Yes, they used all the main charectars as extras as well. Frodo was an Orc!!

An obvious example of typecasting. ]: )

!!! Which one?? *Starts thinking of all the orcs in the movie*

Lady_of_the_Golden_Wood · 02-19-2003, 10:09 PM

That is somewhat sad. Frodo doesn't deserve to be an orc.

gimli7410 · 02-19-2003, 10:36 PM

u mean they put eligah wood as an orc

Gwaimir Windgem · 02-19-2003, 10:58 PM

Hmmm...Would PJ play Morgoth, if they had a flashback of him?

Where? I never saw him... never watched all of credits either, though I did listen to the music in the theater!

poor Gil-galad never gets the attention he deserves

he cuts down an orc then when its on the ground he slams his spear down into it... surprising amount of detail for his 3 seconds
if you dont have the concept art of the FotR here is a link for the Gil-galad concept designs http://www.princeofmirkwood.com/gil.html#earmour.jpg
and here are some pictures of actual movie Gil-galad
http://www.shanfan.com/nongymn/movie...dmiscpics.html

as for Legolas being at the start either
a) it was Orlando, shich is likely as they were pretty cheap and just used whoever was around at the time

or
b) it wasnt Orlando and most elves look the same anyways

Gwaimir Windgem · 02-20-2003, 11:51 AM

But they aren't REAL Elves.

Aralyn · 02-21-2003, 10:33 PM

In the battle of Helm's deep a few secs after the first arrow is fired there is a shot of PJ. Did you see it?

Gwaimir Windgem · 02-22-2003, 01:00 AM

Was he wearing a bunch of spikey armor? *envisions a pot-bellied Sauron*

Aralyn · 02-23-2003, 02:35 PM

That's good Gwaimir but I said HELM'S DEEP not . . . whatever the other battle is called

#1GaMGeeGuRL · 02-23-2003, 02:46 PM

I thought there was a guy that looked like Haldir, but yeah Legolas was in there too.

Yes. "Frodo was an Orc" is just an interesting thing to consider. (He was an Elf too.)

I don't know who the blond Elf is. Perhaps Thranduil or maybe just an extra. I don't think it was Orlando, though. With the wig and similar clothing it made them look similar.

Does this blond elf extra die? If yes, then it might be Oropher, Thranduil's father, who also fought in that war, but was slain.

Which scene was that in? And you mean in FotR, right?

Ruinel · 02-25-2003, 03:36 PM

I would love to see pics of these people in their different characters in the movies if anyone can get them.

Millane, thanks for the Gil-galad pics. They're great.

straight_face · 02-25-2003, 07:06 PM

I'm positive they did not put Thranduil or Legolas in the battle. It was a coincedence, obviously, and there are a lot of pretty Elves out there, remember that. Did anyone know that Legolas almost took the role of Boromir? (True)

'What are we going to do now then?' asked Pippin, undaunted by the wizard's bristling brows. "Knock on the door with your head, Peregrin Took,' said Gandalf.
