elijah can handle the pressure or not.
vanwalossien
01-15-2003, 07:51 AM
Absolutely correct Eärendil

Sir Ian Holm?
Airerûthiel
01-18-2003, 03:15 AM
First off, sorry for missing my go and messing things up! smilies/redface.gif
And as for my guess...I'm going to go for the old staple that I use in this thread and say Viggo Mortensen!
Gorothlammothiel
01-18-2003, 08:29 AM
As Airerûthiel has guessed Viggo Mortensen, and numerous others guessed Sean Astin etc I will say Sir Ian Mckellen or Sir Christopher Lee, (I can't decide between the two). That is of course if none of the others are already correct! smilies/smile.gif
Eärendil
01-20-2003, 10:32 AM
No, sorry, you are wrong, all of you.
Um...have I done it again? smilies/rolleyes.gif

01-20-2003, 02:42 PM
Eärendil I believe we are truly stuck on this one. Perhaps a clue is in order? Perhaps not, we could eventually list the entire cast smilies/wink.gif

Strong character, strong character, um....I'm not going with really muscular strong here, but Orlando Bloom? Elves were strong, weren't they? Maybe they were just quick...anyway, that's my guess.

Like any form of magic or war story, the books are incredibly dark. They're primal as well as fantastical, so I think it's important to have a director who has his feet planted in gore and fantasy.
Who is saying it, and what is he/she talking about?
Dark Shadow
01-30-2003, 01:26 PM
Well, they're talking about PJ, and I think it's.... umm, Christopher Lee? It sounds to me like something he'd say.
Eruwen
01-30-2003, 08:07 PM
I agree with Dark Shadow about the PJ thing, but I think it was Ian...{ahem} Sir Ian McKellen who said it.
Samwise
01-30-2003, 09:48 PM
Just to be different, I'll throw in John Rhys-Davies.
Eärendil

Nope, not Christopher Lee, Sir Ian McKellen or John Rhys-Davies. Though, the person is indeed talking about Peter Jackson.

He's twice my size! All he had to do was move an inch and we were lost.
Or maybe this one?
"How was the fish?" - "It was alright" - "You didn't like it?" - "It's not how I would have made it" - "How would you have made it?" - "I would have made fish curry" - "Well of course"
Just a couple of things that made me laugh.
NZ Ringbearer

Rochelle - the first is Orli about John in a boat, and the second is Viggo talking about him and...I can't remember his name! The scale double, right?
Rochelle
01-31-2003, 06:14 PM
*lol* RIght you are! I must be really into the characters when I crack up about all their stories. My favorite (and perhaps it may become my signature soon) is when John Ryhs-Davies is explaning his canoing experience:
"It grieves me to say this, but when an elf and a dwarf are in a boat, and the boat capsizes. Let us say that the blame was placed on the dwarf. But let us also say that the dwarf held grim satisfaction when the he heard of another incident involving a boat and the elf."
"Did he really say that was my fault? He is unbelievable man..."

Why did we move on in the first place? Eärendil will be back on Monday, and the thread has hardly gone stagnant. Wait for your turn folks smilies/wink.gif

Viggo Mortensen?

Sean Astin!!!!! Lol, I really don't know. I just felt like getting excited on that one.
Samwise
02-03-2003, 11:05 PM
John Rhys-Davies? Have I said that? I think I have.... smilies/tongue.gif
Eärendil
02-04-2003, 08:30 AM
No one is right yet....
Oh dear, have I really done it AGAIN?
Rochelle
02-04-2003, 08:53 AM
*lol* I know it says "actor's quotes" but could it be Cate Blanchett?
Eruwen
02-04-2003, 04:45 PM
FYI: "Actors" in this thread goes to both Actors and Actresses. It is meant in general.
Um...hm...it sounds like someone intellectual. I know, Dominic Monaghan!!!!!
Lol, no really, that's my guess. Oh, and hey Eärendil, I think those hard to guess quotes just come with you don't they?
Hirilaelin
02-04-2003, 05:19 PM
Billy Boyd? Liv Tyler? Wait... Andy Serkis? Who?! This is annoying...
Suilad,
~Eruanne
Samwise
02-04-2003, 08:17 PM
Oi! Yes, I belive you HAVE done it again! smilies/wink.gif
My guess of the day:
Brad Dourif???
Hirilaelin
02-05-2003, 01:29 PM
You've done it again, unless, by blind luck, one of us got it. Well, if we're all stumped, please tell us who said it! Please??
Suilad,
~Eruanne
Eärendil
02-06-2003, 05:06 AM
Phew, I was getting worried....
Rochelle got it! It was Cate Blanchett. Pray Proceed. smilies/smile.gif
Rochelle
02-06-2003, 08:16 AM
Yay!
Ok this one is a little long...does that make it easier or more difficult? hmmm...well here goes!
"The people who were teaching him said he was insanely talented. There's one scene at the end of the first film where a knife is thrown at Aragorn, who clocks it with his sword. One of the stunt guys who was meant to be his double said, 'I've been practicing that and I've never been able to hit the knife once, and Viggo hits it on the first take. I hate him."
Who said this (it's obviously about Viggo..)?
(and when you watch this scene it's amazing...the first try? I agree with the quoter...isanely talented)

That is correct!

02-06-2003, 11:39 AM
Wey.... smilies/smile.gif
An easy one now...
Strangely enough Stewart I didn't do any when I was at work for some reason it just sorta got forgotten about in that period in my life, eh, although I probably still thought about it but it was a kinda busy time and you know….
Samwise
02-06-2003, 04:49 PM
Mmm...Billy Boyd?
Eärendil
02-07-2003, 02:44 AM
Yup! I told you it was an easy one.... smilies/wink.gif Go ahead.
Hirilaelin
02-07-2003, 09:43 PM
That was EASY?! That looked hard... O.K., now I'm really scared...
Suilad,
~Eruanne
Samwise
02-07-2003, 09:58 PM
Oi...I didn't think that was so easy, either...as for my quote.... smilies/tongue.gif
"Elijah is playing Frodo as if he actually were a hobbit caught in these circumstances and dealing with them in the only way that he possibly can--as a hobbit. "
I have a weird feeling that will be easy for some of you, but... smilies/tongue.gif Obvious who it's about, who said it?

Rochelle
02-08-2003, 12:53 AM
I would have to say Ian McKellan.
Hirilaelin
02-08-2003, 12:58 AM
I think Rochelle got it.
Samwise
02-08-2003, 03:48 PM
Nope to the first and the second answers, I'm afraid.
Eruwen
02-08-2003, 04:02 PM
You know, that really does sound like Sean Astin. Actually, I thought I heard Sean say that one time. But I'm going to go with.....Peter Jackson?
Samwise
02-08-2003, 05:25 PM
Eruwen, methinks you are too good at this game. It was Mr. Jackson, who had a "bit" part as a Breelander. smilies/tongue.gif
Your go.
Eruwen
02-08-2003, 06:10 PM
Cool! I got one! Ok, here's the next quote. You may find this one somewhat easy if you know anything about the person.
"its not just my tongue thats bad. my spleen once stole 100 dollars from a 7/11"
It is someone speaking on himself/herself being bad. I thought it was funny.
Samwise
02-08-2003, 06:14 PM
Eh...? 'Fraid I don't know 'bout the person, so I'll say...uh...
Brad Dourif?
Eruwen
02-08-2003, 06:34 PM
Nope, sorry.
Rochelle
02-08-2003, 06:55 PM
Elijah Wood or Dominic Monaghan?
Eruwen
02-08-2003, 07:04 PM
After this reply the quote will be all too easy to guess. But I'll give it to the first person who posts the answer.
Rochelle, can you be a little more specific on which one you want to pick?
I hate giving away quotes like that so easily. If you all are somewhat smart, then you will see what my point of this reply is.
Samwise
02-08-2003, 07:06 PM
Dom?
Gorwingel
02-08-2003, 07:19 PM
I personally would have to say with those two choices it would have to be Elijah, because he is American, and I don't think there is any 7 eleven's in England (though I could be mistaken, I didn't see any when I was there though)
Eruwen
02-08-2003, 07:21 PM
Actually, Gorwingel, it was Dom. I guess there could be 7/11's in England. Or maybe he stole it while in the US. Anyway, Samwise, it's your go!
I hate giving away quotes like that. It's more fun to see people just keep guessing and guessing...well, you get the point.
Gorwingel
02-08-2003, 07:59 PM
Darn, I considered that Dom could have done that in the US, but I just though it would be most likely Elijah.
Samwise
02-08-2003, 08:29 PM
Wow yet again! smilies/eek.gif I didn't even think a bout the no 7-11s in England thing. smilies/confused.gif Anyway....
This was something I hadn't done for years and years and years!...If it had been any other film, I wouldn't have done it, but some opportunities you don't turn down!
Rochelle
02-08-2003, 08:36 PM
Aww...I don't get to post my quote? *sniffs* sad...
Frodo Baggins
02-08-2003, 09:49 PM
Actually Sam, Brad Dourif was a good guess, 'cause he's American too.
Ok Sam I'll bite, Christopher Lee/ He;s old enough to be 'years and years'.
Samwise
02-08-2003, 10:17 PM
Mr. Frodo! Hullo! smilies/biggrin.gif
And you would be right. Say on, sir.
Frodo Baggins
02-09-2003, 07:52 PM
I got it right? WOW! *does a little hobbit dance*
hmmm ok I can't find the quote I want to use but I'll TRY to quote ver batim.
"When I think about a ham sandwich, it's usually prety good."
For a hint, the actor/actress is talking about their acting.
Rochelle
02-09-2003, 08:15 PM
I am going to go with Sean Astin...
Frodo Baggins
02-09-2003, 09:00 PM

How about Sean Bean? *wild stab...*
Samwise
02-09-2003, 10:12 PM
Hm. I can't make heads of that sayin', nor tails neither. Um...was it Orlando Bloom, sir?
Frodo Baggins
02-10-2003, 07:10 AM
Not making sense hm? Well I do not know if this is help but the actor was talking about making their acting look good without going overboard and they said,
"If I think about a ham sandwich, its usually pretty good."
Its a funny quote made by someone with a good sense of humour, which is surprising when you consider who they play.....
ooooooo Hints all over the place!
And no, none of you are right....yet

02-10-2003, 03:12 PM
Viggo! Viggo Mortensen! Am I right? Cause, Aragorn is pretty humorless... Most of the time anyway.

02-10-2003, 07:15 PM
Frodo Baggins...maybe Karl Urban said it?
Frodo Baggins
02-10-2003, 08:42 PM
Eruwen got it, Brad Dourif said it. He really does have a nice sense of humour. But you don't think of Grima with a sense of humour.
Gorwingel
02-11-2003, 12:44 AM
Who's quote are we supposed to answer? I'm confused! smilies/rolleyes.gif
Though the answer to luin'loki's quote is Orlando Bloom from the Extended DVD.
Eärendil
02-11-2003, 06:12 AM
It´s Eruwen´s turn to post a quote.
[ February 11, 2003: Message edited by: Eärendil ]
Rochelle
02-11-2003, 08:54 AM
Real quick question...where on the extended DVD did Orlando Bloom say that? I swear I've watched it over and over (including that secret scene!) and don't remember it smilies/smile.gif Any help is great!
Eruwen
02-11-2003, 11:36 AM
Cool. Ok then, here's the next one...
"This can only help me; it can't hurt me, If it's successful, it can only open more doors to allow me to do what I want. I loved being part of `Lord of the Rings.' It's an important part of my life. It means so much more to me than books or films. It is life and friendship and passion and love for me."
It is quite easy. But you can start guessing now.

Would it be Elijah? I only say that because of the opening doors thing... smilies/wink.gif

Liv Tyler? Don't know why I said that...

02-12-2003, 09:23 AM
Real quick question.....where on the extended version did Orlando Bloom say that? I swear i've watched it over and over(even the secret scene!)and I don't remember it.
On lordoftherings.net featurettes,go to Orlando Bloom and soon you'll hear him say,"I'm trying to get my actions right.Just 'cause you guys don't even think about that stuff." then Bean says,"He's opposing" and Viggo says something that I didn't hear and then Orli says it.

an' no offense, Eärendil, but--a lot of your posts are near impossible t' figure out.

Eruwen
02-15-2003, 03:24 PM
Ok, it looks like Dark Shadow will not be responding as he/she-? was just on and did not even stop in the Quotable Quotes section. I think this is a hint...has it been long enough for someone else to go?
Samwise
02-15-2003, 05:56 PM
Hm. Well, it's been 4 days, by my reckoning.

02-17-2003, 06:45 PM

No, but I'll add to the quote. I think the addition makes it really easy (that's why I left it out in the first place) but I'll put it in anyway smilies/smile.gif
Eruwen
02-18-2003, 07:20 PM
Oh, yeah, was that Christopher Lee talking about Sir Ian McKellen? I would not have known that originally, but I watched all the appendices again today. That quote just springs to mind because I remember Christopher saying that.
Dark Shadow
02-19-2003, 04:11 AM
Correct. smilies/smile.gif
Eruwen
02-19-2003, 09:38 PM
Cool. But don't you hate giving it away like that? I hate doing that. Anyway, here is the next quote...probably quite easy because I don't have that much time to research on it.
I have seen him fall down 3 sets of staircases.
This person goes on to talk about the fall, but that is all I have from memory. Who said it, and who was it said about.
Yeah, very easy. This one will go by very fast.
Gorwingel
02-19-2003, 10:58 PM
I think that one is Elijah Wood, in the extended edition, and how he is such a professional actor.
Rochelle
02-20-2003, 03:54 PM
That's Dom talking about Elijah :-D
Eruwen
02-20-2003, 06:19 PM

Rochelle
02-20-2003, 06:39 PM

It´s Viggo Mortensen.
Eärendil
02-21-2003, 06:08 AM
I know I am right, (I always am smilies/wink.gif), so I´ll just post a new quote before I leave school for this week. I will not be able to say anything about your guesses before Monday, but I hope that´s ok with you.
It really became my home. It was amazing, like the most beautiful parts of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wale all put together on one tiny island; mountains, plains, rolling fields and **** -loads of sheep.
Rochelle
02-21-2003, 12:28 PM
Yes, it was Viggo speaking about the fellowship.
As for your quote..hmm...I'd have to say Orlando Bloom.
Samwise
02-21-2003, 09:40 PM

How about Orli?

02-25-2003, 04:44 PM
Well you would be correct! He was talking about the scene in Moria when Boromir almost falls into the abyss (because the stairs were no more)...and Legolas rushes up to save him, pulling him backwards. Orlando also quoted that Sean Bean gave no mercy in falling back onto him! *lol*
You're up!
Eressië Ailin

Yay for randomness!!! Ok, here's mine:
I know that I killed each stuntperson at least fifty times.
Eruwen
02-25-2003, 07:26 PM
Would that be John Rhys-Davies? Not too many quotes by him get on this topic, but I believe this one is. I do remember Dom talking about John taking out all the stunt guys when he hit them.
Rochelle
02-25-2003, 07:30 PM
It sounds like they're referring to the fact that PJ does so many takes...I'm going to go with Viggo since dear Eruwen has guess John Rhys-Davies smilies/biggrin.gif
Eruwen
02-25-2003, 07:53 PM
Right, you know, Rochelle, you make a very good point. I guess I didn't think of how the person said it. I'm going to stick with my answer though...just in case. {Though I have a feeling you're right.} smilies/tongue.gif
Eressië Ailin
02-25-2003, 10:25 PM
It's Viggo! Isn't he SOOOOO HOT?!?!
He said it in a making of Helm's Deep video. He said something like:
I was trying to figure out, sometime, about two thirds of the way through the whole shoot of The Lord of the Rings, how many times I had killed cartain stuntplayers.... And I know that I killed each stuntperson at least fifty times.
Your turn, Rochelle.

Alrighty here goes!
Usually at New Years, you think, well, what am I going to do this year. I've got so much on my plate and so many things can happen and the only thing that was in my head was, well, I'm doing The Lord Of The Rings, that's all year and that's amazing.

Hooray!! I'm right!!!
But that's been the big change in my life. I'm suddenly a bit famous. I just went out for lunch today and met a guy in his late twenties who'd seen the film 10 times.
