actor for aragorn - Page 3

Gwaimir Windgem · 03-11-2003, 10:21 PM

Age would definitely have been a part in it. As the real Aragorn had some grey hairs, and I think that guy is what? Like in his 20s?

age definately but a bigger part of it would be acting abilities and both Viggo and DDL are obviously very top actors...

Try as we might, we'd have still thought of him as Hawkeye in The Last of the Mohicans.

no way, i thought about that before i went and saw GoNY but as Bill the Butcher he looked nothing like Hawkeye and even less as Aragorn... mainly because it has been a few years between movies for DDL and he is ageing... anyways i cant complain Viggo did a perfect job but that they even considered Stuart Townsend us enough to make my stomach turn

Gwaimir Windgem · 03-12-2003, 12:07 AM

DDL? Who's that?

Daniel Day Lewis I assume.
I don't think I even need to explain my opinion on the topic of this thread.

Who could have guessed that the redhead loverboy painter in the film (what was the name again?) with Douglas and Paltrow would become Aragorn. He really is good and mature Aragorn (but looks much younger than 89, ha ha), and is my wife's favourite.

Viggo was just the perfect choice (not the first - like Miranda Otto - but the perfect). I mean his looks, his voice. He is Aragorn.

Gwaimir Windgem · 03-12-2003, 05:37 PM

Not perfect. He doesn't have grey hairs.

Legolas_Frodo_Aragorn · 03-12-2003, 10:34 PM

well...stuarts better looking than viggo...but not aragorn at all

Fanëar · 03-12-2003, 10:54 PM

sorry I would have to disagree.

Viggo is muchmore hndsome. If Stuart were picked to play the part, Every time I saw him on the screen I would think "Oh gosh theres the creepy little guy from QOTD! ) I dont think Stuart would have been right for the part at all

Gwaimir Windgem · 03-12-2003, 11:25 PM

Did you think 'oh gosh there's that little dolphin boy' every time Elijah Wood came on the screen?

Lalaith · 03-13-2003, 12:01 PM

coming back to laughing a small pale little elijah with the dirty fingernails ....

Grey hair woudn't be good looking enough for a movie, I guess.
