Well, if we want to take a realistic approach, I doubt I'd get any role, maybe at most "Hobbit extra" or "Esgarothian extra" (in TH film) which is not too flattering maybe.

But wait twenty years and I'd do my best to give you a convincing Haleth, one of the characters I admire the most...

I doubt it... but I do have a very blue-eyed Tom Bombadil as my father, does that count?

No need to be realistic! Use your wildest imaginings!

There's no way I could pass for Gandalf, but it would still be my fave role

In that case I will have Richard Armitage as my Faramir... David Wenham is nice enough looking but Numenorean he ain't.

Alright, if that's to be the casting choice for Faramir then I'll just have to fight you for the role of Eowyn.

Cheese and pickle please Lal, other than that I'm afraid it would have to be the squint-eyed southerner, being a narfforc.

.... I sometimes can't decide if he would be better as Boromir or Faramir but if I am to be Eowyn....

If they kept Sean Bean as Boromir and maybe got David Tennant in to play Aragorn then there might be serious problems in choosing roles, not that the script would get much attention...

Ah yer can keep the pair of 'em. I dont' find Sean Bean attractive and though DT is a fine actor he is so not Aragorn. Never got over him playing a psychopathic murderer. Still think Daniel Day Lewis would have been a good Aragorn. Hugh Jackman (though brown eyed ... ) would work for me as Boromir to RA's Faramir...

Ok, that explains it I guess.

I think Queen Beruthiel would be an interesting part (but not for me).
