Actor's Quotes

[vanwalossien]

OK, here's some quotes from the actors of the movie, can anyone guess who said:

"These things are like boats with toes on them!" (on the fake hobbit feet used in LOTR)

" - doesn't speak a lot - - prefers to let his actions speak for -. -'s moves are smooth and elegant, like a cat. You know how cats can jump and land steadily on their paws? That's what I'm trying to do. There's a strength in that, but it's very balletic. It's also bloody hard to do without falling over!" (on his/her charcter's movements)

" To play one of the main characters in it, it's not the kind of thing you don't do. Oh, I'd rather not play - in Lord of the Rings..., In fact, what else would you rather do, you know? I can't actually think of another job that I'd rather do."

[merlilot]

1. I have no idea. Ian Holm, aka Bilbo. He didn't particularly care for the feet.

2. This is Orlando. And I know it is Orlando because he said this or something very similar in the Official Movie Guide. (Umm. Yeah, I have it memorized, almost...)

3. No clue. But I am guessing it was one of the guys who played hobbits: Elijah, Dominic, Billy or Sean.

I have some, but I will wait for these to be cleared up before I post.

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Oh oh! I remember seeing or hearing that somewhere. Forget who said it though...um...I think it was Ian Holm.

[vanwalossien]

Merlilot's right. 1=Ian 2=Orli 3=Billy

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

There were 2 more quotes?! smilies/eek.gif Man, I must be stupid!! I thought they were your signature! And I knew them both too! Oh well, Merlilot got them first anyway so it doesn't matter.

[vanwalossien]

Well, this isn't really a qoute, it's Peter Jackson's decription of one of the actors.. Who is PJ talking about?

"He's the only actor I've ever met who has had his tooth knocked out by a sword while shooting a scene, and afterwards ask us if we can put it back with superglue, so he can finish the scene!"

[Melephelwen]

Viggo Mortensen aka Aragorn smilies/wink.gif

"I was told I had to gain a lot of weight because Hobbits are very portly. Peter is forever suggesting I have more food. 'A little more shepherd's pie for Mr. X.' "
Sorry, I couldn't wait with this one smilies/biggrin.gif *in a very very sweet and innocent voice* you're not mad, are you??

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Was that said by Samwise's favorite little hobbit himself? (I'm talking about Samwise who made this topic smilies/wink.gif) But anyway, was that said by Sean A.?

[vanwalossien]

yes.. Sean Astin said that..

[Samwise]

Yeah, the poor guy! I always wondered why they didn't try to fatten Li'l Mr. Wood up! smilies/wink.gif

[mark12_30]

Judging from more recent pictures of 'Lil Mr. Wood, I think they did. His face was meatier as Frodo, even though he was basically slender. But he looks even thinner now. Bony-faced.

[Samwise]

Hm. Maybe a tad....
Anywho, I'm off topic, I apologize. Someone post a quote! smilies/smile.gif

[vanwalossien]

"I don't care much about the money at all. Frankly, if I get the chance to kiss someone in a movie, they wouldn't need to pay me at all."
On his salary in movies...

[Samwise]

Dominic Monohan (sp)? Or maybe Billy Boyd?
Or, when he was much younger, Sean Astin?
"Swans!" said Sam. "And mighty big ones, too! "

[Joy]

That last one was Orlando Bloom. I remember this from one of his fan pages.

Sorry, I don't have a quote though.

[Samwise]

Hi, Joy! Long time no talk! I don't know too many quotes, either, but here's one that I have:
"I don't know about you, but--if you can get a hold of some of these things--books, lima beans--whatever--I recommend 'em. "

[vanwalossien]

I have no idea, Billy?

[Samwise]

Nope. smilies/wink.gif

[Melephelwen]

I have no idea for the quote, Dominique Monaghan?
Anyway, I wanted to ask, Samwise, on the picture in your last post I can see parts of those bubbles, you use to tell speach in f.ex. cartoons. Where did you find the pic, and what are Frodo and Sam saying? Just curious... smilies/biggrin.gif

[daughterofgaladriel]

let's see....ok I know this is pathetically easy, but it's all I can think of right now: ...may it be a light to you when all other lights go out....

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Galadriel when she gave 'the Light of Earendil' to Frodo in Lothlorien.

Welcome to the Downs, by the way! smilies/wink.gif smilies/biggrin.gif

[Samwise]

Where did you find the pic, and what are Frodo and Sam saying? Just curious...
Oi...the link to that pic was originally posted by Raefindel in the Funny Pictures (http://forum.barrowdowns.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=17&t=000058) thread . I thought the joke was in kinda bad taste myself, but that the looks on "Sam and Frodo's" faces were priceless, not to mention unusual, so I copied the pic and doctored it a tad.
"They're Elves," said Sam. "Can't you hear their voices? "

[daughterofgaladriel]

I've already been to the Downs for I while, now here's another qoute: what have I got in my pocket?

[Samwise]

quote
---------------------------------------------
I don't know about you, but--if you can get a hold of some of these things--books, lima beans--whatever--I recommend 'em. "

Okay, here's a hint: The speaker of this quote has an exteeeemmmeeeeely cute adorable girl munchkin.

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Daughter of Galadriel, that'd be Bilbo, and Samwise, I know yours! It's Sean Astin of course!! Yeah he does have a cute little munchkin, doesn't he!

[Samwise]

LOL--I knew that'd be too big of a hint. smilies/biggrin.gif
"Yes, they are Elves," said Legolas, "and they say that you breathe so loudly that they could shoot you in the dark."
Sam hastily put his hand over his mouth.

[Samwise]

Hm. It's been over a week. I'd like to post another quote just to put this back up to the top.
"The 'Hollywood touch' would be quite wrong for this picture. Tolkien was writing about a different world, a different land, a primitive land and a primitive time in history. New Zealand--breathtakingly beautiful--is just perfect for that."

Who said it?

[vanwalossien]

Isn't that from the DVD? I think Elijah said it, but I'm not sure..

[Samwise]

(Wishing she had a DVD player) Nope, and nope. smilies/wink.gif

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Peter Jackson? Um...Viggo Mortensen?? Sorry, btw. I didn't realize that it was my turn!

[Samwise]

*That's okay, Lothriel. It's easy to get caught up in other stuff.

Nope, and nope...and I'll tell you right now, it's NOT Sean Astin! smilies/wink.gif

[Ringwraith Number Two]

Hmm...could it be Ian McKellen?

[Melephelwen]

Cate Blanchett??

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Sean Astin was going to be my next guess! smilies/wink.gif Ok, well I'll pick my favorite hobbit man then! smilies/biggrin.gif Was it Billy???

[Samwise]

Oh, dear....nope, nope, and nope. I guess, (given his character, maybe?) one might not expect a comment like that out of him? smilies/wink.gif

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Was it Christopher Lee? Sean Bean? Oh I know! That guy in the metal armor, oh Sauron! Yeah that's the guy. smilies/wink.gif smilies/tongue.gif

[Samwise]

Nope. You folks are running out of actors.

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

The guy who played Ugluk. Or that cute little ferret on some guys shoulder at Bree smilies/wink.gif Ok, last guess. Was it Dom Monaghan?

[Ringwraith Number Two]

Our favourite little Took, Billy Boyd?

[vanwalossien]

Well, Samwise, you're right, we're running out of actors.. I don't think anyone has suggested Orlando, so I do...

[Frodo Baggins]

I'll call it a shot in the dark Sam. Hugo Weaving??
I'm probably wrong.

[vanwalossien]

smilies/biggrin.gif Wow! This is the first (and only..) topic I've started, and now Frodo's reply ended up on the second page! I have two pages! Never thought anyone would care about this at all.. smilies/biggrin.gif

[Eärendil]

John Rhys-Davies?

[Samwise]

Yes, Eärendil! It was indeed the 6"+ dwarf! smilies/biggrin.gif

[Samwise]

Earendil?

[vanwalossien]

Eärendil? No quote? Well, here's one If you know you are going to fail, then fail gloriously!

[ September 08, 2002: Message edited by: vanwalossien ]

[Eärendil]

Sorry guys that I never posted a qoute, forgot to check this one.... smilies/rolleyes.gif
Oh well, I would probably not have been able to post anyway, as I still don´t really get it, what we are supposed to post, can anyone please explain? *feeling a bit stupid, but am fine otherwise* smilies/biggrin.gif

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Oh don't feel stupid Earendil, I do that all the time smilies/wink.gif Your just supposed to give a quote that one of the actor's from the movie said. Not what they said in the movie, but what they said in an interview or offscreen, or something. Hope that helps!

[Eärendil]

Yep, it does. Thanxie! smilies/biggrin.gif
Oh well, I don´t know any actor´s quotes, and hardly ever see any interviews (and then Swedish only), so I might just as well start searching for some..... smilies/smile.gif

[Samwise]

I have been able to find several actors' quotes on the internet.
As to the quote given above (shot in the dark time) Christopher Lee? smilies/rolleyes.gif smilies/confused.gif

[vanwalossien]

Nope..

[Eärendil]

A pure guess here: Sir Ian McKellen?

[vanwalossien]

No...

[merlilot]

The other Sir Ian?

I know Im not sposed to post another one yet, but whatever.
"...going to the gym to get in our (pause) hobbit physique (flexing his scrawny arms)"

All of which said in an adorable accent...and if I give any more hint you wont have to guess...

[Samwise]

Eh...."adorable accent"....Billy Boyd, merlilot?

As to the other....
"If you know you're going to fail, then fail gloriously!"
Er...Not Ian Holm, not Ian Mckellen, not Christopher Lee.... http://www.plauder-smilies.de/uhoh.gif

Uh.... smilies/frown.gif ....(ick) http://www.plauder-smilies.de/uhoh.gif Orlando Bloom?
Or Sean Bean?

[ September 10, 2002: Message edited by: Samwise ]

[vanwalossien]

It's neither of the sir Ians, and it's not Orli.. And not Sean. Tough one this?

[ September 11, 2002: Message edited by: vanwalossien ]

[Eärendil]

Another pure guess....Dominic?

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Is it Viggo Mortensen? Sorry if someone already said him.

[Samwise]

Tough one this?
I'll say. Haven't we run out of actors? smilies/frown.gif

[vanwalossien]

No, not yet... Do you want a hint?

[Eärendil]

Yes please...*blink blink* smilies/biggrin.gif

[vanwalossien]

Well, OK.. I'll just have to think one that doesn't make it too easy.. This Mr/Ms/Mrs X has just appeared in a film directed by Tom Tykwer.. Does anyone know..?

[Eärendil]

Er...didn´t help, but...I guess again...Sean Astin?

[vanwalossien]

OK then, the film is called "Heaven". Does anyone know now?

[ September 12, 2002: Message edited by: vanwalossien ]

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

No, but I don't think anyone said Liv Tyler, so I'm saying Liv Tyler.

[vanwalossien]

And I'm saying Liv Tyler is wrong.. smilies/tongue.gif OK then, I'll give you a really easy hint.. It's not Liv, it's "her" grandmother. If you don't know now I officially give up...

Oh, and Eärendil did you get the PM from me with my email in it?

[ September 13, 2002: Message edited by: vanwalossien ]

[Eärendil]

Ah! It´s Cate Blanchett! smilies/biggrin.gif

Yes, I did, vanwalossien. Will e-mail soon. smilies/smile.gif

[vanwalossien]

*clapping* Finally! smilies/biggrin.gif Post a new one Eärendil

[Eärendil]

smilies/biggrin.gif
"He's just got a spirit, you know? That's what I love about him...he's very alive and very lively." Easy one.

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Elijah Wood?

[Eärendil]

Yup. smilies/smile.gif Your turn.

[Eärendil]

Lothiriel?

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Ah, sorry!

Yeah, so um, yeah, that was the first sort of em professional- so things like that ya know things seem to happen by chance.. I think, if you let them

[elengil]

Orlando Bloom?

[merlilot]

Judging from the 'em' I have to say Billy. He says that alot.

And yes, Samwise, my obvious quote WAS Billy...I love his voice (and might get to go to Glasgow this summer!!!! Im so EXCITED!!!! Guess where I am going first...) Note who ended up in the sig with my boyfriend...

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Of course it was Billy! smilies/biggrin.gif He's my favorite smilies/wink.gif smilies/tongue.gif Your turn, Merlilot! (your SO lucky! Take me with you!!!)

[merlilot]

Wish I could...

It's funnier than a penguin playing a banjo.

I think this is like a saying of this person's...I have to confess that this was quoted by another person in the movie...Get both people correct and get extra points!

[Isilya]

Viggo?

[merlilot]

Nope. Hint: their characters are in the Fellowship.

[ September 23, 2002: Message edited by: merlilot ]

[Samwise]

http://www.plauder-smilies.de/uhoh.gif As usual, I haven't a clue. Sean A. and 'Lijah (just 'cause the two of them go together....)? http://www.plauder-smilies.de/uhoh.gif

[merlilot]

Nope, but that guess was WAY close

[Isilya]

Monsieur Boyd?

[vanwalossien]

Elijah and Orlando?

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Billy and Dom?

[merlilot]

Yes!!! Correct Lothiriel! It was Billy quoting Dom

Your turn...

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Thanks Merlilot, but since Isilya said Billy before I did, with or without the Dom (hehe, that sounds funny) I'll have to pass my turn to her. I can't find an actor's quote anyway. I keep quoting Billy, and I think people might catch on to that! Shhh. smilies/wink.gif smilies/tongue.gif

[merlilot]

Oops, I overlooked Isilya. My sincerest apologies. *bows in proper hobbit-fashion*

And I understand completely about the Billy quotes. Can't help but love him...the accent... And he's so funny, not to mention CUTE!!!

[Isilya]

Apologies are completely accepted, and I forgive you whole-heartedly. Now, seeing to the next quote:


I mean [counts off on fingers] Arwen was NOT part of the Fellowship, Arwen will NOT be a warrior princess..

[merlilot]

Wild guess: Liv Tyler??? smilies/biggrin.gif

[Isilya]

No, but wouldn't it have been great if she really hads said that?

[Samwise]

Uh...Elijah Wood?

[Evisse the Blue]

It woulda been cool if Peter Jackson had said it in the beginning - that is before making FOTR... smilies/tongue.gif

[Isilya]

Evisse, my dear, you are CORRECT!

[Isilya]

Hellooo....

[Isilya]

The next quote is open to the first person to post one!!

[merlilot]

"If I could be anyone in Middle-earth, I'd be a Hobbit."

[Eärendil]

Isn´t it one week´s wait before anyone else can post??

[Evisse the Blue]

Oops, guys, I'm really sorry, but, bless me, it didn't cross my mind I'd be right.LOL when I realized i was right.
Hmmm..
Well, as I didn't have time to prepare, here's a probably easy one:
I'm not a star. A star is a ball of gas.
merliot, I think yours is also PJ.

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Dom?

[merlilot]

The newest quote sonuds decidedly American, so I will guess Elijah or Sean Astin.

And no, mine wasn't PJ: it was Liv. Sorry about that...

[Samwise]

Hm. Given the "I don't like my fame" connotation...probably li'l Mr. Wood. smilies/wink.gif

[Evisse the Blue]

Yes, it was WunderKind Elijah Wood who said it.
merliot, I think it's you who guessed it first!

[merlilot]

*checks immense files of actor quotes for a new one*

Well, when you are done with your nails, we are being attacked!
Actually this was a 'we said...' thing, so there are actually several possible answers. In the context of this particular interview, there are two answers.

[vanwalossien]

Oh, that must've been Viggo and Sean B to Orlando..

[Evisse the Blue]

If not, Sean Astin or another hobbit to Elijah Wood, referring to the fact that he always chews on his nails...

[merlilot]

Does he really bite his nails? Wow, i have something in common with the famous Wunderkind. smilies/eek.gif How are his hands so bloody NICE then...

And yes, that was Viggo and Sean B to Orlando (and probaly the rest of the Elves, but especially Mr. Bloom). I love that. The whole quote is really funny.

[vanwalossien]

OK, I think I'm running out of quotes soon.. If any LOTR cast ever read this: Say something funny! Now that's archery! Someone about Orlando's skills with the bow and arrow.. But who?

[merlilot]

Hard one: was it an actor?...can you norrow it down please?

[Elenna]

I think it was Orlando.

[Catherine]

Viggo?

[vanwalossien]

Yes, Orli it was... He's right, he is good at archery.

[vanwalossien]

Got a new one Elenna?

[vanwalossien]

OK then, I've got a new one..
"Strangely enough, the first time I tried to read the book I was on holiday in Florida. I dropped it in the pool my first day there. If that's not a X thing to do, I don't know what is." Easy one this. smilies/smile.gif

[Samwise]

Hm. Don't know why, but that reminds me of Billy Boyd, but the accent's not right...(X=Pippin....) smilies/confused.gif

[vanwalossien]

You're right Samwise.

[Samwise]

Oh, my...okay, then....
"The book draws on strands from European and world mythologies...That's why people reading the book--or, now, seeing the films--find and affinity with The Lord of The Rings."

[vanwalossien]

I have no idea! Viggo? Christopher? It seems a bit like a Christopher Lee thing to say..

[Samwise]

Nope, not Christopher Lee.

[Eärendil]

Sir Ian McKellen?

[vanwalossien]

Viggo then? Sean B?

[Samwise]

Nope, nope, nope. smilies/frown.gif

[vanwalossien]

Could it be Pete then? He is an actor, he appears for like two seconds in Bree...

[Reyna Evergreen]

Peter Jackson or Dominic Mohagauny (sry..his name doesn't enter my vocabulary..)..it's just something they would say.

[Samwise]

No...we'll run out of actors sooner or later...

[Eärendil]

Cate Blanchett?

[Samwise]

Nope. http://www.plauder-smilies.de/sad/shakehead.gif

[Eärendil]

Elijah Wood?
Can you give us a hint, like say if we are close or not....? smilies/wink.gif

[Samwise]

Hum....this actor's character was at the Council of Elrond.

[Beren87]

John Rhys-Davies? or perhaps Hugo Weaving. I assume Elrond was at the council of Elrond.

[ October 22, 2002: Message edited by: Beren87 ]

[Samwise]

And you would have assumed correctly, Beren87. It was indeed Hugo Weaving. (Guess they couldn't have called it the Council of Elrond without Elrond, could they?)

[Beren87]

AHH, glory me! I got it right!

Anyway, hmmm, ah yes i've got one.

(on the challenges of working in hobbit feet) "These things are like boats with toes."

[Eärendil]

The same actor again...Elijah Wood?

[vanwalossien]

That one is Ian Holm. It was the first quote I posted on this thread. Not only are we running out of actors, but quotes too appearently. Try this one: Basically, I can say that I came to acting because of the women

[Eärendil]

Orlando Bloom? (Yes yes, I admit, I don´t have clue, just guessing... smilies/wink.gif)

[vanwalossien]

Very good guess! Entirely correct as a matter of fact!

[Eärendil]

Whoa...*blushes* Right, a new one...:
I'm a very lucky person. Lord of the Rings is already in the history of the cinema.

[Samwise]

*Has no idea*....Li'l Mr. Wood? http://www.plauder-smilies.de/confused2.gif

[vanwalossien]

In case I should ever get another one right, does anyone know where I can get some quotes? All the magazines I read are Norwegian.. And I've used all the good ones from imdb...

[Samwise]

Hm. What about an LOTR Movie Guide?

[Eärendil]

Sorry Samwise, it's not Mr. Wood.

[Samwise]

Mmmm....Orlando, then?

[hobbitlass]

Sir Ian Mckellen

[Eärendil]

You got it right this time Samwise. It was indeed Orlando. Proceed. smilies/smile.gif

[Samwise]

*always shocked when she gets one right*
Okay, this one should be fairly easy.

"I've been written about in the tabloids, my mother and father have been written about in the tabloids and I was born in the tabloids"

[hobbitlass]

Sounds like Sean Astin.

[Samwise]

You would, of course, be right. Quote on, hobbitlass.

[hobbitlass]

Quoting on......
We're part of something scarily large

[Eärendil]

Um...Elijah Wood?

[hobbitlass]

Yes, yes, yes, I thought I had you all stumped. Go ahead. smilies/smile.gif

[Eärendil]

Wouw...didn't expect that... smilies/biggrin.gif

The film has a lot of heart, and where we wanted to start off was
with the characters.

[Samwise]

Peter Jackson?

[Eärendil]

Nope.

[Samwise]

Um.....Sir Ian?

[vanwalossien]

Which sir Ian? Could it be sir Ian McKellen?

[Eärendil]

Nope, sorry. None of the Sir Ian's.

[vanwalossien]

Viggo?

[Eärendil]

Not Viggo either.
Tough one this?

[Samwise]

I should say so. Dominic?

[Eärendil]

Not Dominic either.

[vanwalossien]

Billy? This is turning into another "If you're going to fail..." How many guesses did you need to get that one right?

[vanwalossien]

I just counted them, you needed 8 guesses, not counting the correct one.

[Eärendil]

We are getting closer to that ammount...
Nope, sorry, it's not Billy.

[Samwise]

Goodness sake....uh....Elijah Wood or Sean Astin? Sean Bean? (I think that makes 8). I haven't the faintest.

[vanwalossien]

Liv Tyler? Can't be, it doesn't sound at all like her...

[Eärendil]

No, it's not Liv Tyler.
Samwise, can you please choose one of your actors? I mean, come on, three guesses at once.... smilies/wink.gif

[ November 02, 2002: Message edited by: Eärendil ]

[Samwise]

Sorry, was just trying to make 8 .
Sean Bean?

[Eärendil]

You got it! Quote away.

[Samwise]

Thank you. Okay...
"At the center of the story, there's this little hobbit and this other little hobbit. They stand together against all odds, destroy the oppostion and save Middle Earth. Although they are only little people who would never normally be given such a responsibility, they accomplish this amazing feat, which is a reminder, perhaps, that any of us can do anything if we only put our mind to it. "

[Eärendil]

Sean Astin?

[Samwise]

LOL--don't know me or anything, do you, Eärendil? Heh, that's exactly why I
didn't pick a quote from the guy who played my favorite Hobbit! smilies/biggrin.gif
Ahem--sorry, not Mr. Astin.

[vanwalossien]

Your nick says it all Samwise, but that did sound like Sean A. But it could also be Elijah, couldn't it?

[Eärendil]

Well, it DID sound like Sean Astin...
And I believe you are correct vanwa, I even found the interview on the net.... smilies/wink.gif

[Samwise]

Yes, vanwalossien, it was li'l Mr. Wood.

[vanwalossien]

Ok, I'm running out of quotes here.. Oh, I've got one: It's a fun activity! Can't say what he/she was talking about, it'll probably be too easy if I tell.. But is has nothing to do with lotr..

[Eärendil]

Gee...I have no idea...Orlando Bloom?

[vanwalossien]

No. I know it's hard when you have no idea what he's talking about (yes, it's 'he'). But I can say that he was cleaning up after a dog...

[mark12_30]

Geh. That makes it Wood, on the Osbournes... Yuck! No I didnt see it, yes I read about it, and I don't WANT to see it.

[vanwalossien]

Of course it was Elijah. You post one.

[mark12_30]

Actually, I'll be gone all week, so you go ahead and post one.

[vanwalossien]

I'm so running out of quotes.. Anyone got a good one?

[Eärendil]

I can go... smilies/smile.gif

I had never done anything with blue screen before or prosthetics or anything like that.

[Samwise]

Mmm...Elijah again?

[Evisse the Blue]

Sean Astin? Ian Holm? Ian Mc Kellen?
C'mon, give me the 'chair', I just stumbled upon a greatquote.

[Eärendil]

Samwise and Evisse - Nope, you are both wrong (Evisee-you didn´t get it even with THREE guesses... smilies/wink.gif smilies/tongue.gif). And no, I won´t give you the "chair", I posted first, and I am not THAT nice to give anyone else the turn. smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/wink.gif

[Samwise]

....Dominic? smilies/rolleyes.gif

[Evisse the Blue]

Aw, man! Yer being wicked! smilies/evil.gif
And I'm so ignorant! Can I do another one? Liv Tyler?

[Eärendil]

You are both wrong again, sorry... smilies/wink.gif

[Samwise]

John Rhys-Davies? smilies/rolleyes.gif smilies/frown.gif

[Frodo Baggins]

I'll bite..

Sir Ian Holm?

Sry just sounds like something he'd say.

[vanwalossien]

Evisse has already tried Ian Holm... Er.. Not another Orli is it?

[Eärendil]

Nope, you are all wrong. Tough one again? smilies/wink.gif
(This is fun...)

[Samwise]

Oi......Cate Blanchett?

[Evisse the Blue]

Yes, oh, stupid me <loud forehead slap> of course it's Cate Blanchett, talking about her prosthetic ears! oh, well, better luck next time...
Earendil, you're having way too much fun! smilies/tongue.gif smilies/biggrin.gif

[Eärendil]

[Eärendil]

Christopher Lee?

[Samwise]

Yep.

[Eärendil]

Whoa....okay, I admit, it was a bit more than just a guess... smilies/wink.gif
Okay, here we go:

:EDIT: - I will probably not be able to come online again before Monday, so you might have to wait for me to tell you if you´re right or wrong... Or if you´re quite sure you´re right then you may go, and I´ll tell as fast as I can if you were right or not. Hm..I hope at least someone understood what I was trying to say... smilies/biggrin.gif

Ookay...Could it be Ian McKellen? ::crosses her fingers hopefully::

[busybee]

Umm.....how about....Christopher Lee?
Just sounds like something he'd say

[busybee]

Actually how about Viggo Mortenson?

busybee takes it! Well done. Please proceed. smilies/smile.gif

[Evisse the Blue]

Loo! Busybeeeee! Where are you flying about? Come and post a quote here. I'm all a tingle. smilies/wink.gif

[Eärendil]

We have to wait today and tomorrow, and then it is a week since I confirmed. If busybee haven´t posted in that time, then anyone may go.

[Eärendil]

Okay then, I´ll go on posting a new quote:

Eh.. but so I knew these casting directors, John eh, John Hubbard as I say, so when I went down he was talking about 'you know, it's amazing that they're making Lord of the Rings' and I thought yeah it's totally

(This one is easy)

[Samwise]

Why do they always say it's easy when I have little or no clue?

Billy Boyd?

[Evisse the Blue]

If not - Dom?
* have no clue, but can't help meself *

[Eärendil]

No clue Samwise? You liar.... smilies/wink.gif
Yep, of course it´s Billy! smilies/biggrin.gif Please proceed.

[Samwise]

smilies/eek.gif ?!?!?!? smilies/eek.gif
Sheesh...okay, I thought "maybe" but wow....
Okay:
"Everything here is more magnificent. The landscape is farmiliar in the sense its been formed by rain--just as Tolkien's Oxfordshire was--but the vegetation is unusual and the mountains seem so much sharper. " (this actor's response to arriving in New Zealand)

[Eruwen]

That sounds like it would be either Christopher Lee or I think somewhat Sean Bean. But I'm not too sure. I don't remember hearing that one.

I think I'll go with Christopher Lee.

[ December 04, 2002: Message edited by: Eruwen ]

[Samwise]

Nope.

[vanwalossien]

One of the sir Ians?

[Evisse the Blue]

It has to be an Englishman, so: Sean Bean.

[ December 05, 2002: Message edited by: Evisse the Blue ]

[Finiel]

um... Viggo Mortensen?

[vanwalossien]

We still have some englishmen left; how about Orli?
Welcome to the Downs Finiel!

[Samwise]

Which Sir Ian, Van?
Welcome, Miss Finiel! ('re is it Mr?) smilies/biggrin.gif

[Finiel]

Sir Ian McKellen?

thanks vanwalossien and you got the it right sam.

[Samwise]

That's the "Sir Ian," Finiel! Please go on.
smilies/wink.gif

[Eärendil]

Finiel?

[Finiel]

Oh! I'm sorry. I didn't know the rules.
Stupid me. smilies/eek.gif

This probably has nothing to do w/ what you guys are talking about but I was reading a magazine article about one of the cast..
"he was like, Dude, you have to be Frodo!"
It's kinda obvious who I'm talking about! smilies/wink.gif

[Corky]

Sorry for interrupting you guys but I couldn't help my self!! smilies/biggrin.gif

[vanwalossien]

Could that be Ian McKellen, Finiel? (Chris being Christopher Lee)

[Eärendil]

Finiel - Sir Ian McKellen perhaps?

[Finiel]

Yup, it was Sir Ian Mckellen. Vanwalossien got it first. (easy, wasn't it?) smilies/biggrin.gif

Your turn vanwalossien.

[vanwalossien]

Haha, beat you Eärendil..! smilies/biggrin.gif
One night Legolas, Aragorn and Gilmli had early calls for a dawn shoot of them running across the plain, so we all decided to camp out. We went fishing, built a fire pit, roasted some steaks and just had this lovely evening out under the stars. Producer Barrie Osborne sat around telling tales of The Cotton Club. I think for me, looking round that fireplace, that was the most cherished memory of the whole production. Phew, long one!

[vanwalossien]

Hey Eärendil, what does your new signature say? It looks a bit celtic, or something like that.

[Samwise]

Hum...
Sean Astin? No idea (and I mean it!) smilies/wink.gif

[Finiel]

I think its Sean Bean.

Yeah, I don't understand a word in Earendel's signature. smilies/biggrin.gif

[Eärendil]

Um...Elijah Wood? (I have no idea, and someone else said Mr. Astin already... smilies/wink.gif)

My signature? It´s in Old English. smilies/smile.gif

[vanwalossien]

Nope, you're all wrong... You might need some help on this one I fear. It did sound like fun didn't it? A night out camping with Legolas, Gimli and Aragorn! Just for a start; it's neither of them who said it.

[Eruwen]

Is it Dominic Monaghan? That sounds like his way of talking.

[vanwalossien]

Now that you mention it, it does sound like Dom's way of talking, but it's not him..

[Eruwen]

Ok then, my next guess would be Billy Boyd. I don't know, but listening to my behind the scenes stuff on my DVD so much, that just sounds like one of them two talking.

[Finiel]

Could it be Hugo Weaving?

[vanwalossien]

Nope, not Hugo, not Billy. Think TTT, not FOTR... smilies/wink.gif

[Eruwen]

Hmmm...could it be a girl? Maybe...Miranda Otto?

[Samwise]

Mm...Brad Dourif?

[vanwalossien]

Nope, but at least you seem to be getting closer.

[LePetitChoux]

Karl Urban, the one who plays Eomer?

[Eruwen]

getting closer in what way? could you give us a hint? I have run out of people.

YES!!!! I'm a Ghost Prince!!!!!!!!!!!

David Wenham aka Faramir?

LePetitChoux is right, Karl Urban it was. Don't any of you read Empire? smilies/rolleyes.gif smilies/wink.gif 33.5 hours left until TTT! smilies/biggrin.gif

[ December 16, 2002: Message edited by: vanwalossien ]

Ah dangit. Ya know I was thinking Eomer a while back, I just forgot what the guys name was. Anyway, good guess, LePetit

[vanwalossien]

LePetit? You there? It'll be a week tomorrow.

Okay...I´ll just continue with a new quote...: So I was thrilled in a geeky sort of way, you know. And it was just wonderful. I found him to be really sweet and lovely, both of them.

[Samwise]

Um....Miranda Otto?
(why do I always begin my sentences with "um"?)
