He declined the role. Here is one guy trying to imitate a Cage impression. Just wonder how the legacy of Lord of the Rings would have been if he played such a famous written character like Aragorn
I just watched the movie Tolkien and I was wondering how much of it is not correct?
I just started studying Tolkien's middle earth last year and know I'm trying to learn more about the writer.
If anyone has any information they would like to share with me about his life, that would be amazing.
I was watching Fellowship of the Ring and in the Council of Elrond scene, after Gimli tries to destroy the ring, there are 7 shards left around the ring. Could this possibly be a reference to the 7 rings of power given to the dwarves?
I have just learned about the existence of a movie called "Tolkien", about Tolkien's life. I am deeply interested, though unsure of whether it is a good movie to watch, as it is a Hollywood production... Has anyone here watched it? How good is it? What is it about? Is it close to what Tolkien's...
What are your favorite songs/poems/quotes/lines from the book?
If someone else has already started one about favorite lines from the book, please let me know. I personally have way too many favorites. my three favorite are:
"All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are...
Hey guys, It is an inevitable fact that silmarillion movies will be made after the amazon series ends. I will be in LA when the silmarillion movies are made. I have a question that I am wondering about. I am asking very seriously. Please take it seriously because it is an important issue for me...
I was just thinking about the scene in Fellowship where you see them hiking past the ruins of Ost-in-Edhil, and I got to wondering what other ruins are pictured. Certainly Amon Hen where Boromir tries to take the Ring, but does anyone know what other ruins we see that can be identified? The...
Hi fellow Tolkien Fans!
Hope this thread can reach a lot of people :) I am conducting an audience research in the form of a questionnaire to research the potentials for the Silmarillion movie(s). This is an IF there will be a movie or made for The Silmarillion and what are our expectations and...
This is a theoretical .and is well beyond the movies of the turn of the century...
If the movie was never made back then but was being made today, who would you cast for the roles?
Here are the ladies I'd choose:
Arwen - Biatriz (Bia) Arantes
Galadriel - Amber Heard
Eowyn - Rachael Taylor
Now...
Hi,
I was just looking again at the movies and I'm still in doubt about something.
After the destruction of the ring, three eagles comes to pick Sam and Frodo.
Can we suppose that the third one was for Smeagol?
(Sorry if already asked, but I didn't find the answer).
Thanks
This is no breaking news for most but it was to me. it seems Tolkien's great-grandson Royd Tolkien, played one of Faramir's rangers in the movies.
s great
as you all know, aragorn in lotr movies is much stronger than aragorn in the book. he defeats the witch king and 5 other nazgul. he kills tens of uruk-hai alone etc. etc. what if aragorn and fingolfin in the movie universe had a 1 to 1 sword duel under normal and equal conditions, which would...
I've been reading The Silmarillion and am over halfway through. Many of the events in the book are so extraordinary and ethereal that it seems like producing a movie would be an extremely tough task. None the less I really want to see a movie made, it almost has to because it is the only work...
The Film Programme - Christopher Lee on The Lord Of The Rings - BBC Sounds
Hopefully you'll be able to hear this - features a masterful put down of Harry Potter by Lee
I think he did it smart on that one. In the book Gollum is depicted as dark.
But realistically if you were in a cave with no sunlight, being pale is most likely to be a thing. But in Fellowship of the Ring movie, Gollum is depicted as dark looking in that one. And then Two Towers is when you...
