yup yup yup, it was viggo, talking about the aragorn action figure [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

You may proceed!

Mariska Greenleaf · 09-07-2003, 06:05 AM

Thanks!

He’s an eternal character but as an actor you play it as you see it in front of you and trust in that.

Me think not so easy... [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Rochelle · 09-07-2003, 11:52 AM

Hmmm...perhaps Hugo Weaving?

Mariska Greenleaf · 09-07-2003, 12:20 PM

Nope.

ElenCala Isil · 09-07-2003, 01:39 PM

now this one, I believe I have heard. I believe it was Ian Holm? maybe? perhaps?

Evisse the Blue · 09-07-2003, 03:18 PM

Maybe Ian McKellen?

Luthien_ Tinuviel · 09-07-2003, 06:40 PM

Christopher Lee?

Mariska Greenleaf · 09-08-2003, 02:56 AM

Elencala has it!!

ElenCala Isil · 09-08-2003, 01:15 PM

whee! okay, next quote:

Quote:

it's a bit more tragic

good luck, hope it's not too short-lived.. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Luthien_ Tinuviel · 09-08-2003, 03:41 PM

I honestly have no idea, so my random guess is Sean Bean.

Evisse the Blue · 09-08-2003, 03:45 PM

Lijah?

ElenCala Isil · 09-08-2003, 04:34 PM

nope. Not Sean Bean (why doesn't that rhyme?!?!?!) or Elwood

Cinderella · 09-08-2003, 04:54 PM

Viggo?

ElenCala Isil · 09-08-2003, 05:57 PM

Nay, 'tis not Viggo either.

Horse-Maiden of the Shire · 09-08-2003, 06:54 PM

Is it Sean Astin? Or perhaps Viggo? I think I've heard this one...

ElenCala Isil · 09-08-2003, 08:28 PM

nope, it's not Sean, and Viggo has been mentioned [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Mariska Greenleaf · 09-09-2003, 01:18 AM

It is Miranda Otto.

ElenCala Isil · 09-09-2003, 12:24 PM

yes indeed-y Mirando Otto it is.

The full quote is:

Quote:

There's more to come in the third film, it's a bit more tragic, but it will end up happily I hope.

You may proceed [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Mariska Greenleaf · 09-09-2003, 12:39 PM

Thank you so much! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Quote:

"Peter Jackson is just brilliant. The whole atmosphere was great."

good luck!

Cinderella · 09-09-2003, 02:23 PM

Elijah

Evisse the Blue · 09-09-2003, 02:52 PM

Now that's what I call a hard quote. It could have been anyone. I'll go with Sean Bean.

Luthien_ Tinuviel · 09-09-2003, 03:06 PM

Quote:

Not Sean Bean (why doesn't that rhyme?!?!?!)

It should! [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I'll follow my regular line of hobbits-first guessing and go with Sean Astin... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Eruwen · 09-09-2003, 06:04 PM

I'm going with Dominic Monaghan because he says "brilliant" all the time! Besides, guessing Dom has always given good luck for me in the past. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Mariska Greenleaf · 09-10-2003, 01:43 AM

No one has it yet.
I will give some clues because it really is a hard one.

-it is a male
-he wasn't a member of the fellowship
-he is in fotr and ttt

That should make it a lot easier! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

[ September 10, 2003: Message edited by: Mariska Greenleaf ]

ElenCala Isil · 09-10-2003, 10:28 AM

well, at first I thought it might have been Dom, but now that I have a few clues to help solve it, I am pretty sure that this might have been Craig Parker. I went through some of his quotes before, this one seems familiar. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Mariska Greenleaf · 09-10-2003, 11:41 AM

And Elencala has it again!! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

ElenCala Isil · 09-10-2003, 12:58 PM

huzzah! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Next quote:

Quote:

I got so used to it.

Good Luck!

Mariska Greenleaf · 09-10-2003, 01:17 PM

Ooh, that is a tricky one, isn't it?
No?? Yes??

Anyways, I think...Lawrence Makoare.
I read that in an interview with the guy.
Hey, but it could be anyone really...
[img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

ElenCala Isil · 09-10-2003, 02:11 PM

apparently not tricky enough, you are quite correct!

He was talking about how it took eleven hours to get on all his prosthetics.. and how he eventually got used to it.

[img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Mariska Greenleaf · 09-11-2003, 03:11 AM

Hahaa [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Okay, for a new one...

Quote:

If you were ready, and you wanted to party, you were there.

Have fun with this one! [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Eärendil · 09-11-2003, 10:24 AM

I remember reading an interview with Brad Dourif where he said something like that, so I´ll guess on him.

Mariska Greenleaf · 09-11-2003, 12:02 PM

You guessed absolutely right!
And I thought it wasn't that easy... [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Well done [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Samwise · 09-11-2003, 08:54 PM

Please enlighten me....who is Lawrence Makoare?
[img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img]

Horse-Maiden of the Shire · 09-11-2003, 09:44 PM

Lawrence Makoare played Lurtz in FotR. Did a right good job of it, I think.

Samwise · 09-11-2003, 10:26 PM

OH! Thank you for the enlightenment. Whoa...imagine having to put all that Orc stuff on... [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

Eärendil · 09-12-2003, 04:38 AM

I´ll take an (for me) easy one this time.

Sarah McLeod, our most beloved Rosie!

Eärendil · 09-15-2003, 10:28 AM

Of course. *smiles* (See? Easy quote...)
Please proceed.

vanwalossien · 08-05-2002, 07:38 AM

OK, here's some quotes from the actors of the movie, can anyone guess who said:

"These things are like boats with toes on them!" (on the fake hobbit feet used in LOTR)

" - doesn't speak a lot - - prefers to let his actions speak for -. -'s moves are smooth and elegant, like a cat. You know how cats can jump and land steadily on their paws? That's what I'm trying to do. There's a strength in that, but it's very balletic. It's also bloody hard to do without falling over!" (on his/her charcter's movements)

" To play one of the main characters in it, it's not the kind of thing you don't do. Oh, I'd rather not play - in Lord of the Rings..., In fact, what else would you rather do, you know? I can't actually think of another job that I'd rather do."
