Here's a really really easy one if you just go by actors. Forgive me, I am young and didn't know this connection existed till last week.

McCully Culkin (sp?) to LOTR.

Oh, sorry...ok.

Jules et Jim: Oskar Werner -> Voyage of the Damned: Lee Grant -> Mulholland Dr: Naomi Watts -> Ned Kelly: Orlando Bloom -> LotR
(though Saucepan's version was shorter)

Hey, don't worry about it. I didn't specify that in the beginning, so how could you have known?

Brilliant, Saucepan Man.

Now we need a new movie...hmm...

How about Princess Bride?

And if anyone's curious, you can do one for Willow with Warwick Davis playing Flitwick in HP and then referring to my 'Anna and the King' one.

Actually, the original The King and I can be connected to LOTR via Julie Andrews, to Sound of Music, to the path that someone else figured out earlier.

And as to connections: cast and crew only.

If the connections are extremely easy I would suggest you supply them yourself as a fun example. Try suggesting movies that would prove a challenge to find a link.

Maybe we should limit the number of connections....after all, eventually I daresay everything could be connected to LOTR.

Cheers,

Princess Bride: Peter Cook -> Black Beauty: Sean Bean -> LotR

Are we going to limit the number of the connections? And what would be appropriate amount for that?

Quote:
The Sound of Music -> Christopher Plummer -> Hannover Street -> Harrison Ford -> Star Wars -> (George Lucas ->) Attack of the Clones -> Christopher Lee.
Another variation wiould be:

The Sound of Music -> Christopher Plummer -> The Man Who Would Be King-> Sean Connery-> Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade -> John Rhys-Davies-> LOTR

Can anybody connect Spider-Man to LOTR???
