Actor's Quotes - Page 3 - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Eruwen · 07-12-2003, 01:03 PM

Nope, sorry, oh and another thing I forgot to mention. You don't have to say who it's talking about if you don't want to. I'll tell you that at the end, for it gives no hints towards the quote anyway. Just thought I'd share that.

Horse-Maiden of the Shire · 07-12-2003, 01:16 PM

Hmm...arr. Maybe Viggo?

Eruwen · 07-12-2003, 03:43 PM

Not him either. Lol. This is gonna take a while...I can already see it. Don't you just love when people find quotes like that? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

EDIT: Oh, and just so people don't have to keep switching from page to page to look at the quote, here is is again...

Quote:

He's a man that is very easy to respect.

Horse-Maiden of the Shire · 07-12-2003, 03:59 PM

No, I DON'T love it, Eruwen. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Hmm...

Is it maybe Bernard Hill?

Samwise · 07-12-2003, 04:05 PM

Sir Ian Mckellen? (he's been said, but someone spoke of him as who it's about, which Eruwen said dosen't matter...) [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Eruwen · 07-12-2003, 09:09 PM

No and no. Ooh, I am loving this. Sorry, but I love that for once I have found a quote like one Eärendil would always find. It's exciting from my point of view. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Samwise · 07-12-2003, 09:22 PM

Oi...Sean Astin?

Eruwen · 07-12-2003, 09:26 PM

No, and since many guesses have already been given with no luck...I shall give a few hints. Hmm...let's see what I can come up with.

1. The quote is done by a male. {Don't that help? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]}

2. The guy is talking about his own character in the movie.

3. This person is not often guessed, nor used in quotes, nor spoken of in this topic really. I just happened to come across an interview with him and decided he would be a good choice.

Ok, take those and keep on guessing everyone! I hope they help.

Samwise · 07-12-2003, 09:31 PM

Hugo Weaving? [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Eruwen · 07-12-2003, 09:39 PM

Nope, sorry, but you are getting the idea of what sort of person he is. As in...not one of the majorly guessed people.

Samwise · 07-12-2003, 09:43 PM

no clue no clue no clue....Ian Holm?

Gorwingel · 07-13-2003, 01:14 AM

Sean Bean?

If I got this correct (which I doubt I did), just go on without me. I am leaving tomorrow for Comic-Con in San Diego. I am going to be gone for 2 weeks, and I don't want this thread to go idle.

Eruwen · 07-13-2003, 02:21 PM

Sorry, no to both of you. Oh, c'mon, people, anyone who reads this can at least guess at it. That's what everyone here does anyway, so please guess. We need more people here!

Luthien_ Tinuviel · 07-13-2003, 05:32 PM

It's David Wenham! Yay! (Doing research actually pays off for once).

Eruwen · 07-14-2003, 08:12 AM

Yes, David Wenham, Luthien. Well, that lasted long enough. Your turn!

Luthien_ Tinuviel · 07-14-2003, 08:33 PM

Okay, this is a rather long quote, from a rather obscure interview. Good luck!

Quote:

You don't just work for Peter, you also work for Fran (Frances Walsh). Peter might have one idea and Fran might have another, and somewhere in the middle is what you need to do. I think Peter was happy with my first (shots), but I don't think Fran was, and Fran scared me more then Peter did.

Eruwen · 07-15-2003, 08:46 AM

Was it Dominic?

Luthien_ Tinuviel · 07-15-2003, 01:49 PM

Nope. Not Dominic.

Samwise · 07-15-2003, 03:32 PM

Um....'Lijah?

Finwe · 07-15-2003, 03:47 PM

Sean Astin?

Luthien_ Tinuviel · 07-15-2003, 04:13 PM

Nobody has it yet. why do people always guess the hobbit actors first? [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] I think it's the saying that the actor was scared of Fran that does it. Somehow it just seems like the hobbits are more vulnerable.

Samwise · 07-15-2003, 04:26 PM

Okay, then....Liv Tyler?

Luthien_ Tinuviel · 07-15-2003, 04:58 PM

Nooooo.... I can see what you mean, Eruwen. This is fun. I think I'll give you all a hint. The actor who said this is male, and his character is rather, um, odd.

Samwise · 07-15-2003, 05:05 PM

Brad Dourif?

Luthien_ Tinuviel · 07-15-2003, 05:15 PM

You got it, Samwise! Your turn! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Samwise · 07-15-2003, 05:21 PM

Whoa...okay...
(Goes to look for a quote....)

Samwise · 07-15-2003, 05:29 PM

Here we are:

Quote:

One thing that makes acting in films a worthy endeavor for me is how the movies take on a life of their own over time.

Eruwen · 07-15-2003, 06:08 PM

Ian McKellen? It sounds like him...kinda. Oh, did I spell his name wrong? It looks wrong to me, but I'm not sure and this is strange cause I have been spelling his name forever.

Samwise · 07-15-2003, 06:13 PM

Mmm...I don't think it's wrong, Eruwen. The spelling, anywhoo. That's not the person who said the quote, however.

Eruwen · 07-16-2003, 09:26 AM

Oh, Samwise, you almost got me...for a sec there. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Oh well, my next guess is Christopher Lee. I don't know, it just doesn't sound like a really young person, like the Hobbits, who would have said it.

Luthien_ Tinuviel · 07-16-2003, 04:22 PM

I'm going to have to agree with Eruwen and guess someone who is older. Ummm... Ian Holm?

Samwise · 07-16-2003, 05:42 PM

Well, no one has it, yet. The person who spoke this quote was saying this in a reference to a movie they had previously done.
I will not be on again until possibly late tomorrow, 'cause at my house we are SWAMPED with company, so keep guessing and I will be back on ASAP.

Luthien_ Tinuviel · 07-16-2003, 07:02 PM

Viggo Mortensen? (shot in the dark)

Eruwen · 07-16-2003, 07:54 PM

Um, Karl Urban? I'm just guessing here, really, I have no clue.

Tarien Ithil · 07-17-2003, 09:14 AM

Cate Blanchett?

*prays that it would be right*

Samwise · 07-17-2003, 05:45 PM

No, no one has it right yet...the actor might not be as old as you think he/she is.

Luthien_ Tinuviel · 07-17-2003, 06:41 PM

Okay, sort of young person. Miranda Otto?

Cinderella · 07-17-2003, 06:44 PM

I say Elijah Wood...

Samwise · 07-17-2003, 06:46 PM

Nope, and nope, but you're closer. The movie this person is talking about was out in 1985. I know that won't help some people, but...

Cinderella · 07-17-2003, 06:49 PM

oh oh!!! Sean Astin!!
