A note of interest I would like to add is that I am actully the author of the thread, Roborovskii, but TheGreatElvenWarrior was giving me so much trouble over "how stupid" the thread was (apparently I was killing squirrels) that I decided to start a new account as Laurinque.
Forgive me for finding this amusing. But you needn't worry about it. The fact that several old downers posted on this thread with no problem, shows it isn't stupid enought to "kill squirrels". By the way, old downers for me count as people who have topped 1000 posts.

Despite being a very straight male, i think Sean Bean and Vigo pull off the best looking title. Nonetheless! i thought Liv Tyler was quite attractive at times.

Saying that, i think the female actors have been in more complimenting films over the years.

Glad to hear I was not murduring squirrels, and I really do like this name better so no worries.

I really have no clue why I like Billy Boyd so much Lalaith, I think it is mostly the fact I am so fond of his character, Pippin.

Ah, now if Diamond were around right now, she would I suspect be your New Best Friend.

Yes, Other Lal - Airhead Corner. Hehe. If only there was now some way I could bring Richard Armitage into this conversation....oh yes, I know, he could have been a really good Faramir.

Back when I was a kid of twelve I'd immediately say Orlando Bloom. But right now I say the most beautifully portrayed chars is Galadriel (there is something in Cate Blanchett that seems very apt for Galadriel and in her other role as Elizabeth). Arwen by Liv Tyler, I dunno. I think the guys that the fact that I don't like her very much in the movies is just due to the fact that Arwen's role is much too... not-very-bookish. Miranda Otto is quite nice too. A gorgeous Celtic warrior princess with a broken heart, she's quite nice. And don't forget Gollum. Andy Serkis was simply superb.

David Wenham is quite nice too, but I think he just looks a bit too... fat. No, I think I'm just weird. Ahahaha.
