Basically you find pictures which eerily resemble LotR characters! I'll start:
This is Slartibartfast, Saruman's evil (or good) twin!

Oh, come ON! Surely someone has seen something! The captain of one of the football teams looks a LOT like Billy Boyd.

My dads friend looks like this picture that I have of Orlando Bloom. For further Orlando lookalikes, look here:

Me and my sister thought that the co-host of the first American Idol, Brian Dunkleman, looked an awful lot like Elijah Wood, but I think we were the only ones.

I also know another person who looks very like Elijah Wood, another of my Dads friends. Perhaps they should all get together and do a remake of the movie? smilies/biggrin.gif

I think Viggo Mortenson looks like Kirk Douglas in real life. Time for a remake of Spartacus? smilies/tongue.gif

A buddy of mine is seriously identical to Elijah Wood...funny how he just doesn't seem as attractive though...oh well.

Vardadurwen, your not interested in martial arts at all are you? because if you are, you just described someone I know. smilies/biggrin.gif

It's probably just my over exagerrating mind playing trickses on my but I seem to be seeing a LOT of Elijah Wood look-a-likes! Tons! No Orlando Bloom look-a-likes though ... **sighs**

My chemistry teacher looks like a cross b/w Gandalf the Grey and Saruman. And my old pastor looks like Gollum, and that's about it I think. Well my uncle does look somewhat like Eomer I guess. But much darker and shorter hair. ANyways...

My science teacher has pointy ears, and looks like a chubby )to put it nicly) Elrond.

*shivers* The body doubles link was CREEPY... Well, I dunno if this counts, but abut eveyone I know, including my own father, says I look exactly like Liv Tyler. And someone once asked me if I was in Harriet the Spy. (as Harriet) Strange... smilies/biggrin.gif

My friend thinks our Spanish/Journalism teacher looks like an older version of Elijah. I don't think so, as his hair style and cut is different, but it must be the blue eyes. smilies/rolleyes.gif

I know this classmate who looks almost identical to Miranda Otto as Eowyn. She has long, wavy blond hair and even her face shape resembles Miranda's! She is very lucky.

Holy crap(pardon my language)! I never knew that Elijah and Orlando looked so much alike!
They gave me the creeps!**shivers very coldly** smilies/eek.gif

This guy I know said that my best friend looks like Arwen (or should I say, Liv Tyler). Personally I think my best friend could pass for an elf if she were taller.

One of my bets friends is a hobbit. reaally, a true, live hobbit athough not for long if I dont get my book back) smilies/biggrin.gif but she wont admitt it. she hates LOTR, which I think is a real pity.

Every time I see Orlando Bloom (not as Legolas) he reminds me of my first husband. It's quite bizarre for me.

Go Liv lookalikes! Yay! smilies/tongue.gif I wish I was an elf.. I suppose looking like Liv (Arwen should I say) will have to do though.

The guy who plays John (or is it Jack?) Hannah in the new Terminator movie looks an awful lot like Dominic Monaghan. Isn't him, though, I checked. Did anyone notice this? The trailer for T3 was shown every time I went and saw TTT. Freaky!

LePetitChoux, is that the Slartbartifast of Hitchhiker fame? Not how I pictured him, I must say...

The catcher on Disney's The Rookie I thought looked ALOT like Sean Astin. I just can't seem to find a picture anywhere.

Oh, and my friend Emily at school recently got blue contacts that look so much like Elijah's eyes. {I envy her so much} smilies/wink.gif

Not how I pictured him either. I always saw just an old man, no special robes or anything.

i look exactly like eowyn/miranda otto, and strangely enough, i also look like eomer and theodred

the guy working at the local cinema is definitely gimli. the fellowship must have some time off in between questing

viggo looks like michael douglas, and i agree, kirk, although i would prefer michael smilies/biggrin.gif

arwen looks like catherine zeta jones

Meela

oh, and boromir looks like faramir smilies/biggrin.gif

actually, sean bean and david wenham have a serious physical resemblance

I don't think that's an accident; they ARE supposed to be brothers...

Meela
01-31-2003, 01:11 PM
sure, but for two entirely unrelated people, they managed to be pretty darn similar

Every time in the second Harry Potter movie (which made me decide I will probably NOT see the third...) and Malfoy's dad showed up, I would practically scream out, "Evil Legolas!!" or, better yet "Haldir!!"

And the guy who plays John Proctor in the Crucible looks like Aragorn in the LotR movie...

My bony little sister bears a remarkable resemblance to Gollum. Once she covered her hands in plastic wrap and hid under the table until dinner time so she could rub people's legs and beg for scraps from "master". It was really creepy.

Every time in the second Harry Potter movie Malfoy's dad showed up, I would practically scream out, "Evil Legolas!!" or, better yet "Haldir!!"

You too huh? I couldn't help but think what a pity it was that that remarkably elvish face ended up in Harry Potter instead of LotR.

No kidding. But my Legolas obsessed friend was ready to kill me the whole time...

hm...remarkable between Malfoy and Haldir
damnit! (pardon me) i was going to write something but i forgot..grr...
now i am quite angry...
aah! i wish i looked like a member of the fellowship or somebody in LotR

Brinniel
01-31-2003, 08:18 PM
I also was reminded of Haldir when I saw Malfoy in HP. I couldn't help saying to myself, "Haldir, you turned evil! What happened?"

Hirilaelin
01-31-2003, 08:25 PM
Yea, Malfoy's dad did look like an evil elf. Very suspicious.. A Haldir cameo???!!! smilies/eek.gif Hmmm... smilies/biggrin.gif

Oh, has anyone seen those Skittles commercials? I'm talking about the one I guess is supposed to be in Scotland and the guy on the horse comes up. If you ask me, he bears a striking resemblance to Viggo Mortenson. They could have used Viggo for that commercial and I think it would have looked better, actually.

I was watching some thing on tv the other day and they had thise guy talking about some movie. I forgot what I was watching. But his voice sounded almost exactly like Dom's when he is immitaing John Rhys-Davies on the Extended Version DVD. Does voice sound-alikes count in this thread?

Meela
02-01-2003, 03:56 PM
if u ever see Dragonheart 2: a new beginning, theres a guy in that that is the spitting image of Viggo. if i didnt know he wasnt him, id be prepared to swear on the precious that it was

Not to be offending anyone on this thread,but how does Tom felton as Draco Malfoy look like an elf?I mean he's fifteen and he's as short as a 10 or 11 year old? That's kinda creepy if you ask me.He doesn't even have an elvish face!U-G-L-Y!You ain't got no alibi!

Meela
02-01-2003, 04:19 PM
tom felton????

i agree that lucius looks like haldir, but tom???? pfft...

Galadrie1
02-01-2003, 08:49 PM
My friend and I were convinced that Malfoy's dad and Haldir were played by the same actor, until I looked it up on the Internet.

Oh, does anyone know the Corn Pops commercial where the guy jumps on the rail in a skating park but he doesn't have a skateboard? Then it says "A day without a board... is like a day without Corn Pops." Anyway, there's one guy who it shows for a couple of seconds and he shakes his head or something, and it looks exactly like Elijah Wood! I'd claim it was him, but I don't think he'd do such a small part in a commercial like that.

Are you talking about something I said? smilies/confused.gif
When I said Malfoy looked like Haldir, I meant Mr. Malfoy. Sorry if I confused anyone.

Wow!! Meela and Hirilaelin- you guys actually look like Liv Tyler and Miranda Otto??!! That is sooo cool!
