Kath 07-16-2004 07:47 AM

Was it so she was the opposite of somebody? Possibly Eowyn, or maybe Galadriel?

Samwise 07-16-2004 07:52 AM

No....it had to do with the other elves that she was around.

Kath 07-16-2004 07:58 AM

Well then is it because she's Elrond's daughter? She is of a more noble family?

Samwise 07-16-2004 08:02 AM

No. It had to do with Liv Tyler herself, not her character.

Kath 07-16-2004 08:06 AM

The richer colours made her look paler, more elvenlike?

Anorial 07-16-2004 09:23 AM

Well, they're darker colors so maybe because she wasn't super slender, they made her look more elven slender?

NightKnight 07-16-2004 11:12 AM

Because she had dark hair?

Samwise 07-16-2004 04:03 PM

No, no and no....though Kath is closest, it had to do with her coloring.

elfwishes999 07-16-2004 04:15 PM

were they her favorite colors? :confused:

wilwarin538 07-16-2004 04:21 PM

maybe cause she was one of the few elves to have dark hair? that could be really off, but oh well.

Samwise 07-16-2004 04:37 PM

It DID have to do with Liv Tyler's physical self. ;) I don't know how to give anymore hints without totally giving it away....well....

It had to do with what I said above, and the way the other elves were dressed, according to the magazine article I have....

Orcrist 07-16-2004 07:22 PM

Her eye color maybe?

Samwise 07-16-2004 08:26 PM

No, not her eyes....

Orcrist 07-16-2004 09:00 PM

She was a female? (That makes no sense but I can't think of anything else)

Samwise 07-16-2004 11:16 PM

Um...
 
It had to do with her skin coloring....and the other Elves.

wilwarin538 07-17-2004 08:02 AM

she was darker then the other elves so the reds and blues made her look lighter?




Happy birthday to me!!!! :D

Samwise 07-17-2004 08:47 AM

Oh, boy...
 
Not exactly....anyone have a copy of the May 2004 Entertainment Weekly Special Collector's issue? That's where I got this. :p

PS: Happy Birthday, wilwarin! ;)

Kath 07-17-2004 01:10 PM

Was it something to do with the clothes they originally out in swamping her? So they simplified them so she wasn't so buried - therefore making her look more ethereal. I have just made this up so feel free to laugh.

Samwise 07-17-2004 04:24 PM

Good guess....
 
...but no. :( It had to do with Liv Tyler's skin and the clothing of the OTHER Elves.

Kath 07-18-2004 04:01 AM

Erm . . . she had paler skin than the other elves and they wanted to show this up?

Samwise 07-18-2004 08:16 AM

Oh, boy...you're kind of sort of close, Kath. It had to do with something clashing...(colorwise)....

Kath 07-18-2004 03:10 PM

The paler clothes of the type worn by the other elves clashed with her skin colour so they put her in darker clothes?

Samwise 07-18-2004 03:54 PM

Ah, Kath's close enough.

According to the article in the Special Edition of Entertainment Weekly (RE: "The Costumer; Ngila Dickson)

"Since the grays, greens, and yellows that represented the color scheme for most Elves clashed with Liv Tyler's complexion, she was outfitted in more complementary reds and blues. "

Kath has the floor, so to speak. ;)

Anorial 07-23-2004 01:15 PM

Bump!

Samwise 07-23-2004 02:35 PM

:confused: Kath? You out there? :confused:

Kath 07-24-2004 05:18 AM

Sorry! This'll have to be a quick one because I'm off on holiday tomorrow so:
Who was to play Aragorn originally?

Anorial 07-24-2004 07:56 AM

Kath 07-24-2004 07:57 AM

Yup.

Samwise 07-24-2004 09:35 AM

...but we're SO glad it was Viggo Mortensen....;)

Anorial 07-24-2004 03:15 PM

Where was the big Palennor Fields horse charge shot?

Lindir 07-25-2004 11:12 AM

Twizel? I think...maybe that was the Rohan calvary charge.....oh well... :p

wilwarin538 07-25-2004 11:17 AM

Lindir 07-25-2004 11:26 AM

Orcrist 07-29-2004 10:22 AM

Samwise 07-29-2004 11:02 AM

I think Orcist has it.

The Perky Ent 07-29-2004 11:07 AM

6 1/3?

Orcrist 07-29-2004 07:34 PM

Uh Perky, what does 6 1/3 mean? :confused:
