I posted earlier that Pernell Roberts could be Aragorn, but now I wonder what a western style version of LOTR would look like.
Aragron - Pernell Roberts (Adam Cartwright, Bonanza)
Legolas- Clint Eastwood
Theoden - James Arness (Matt Dillon, Gunsmoke)
Gandalf - John Wayne
Boromir - Dan Blocker (Hoss Cartwright, Bonanza)
Faramir - Chuck Norris (Walker Texas Ranger)
Gimli, TreeBeard, or Saruman- Victor French (appeared on various shows)
Frodo - David Canary (Candy, Bonanza)
Samwise - Ken Curtis (Festus, Gunsmoke)
Ringwraiths - Johnny Cash
Eomer - Michael Landon (Little Joe, Bonanza)
I'm clearly partial to Gunsmoke and Bonanza. I like both shows, but I'm really not into films of this genre.
For something humorous, how about a LOTR romantic comedy?
Bilbo Baggins is known throughout Middle Earth for being an excellent jeweler. Aragorn commissioned him to design a wedding ring for Arwen. Bilbo's kind of a fraud and only sells jewelry he won from the Ogres, so the only ring he has fit for a king is the one he took from Gollum. Hilarious hijinks ensue as Sauron wants back the master ring. Arwen and Aragorn finally see the ring in Rivendell and dislike it, so Frodo and Sam have to toss it into Mount Doom as punishment.
Aragorn - Freddy Prinze jr.
Arwen - Reese Witherspoon
Eowyn - Sarah Michelle Gellar
Legolas, Aragorn's best man - Owen Wilson
I'm not into these types of movies, so I don't have any more actors...
