YOU GOT IT RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!Ok, I'll stop with all the exclamation points now. But, lo and behold, yes is was indeed Alan Howard, the ever famous voice of the "one ring". You had to have done your research there, Mariska. Props for you. Your turn!

Yes, I know that this quote is limiting the possible actors,
but it's not Viggo either...

I'll steal Samwise's guess and go with Sean Astin! (not sure why though!)

I think I remember seeing the quote somewhere, and if my memory serves then in that case Lyta would right.... But I'll go with Miranda Otto, just because.

Hm... I haven't seen the name of the actor that I'm looking for just yet.
Although someone came pretty close. Not to say, real close!

Nope.
Maybe it's a good idea to run through the guesses that already have been done, because it's there, but I really demand the name of the actor!

Well, since I am in a mood for this actor, and I am searching for pictures of him, I will guess Elijah Wood.

Well I would say Peter Jackson, but he is not an actor. So I think I will go with the guess of Sir Ian McKellen (I know it sounds like an odd choice, but I am just going to go with it).

For some reason I'm thinking Li'l Mr. Wood, too, but since he's been said,

Sean Astin?

Nope.

Hint: It's a she, and this should be a major giveaway hint, considering who's already been guessed.
