Am I the only one here who finds this picture of Frodo disturbing?
I was looking around the net last night for information on LOTR (Considering I'm new to it...I did find out that Legolas is 2,931 years-of-age)
And I found this picture: http://img-www.theonering.net/images/scrapbook/3641.jpg Am I the only one here who is dusterbed by it?

HEE HEE HEE HEE! I am DYING laughing. Cassandra Claire needs to see this. ROFL Where in Middle Earth did you find that pic?
I'm curious as to whether it's an outtake from the FotR, or if it's gonna be in the TT. Or, perhaps, it's not Elijah? Maybe some wannabe? I dunno...I have an (overly) active imagination. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Somewhere in TheOneRing.net.
And from what I came to understand it, it was some sort of thing from a russain mag. And I don't blame you for haveing a over active imagenation...This picture could make a persons imagenation run into overtime...

Yes, that is disturbing. Scary. If you have not looked at it yet DON'T!!! I think that it is Elijah, but maybe it is not Frodo? His hair did not look long enough.

I'm pretty sure that that's just plain Elijah, not him as Frodo.
And even though I like both Elijah and Frodo, I admit that that pic is a little disturbing. o_O; I don't know why he ever did whatever it is exactly that he's doing in that pic... |

Yep, I'd say it's just Elijah. They wouldn't let him take his clothes off in the FotR...*sniffles* Hee Hee.

Gee..I didn't know this was going to offend anybody...
And one of the reasons I said Frodo is because I can't spell that young mans name right....And to Me it looked a little like him. [ September 04, 2002: Message edited by: Kithrčna Greenarrow Legolas ]

LOL...my dear girl, I don't think anyone's offended. Rather the opposite, eh folks? LOL *Nods along with ork_huntr*...that's why I mentioned Cassandra. Great minds think alike, what? I sure got a good laugh. Lata!

That's the second one like that I've seen. The first was attatched to an interview done in California near the desert, and the implication was that Wood had rolled in the dirt in the desert and then flopped onto his back, looking backwards at the camera (feet furthest from the camera in other words), for the shot. The smudging was different for that picture, the lighting was less murky, and his hair was a bit longer and curlier, but still not Frodo length.
I think it's just a photographers' method of getting those blue eyes to pop out of the picture at you. This picture looks upside down to me. I think he's flat on his back, looking over his head at the camera. That would get the angle and the arch backwards.

LOL! That is definitely Elijah and definitely not Frodo!! Look at the ears! They are human! Why he had a picture taken of him covered in dirt I do not know, but it is NOT from LOTR!

It is interseting what ideas you get from strange pictures, isn'it? One time I read an interview of M. Night Shyamalam, and it included pictures that made him look FREAKY! :eek : (and I have seen a live inerview of him, and he did not look scary there) And yes, that picture IS disturbing.

I sowed the picture to a Chat-Room friend of Mine and she emideitly put it on as wallpaper.
Also had sevreal friends over as well, they asked for ME to E-mail it to them after resizeing it to thier screen resulition... I think its a hit among My crowed ^_^ Also, Marli don't have to do it...I ALLREADY DID IT!!! (And I don't have a night light either...) And I might also add that My printer did a photo quallity finish to it...Although, the photo paper might have had something to do with it [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [ September 05, 2002: Message edited by: Kithrčna Greenarrow Legolas ]

He just didn't get caught setting off the fireworks like Merry and Pippin did! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
That was the age PJ gave to Legolas, in the books Tolkien gives no age or birthdate for him.

That picture, I believe, was for a modeling company. Dreadful; but hey, they want to appeal to all the little girls out there.
I am too old to accept this...damn, you know, I am just about Sean Bean's age. I found Boromir rather more attractive than I have ever seen Sean look. (Long hair always does it for me...) The Hobbits are far to young for me to dare look at. And that pic?! Makes me want to go get a washcloth. K'mere, kid, you've some dirt behind your ears...! (i can see him squirming and yelling "Not now, Mom!"

I use Windows 7 on an Acer PC with a Canon MP240 series printer and the picture prints out in colour without a problem.
I can use File > Save Page As… and save the picture in JPG format and in various other formats. I am using the Firefox web browser. But I also have no difficulty if I switch to IE Explorer. I don’t know what is causing your difficulty because I cannot duplicate your problem. Last edited by jallanite; 05-23-2012 at 07:29 AM. |

Not that scary or disturbing. I can't see why it is disturbing or what. I, however, am disturbed about what Frodo could have been ....
A deleted scene where Faramir has a vision of Frodo's transformation into another Gollum. Isn't this disturbing? Glorthelion.
