Actors' quotes
 

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."

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.

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

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

There were 2 more quotes?! [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] 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.

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!"

Viggo Mortensen aka Aragorn [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Sorry, I couldn't wait with this one [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] *in a very very sweet and innocent voice* you're not mad, are you??

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

yes.. Sean Astin said that..

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

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.

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

On his salary in movies...

Dominic Monohan (sp)? Or maybe Billy Boyd?
Or, when he was much younger, Sean Astin?

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

Sorry, I don't have a quote though.

Hi, Joy! Long time no talk! I don't know too many quotes, either, but here's one that I have:

I have no idea, Billy?

Nope. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

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... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

let's see....ok I know this is pathetically easy, but it's all I can think of right now:

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

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

Oi...the link to that pic was originally posted by Raefindel in the Funny Pictures 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.

I've already been to the Downs for I while, now here's another qoute:

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.

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!

LOL--I knew that'd be too big of a hint. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Hm. It's been over a week. I'd like to post another quote just to put this back up to the top.
Who said it?

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

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

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

*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! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Hmm...could it be Ian McKellen?

Cate Blanchett??

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

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

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

Nope. You folks are running out of actors.

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

Our favourite little Took, Billy Boyd?

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