Darn! I can't remember where I saw that. :rolleyes: Somewhere around 21 fake dead horses were made. I do remember seeing that somewhere....now where the heck was that?.....

Lindir 06-24-2004 11:08 AM

was it 150? i think :p

Anorial 06-24-2004 12:21 PM

Can I change my answer?

Anorial 06-24-2004 02:34 PM

Okay, I can't wait any longer :rolleyes: 40 fake dead horses were made :D

Samwise 06-24-2004 05:41 PM

I have no clue either.

1,000 ?

Orcrist 06-27-2004 09:50 PM

Anorial got it.

Anorial 07-01-2004 12:34 AM

Okay, here's one that I find interesting (hopefully you will too):

Prior to The Fellowship of the Rings, most movies had only parts or certain scenes digitally graded (adjusting colors, contrast etc. using computers). According to Peter Jackson (and he should know!), what percentage of Fellowship was adjusted digitally?

wilwarin538 07-01-2004 07:42 AM

Im gonna give a guess, 65%?

Kath 07-01-2004 03:23 PM

Well there must have been something in pretty much every scene so 95%?

Mad Baggins 07-01-2004 05:17 PM

80%?

Samwise 07-01-2004 08:11 PM

Um....
 
75%? :confused:

Anorial 07-05-2004 05:30 PM

Well, two of you are very close and equally close so I'm going to have to require the exact percentage. :)

Sleepy Ranger 07-06-2004 02:23 AM

um, 83%?

Gil-Galad 07-06-2004 09:36 AM

77%?

Mad Baggins 07-06-2004 10:58 AM

92.765% :D Just kidding...

92%?

Sleepy Ranger 07-06-2004 11:03 AM

um changing my older answer 78%

Orcrist 07-06-2004 11:58 AM

88%

Anorial 07-06-2004 01:11 PM

There's a real obvious one y'all are missing!

wilwarin538 07-06-2004 01:22 PM

100%?

Lindir 07-06-2004 01:43 PM

85%? :p

paavo 07-06-2004 03:19 PM

0%?

Anorial 07-06-2004 07:19 PM

Sorry paavo and wilwarin...not that obvious I guess ;)

Lindir's got the right idea...think, would Peter Jackson say "47.23% of the movie was digitally graded"? No! Also, check out the extras on the FotR DVD EE for the answer. :)

paavo 07-07-2004 03:15 PM

50 % then?

symestreem 07-07-2004 05:59 PM

70%?

Nirvana II 07-07-2004 06:06 PM

50%?????????

Anorial 07-07-2004 07:49 PM

Phew!! symestreem got it. I think it's pretty remarkable that they went over 70% of the movie, tweaking and adjusting it. For any of you who work on computers, especially with Photoshop or something, you can just imagine how much work that is! Just another example of how awesome PJ and the gang were!

Over to you symestreem!

Anorial 07-12-2004 08:11 PM

symestreem, I got an email saying you'd posted a question about Brad Dourif....where did it go!?

symestreem 07-12-2004 08:19 PM

Name three things the makeup people did to Brad Dourif's face.

Anorial 07-12-2004 08:35 PM

I'll say:
-gave him a spiky nose
-thickened one eyelid to make his face lopsided
-gave him slightly clouded contact lenses
-painted his face white with a bluish tinge
-air-brushed veins onto his face
-shaved his eyebrows
-gave him "weeping pustules"
-gave him dandruff and a greasy, patchy wig of straggly hair (not on his face but what the heck)
:)

symestreem 07-13-2004 06:17 AM

I'd say that qualifies. :)

Anorial 07-13-2004 08:02 AM

According to Ngila Dickson, Costume Designer, how many meters of cloth did each Black Rider costume take to make?

Samwise 07-13-2004 05:03 PM

Hm...
 
50? :confused:

wilwarin538 07-13-2004 05:20 PM

30?

Anorial 07-13-2004 06:07 PM

Good shot Samwise!! You've got it....over 50 meters of cloth was used for each Black Rider costume! :)

Samwise 07-13-2004 08:21 PM

Wow....
 
....I got it right? Go figure....:p I'll be back with a "fact" as soon as I can find one! ;)

Samwise 07-13-2004 08:34 PM

Liv and Let Dye
 
Why was Liv Tyler outfitted in reds and blues in the movies? ;)

Anorial 07-15-2004 08:52 PM

Because all the other elves were in pastel shades and they wanted her to stand out?

Samwise 07-15-2004 10:10 PM

No, but you're on the right track.

Anorial 07-15-2004 10:12 PM

They wanted her to look like royalty?

Samwise 07-15-2004 10:14 PM

No...
