LOTR Actors in other movies?

[keverzwijn]

Welcome Gimli son of Gloin. I liked the faculty with Wood and The other P.J. movies. There brilliant.

[Alaggaeriel]

For a website that lists every movie and show that an actor or actress has been in go to <A HREF="http://www.IMDb.com." TARGET=_blank>www.IMDb.com.</A> It's pretty cool!

Hey all<BR>Ever since i saw LOTR i have been obsessed with Elijah Wood. He is a brilliant actor and he has been in heaps of movies, Which i will list below. <P> * Radio Flyer<BR>* The good son<BR>* Day-o<BR>*Forever Young<BR>*North<BR>*Flipper<BR>*The War<BR>*Huck Finn<BR>*The Faculty<BR>*Black and White<BR>*LOTR (Well we all know that one)<BR>*Try Seventeen (Released 2003)<BR>*The Bumblebee flys Anyway (I can't find this in video stores.<BR>*The Ice Storm (I didn't like this movie)<BR>*Oliver Twist (I loved this movie, and his accent he put on. The rest wasn't that good though, but he was.)<BR>*Deep Impact (He needed more screen time)<BR>*Chain of Fools<BR>*Tom Thumb (This is animated)<BR>*Ash Wednesday <BR>*Thumbsucker (2003)<P>Well i think that was nearly all his movies. He has done so many, and has been acting since he was 7/8. His best movie being LOTR, he did a perfect role. Sorry if i have bored you but i think he deserves credit for all his movies. I have seen so many of his movies and they are all good.<P>Well sorry for boring you.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Dream the impossible because dreams do come true. (Elijah Wood) <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

viggo is in 28 days

[Diamond18]

Andy Serkis, who plays Gollum, played Bill Sikes in a very good version of "Oliver Twist" for television.<P>I've seen lots of other LotR actors in many movies, but they've all been listed so I won't bore you. But "The Matrix" is on TV as I type...who else can't resist quoting Agent Smith whenever Elrond is on the screen? "I'm sorry, Gandalf, but your hobbits are already dead."

[hobbitlass]

I read the posts and I don't think this is mentioned....Brad Dourif (Wormtongue) played in "One flew over the cuckoo's nest" with Jack Nicholson. He's the young guy who kills himself. <P>..."Nurse Ratchett, I want my cigarettes"...

[Elenna]

THE CALCIUM KID???? Please tell me that's a joke.<P>I got tossed out of a theater for saying "Mr. Anderson" after all of Elrond's lines. Plus I almost got beaten by some older man who is apparently a die-hard Tolkien fan with an attitude problem. He didn't stop yelling at me until I started cussing in Sindarin.

[hobbitlass]

No joke Elenna (sp?).<P>Wow, you speak Sindarin! So did the old fart know what you were saying? And what happened?!

[Frodo Baggins]

Does anyone know what episode of Babylon-5 Brad Dourif was in?? (he said himself that he was) And what part he played????

[Frodo Baggins]

Elenna that Mr. Anderson thing was not nice!!!!!!!! I have not seen The Matrix yet, so Hugo Weaving (who is an excellent actor!!!) is no one but Elrond to me. If I hear one more Agernt Elrond joke i think i will have a nervous breakdown. When I DO see The Matrix (I intend to soon) Hugo will remian Elrond. Judt Like Elijah will always be Frodo to me no matter how many movies I see him in>

[Elenna]

I don't speak Sindarin, but I got some great insults from a link in the Languages forum.<P>I am learning Quenya, but I don't think there are any real insults in such a beautiful language.

Good luck but pay attention to when he says "Mount Doom". It's really hard to NOT hear A. Smith at that point.

[Pookabunny]

A lot of the major movies with LOTR people in them were listed, but Oooh there's more folks....<P>Ian Holm was in this HORRIBLE movie titled "eXistenZ"<P>Liv Tyler was in this excellent movie titled "Stealing Beauty" and another good one called "Empire Records"<P>Cate Blanchette - The Shipping News<P>Sean Bean - Ronin<P>Elijah Wood - the Good Son<P>Viggo Mortensen - A Walk on the Moon, Young guns 2, Carlito's way, Daylight, Crimson Tide<P>Bernard Hill (King Theoden) was Captain Edward Smith in Titanic.<P>Wow the person who initiated this discussion certainly got a response!

[Tigerlily Gamgee]

Hmmm... what have I seen...<P>Elijah Wood: Oliver Twist (yes, it is pretty bad), The Ice Storm (Good Movie!), The Bumlebee Flies Anyway (Bad movie!), Radio Flyer (good), Forever Young (good)<P>Liv Tyler: That Thing You Do (good), & one other that I never caught the name of...<P>Sean Bean: Don't Say a Word<P>Sir Ian McKellen: X-Men, Gods and Monsters (with another fav actor!), Richard III (excellent movie)<P>Orlando Bloom: Black Hawk Down, Wilde<P>Cate Blanchette: Elizabeth<P>Hugo Weaving: The Matrix (duh!)<P>Sean Astin: Goonies (never say die)<P>Sadly, I have not seen any other Viggo movies (though I intend to). I hear that Billy Boyd will be in a movie with Russell Crowe soon...<BR>I have seen Indiana Jones, but it's been a while.<P>Miranda Otto is also in a movie with Harrison Ford and Michelle Pheipher (though I can't remember what it's called) - she is the girl that is drowned & you see her ghost...<P>Of course, I am sure we have all seen Titanic with the actor who plays Theoden.<P>Christopher Lee: Star Wars Episode 2, also.... he is the voice of King Haggard in The Last Unicorn!!!!

[Diamond18]

What Lies Beneath, maybe? Haven't seen it, but that's what it sounds like. Oh, and I haven't seen Titanic, you know. (oooh, aaah)

[Tigerlily Gamgee]

What Lies Beneath... that's it! Thanks

[Samwise]

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Sean Astin: Goonies (never say die)<BR> <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>LOL! Absolutely! He was soooo teeny tiny in that!! <P>Has anyone ever seen the movie, "Staying Together"?

[Kalimac]

I've seen a lot of them but those movies have already been listed, so to avoid repeats:<P>JOHN RHYS-DAVIES: MACRO in "I, Claudius" which is by far the best miniseries ever made, though it faces stiff competition from "Pride and Prejudice." It's impossible to recognize him since he's 25 years younger, clean-shaven, wearing a Roman centurion's uniform, and conspiring with the evil Caligula to butcher everybody in sight. Like Gimli, he has a fairly direct approach to things ("What are we waiting for? Let's destroy it!") but unlike Gimli he's doing it for pure personal gain and ends up being executed in the end, along with most of his compatriots.<P>ANDY SERKIS: MR. D'AUBAN the dancing master in "Topsy-Turvy." If you want to see Gollum as a perpetually boozed-up Cockney dancing-master trying to teach Japanese fan dances to the original cast of "The Mikado" this is definitely your movie. The thing is I saw this movie before LOTR came out, so knowing that it was Serkis voicing Gollum made it a little weird.

[Birdland]

Kalimac! I love that mini-series! (which BTW also has "Captain Picard" playing a VERY evil Sejanus. In fact, I've probably read "I, Claudius" and "Claudius the God" as many times as I've read LoTR. A perpetual favorite. Robert Graves Rules!<P>Also, does anyone know if that is Andy Serkis sitting in the boat as Smeagol in the recently released still from the Two Towers?<P>P.S. - Welcome back, Kalimac!<p>[ October 03, 2002: Message edited by: Birdland ]

[Kalimac]

Oh, remembered some more - Billy Boyd is *going* to be in the Aubrey/Maturin movie they're making right now. So maybe that can be counted as a "future appearance" - I mean, I'm definitely going to see it and all. <P>And - I don't think I saw this one here - IAN MCKELLEN as Amos the itinerant preacher in Cold Comfort Farm, where he has the immortal line (when preaching to the Quiverers congregation) "But THERE IS NO BUTTER IN HELL!" He's hard to recognize but look closely. <P>Birdie - Thanks! Nice to see you guys again as well. Can't believe it's been so long; between finally moving into our new apartment, waiting for $%#)* DSL to be hooked up (it only took four visits from the telephone company over the course of six weeks, grrrr), and the new internet tracking at work, I was still shocked to realize it had been 3 months. Oy. Never again. And Patrick Stewart as Sejanus is something else - almost as unrecognizable as Rhys-Davies though; look, he has HAIR!

Ha, I have seen every EW movie. I've seen a lot of movies with the others in some too.<P>There are SOOOO many!

[Frodo Baggins]

I almost forgot!!!<P>I saw Liv Tyler in "That Thing You Do"<P>And I wastched an episode of "Hetty Winthrop Investigates" one with my Grandma and saw Dominic Monhangan.<P>Must see The Goonies soon! Very soon!

[Samwise]

Stacey: Mr. Baggins, you've never seen GOONIES (she takes this to mean that Cahira hasn't either)???<P>Sam: Er, Miss Stacey, Miss Cahira <I>is</I> a<BR>tad younger than you... <P>Stacey: *Does some quick calculation* Oh, yeah...

[Salix]

I have seen :<BR>Elijah Wood in The good son and flipper<BR>Ian Mckellen in The Last Action hero <BR>AND I've heard that Brad Dorif plays the voice of a character in Myst III! (computer game)

[Brinniel]

Well, movies I've actually seen with LOTR actors in it are:

Sean Astin: Goonies
Ian McKellan: X-Men
Christopher Lee: Star Wars II, Sleepy Hollow
Sean Bean: Goldeneye, Black Beauty
Miranda Otto: What Lies Beneath
Cate Blanchett: Bandits
David Wenham: Moulin Rouge
Liv Tyler: Armageddon
Bernard Hill: Titanic, Ghandi
Viggo Mortensen: G.I. Jane
Orlando Bloom: Black Hawk Down (part of it)
Hugo Weaving: The Matrix, Matrix Reloaded, Babe
John Rhys-Davies: Aladdin and the King of Thieves
Ian Holm: some old WWII movie (I can't remember what it's called)

Strange...I have not seen many of the movies the actors from LOTR are in. You'd think I would considering I am fans of all of them.

I have actually really never watched it, but I watched the first part of it on cable (bravo, they sometimes show it on there) because I saw in the opening credits that Ian Holm was in it.

*peeps in* just to be patriotic, Mr Bloom was in <I>Ned Kelly</I> and lets not forget his upcoming role in <I>Troy</I>..but we are talking about current movies so I'll leave it at that and run out before you all kill me for being an Orli lover...

[Ophelia]

I do not know but has anybody menchioned the new film with Ian . It's called "Emil" . I kinda dunno what is it about but I saw the interwiew where he talked about LotR too . And as far as I saw what was goin' on on the set he has a grate sence of humor . And he is really good in realtions with kids .

[Wolvaurynomir]

Mmm....<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Hugo Weaving is the voice of Rex in Babe.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>I had COMPLETELY forgotten about that! *has a good giggle* Right, then....<P>Anyway, some movies that haven't been mentioned yet:<P>Sean Bean - <I>Anna Karenina</I> (unless you want severe depression, don't watch it, or just stop it halfway through and pretend it all works out just fine), <I>Equilibrium</I>, <I>Essex Boys</I>, <I>Jacob: A TNT Bible Story</I>. He <I>also</I> has an upcoming role in <I>Troy</I>.<P>Brad Dourif - The episode <I>Beyond the Sea</I> in the X-Files TV series. I believe it's early in the second season. He plays Luther Lee Boggs, a self-proclaimed psychic, and does an excellent job doing so. I hear Chris Carter was absolutely overjoyed when they got him to play the part. He was also in <I>Urban Legend</I>, <I>Nightwatch</I>, <I>Alien: Resurrection</I>, <P>Viggo Mortensen: <I>Witness</I> (he has all of one line and it's in Dutch. Just a very brief cameo.

Okay, I just saw Moulin Rouge again, and is my observation correct that David Wenham is playing a girl?! LOL That cracked me up!
