Lord of the Rings Movies Discussion #2: there’s some good in this world
 

Continue :wiggle:

Thanks for the new thread, Andie. :hug:

You're welcome, Dan. Now tell me what you think about The Hobbit trailer though :P

:wave: New here. Big Aragorn fan. He's my favorite fictional character of all time. My only problem with his portrayal in the movies is that I don't think Viggo Mortensen is/was tall enough. Aragorn is supposed to be among the tallest of men.
:cat:

Welcome, Strider :wave:

Great to see you join us over here too :D Are you excited to see The Hobbit? :look:

Welcome strider :wave:

You've got a point there, even though it didn't bother me that much in the movies, probably due to Viggo's intense portrayal.

Speaking of The Hobbit, they had an audition for some extras the other day and the turnout apparently went way beyond what everyone expected:

:eek: Well, if I'd been close I would have tried too :lol:

Me too, it's a once-in-a-livetime opportunity, definitely wouldn't want to miss that :nod:

If it was anywhere near me I would of made sure I was first in line. :lol:

:lol: And make the headlines for fighting several people to get the first spot ;)

:lol: I so would.

:nod:

Guess we'd all have to fight with each other :lmao:

Nad, you're modding 4 boards? Don't you sleep? ;)

I didn't like Viggo's performance. But not due to height. I found him too cold and grim. I would have preferred if they'd made Sean Bean Aragorn and Viggo or somebody else (Daniel Craig?) into Boromir. Or I could see Eric Bana as Aragorn, or Gerard Butler. But not Viggo.

Peter Jackson published another production video the other day:
