Has anyone else noticed this??? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Saurannûn the Wood Elf · 04-01-2003, 06:24 PM

It's creepy, but in the movie, EVERY SINGLE CHARACTER has blue eyes! Am I the only person who noticed. If so, I'm sorry for being weirdly obsessed. But if not, isn't it totally creepy?

Firondoiel · 04-01-2003, 06:30 PM

Not every cast member has blue eyes. Sean Astin has brown eyes, John Rhys-Davies has brown eyes. I know Sean Bean and Viggo Mortenson have green. But most of them do have blue eyes. Yeah that is kind of wierd. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>I'm sorry for being weirdly obsessed <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>No you're not wierdly obsessed. People who don't even really like the movies have noticed the blue eye thing. And hey! It's not a bad thing to be obsessed! I'm an obsessed fan all the way and I'm not ashamed of it either!

Saurannûn the Wood Elf · 04-01-2003, 06:33 PM

But see, everyone must have been given contacts or something. But I just remembered, Christopher Lee had brown eyes in the movie. . .but I swear everyone else had blue eyes (at least on screen)! . . .either that or I'm insane. . .

Boromir's eyes are green, if memory serves. I don't think they had Sean Bean wearing contacts for his role.

Does anyone else get the creeps when Elija Wood gives you that "hopeless" stare, and his huge BLUE eyes bulge out at you?!Himaran

Birdland · 04-02-2003, 12:32 AM

Blue-eyed Ents. Blue-eyed Orcs. Oh, and wait, the Balrog had...blue wings!I think you just must like blue eyes, hon. Therefore, you notice them more.

04-02-2003, 04:47 AM

The blue eye thing is kinda creepy. Oh well I hardly look anyone or thing in the eyes anyway.

Meela · 04-02-2003, 06:30 AM

i hate blue eyes. mmm... viggo eyes...what colour eyes did Grima have? blue?and were treebeard's red or yellow?and what colour eyes did Faramir have?

Once again, this is all very simple.Lush = Blue Eyes, Cool = Lush. When we apply rudimentary algebra skills, we come up with: Blue Eyes = Cool. This concept is wide-spread enough for the filmmakers to have been aware of it. Voila: the coolest characters in the movie have blue eyes. Hope this helped.

Meela · 04-03-2003, 03:35 AM

ok... Lotr thread...How many eye colours did Tolkien actually make reference to? For instance, did Aragorn really have blue/green eyes? And Legolas. Apparently he was dark haired. Did Tolkien state that he had brown eyes to match? Or blue? or no eyes at all? Do the elves have an eye colour? Like, the different colonies have different hair colours. Does the same thing happen for eyes, or do they relate to hair colour, liek blue/blonde, brown/brown?

Saurannûn the Wood Elf · 04-03-2003, 03:15 PM

WHOA!Okay. Legolas was SUPPOSED to have blonde hair. But, the books said nothing in reference to the eye colour. It's just that I thought it was kinda disturbing when I saw it, that's all!

Keeper of Dol Guldur · 04-03-2003, 03:47 PM

Frodo, Gandalf, and Galadriel definitely had blue eyes, and were definitely all ring bearers, Elrond might have. Aragorn's eyes had to serve as 'grey' (as in grey like a king's eyes), blue was about as close as they could get, seemingly. Arwen's were blue. Yeah, all the characters that it showed the eyes of up close were blue. Cool.

Firondoiel · 04-03-2003, 08:55 PM

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Okay. Legolas was SUPPOSED to have blonde hair.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>Does it say that in the books? A lot of people say he's supposed to have dark hair. Could you tell me where it says he has blonde hair?

MLD-Grounds-Keeper-Willie · 04-03-2003, 09:12 PM

It doesn't say for sure what hair colored, but many people believe he has blond hair. I also think that he has blond hair, but then again, there are also many people who think that he had dark hair.

GaladrieloftheOlden · 04-03-2003, 09:26 PM

Not the Legolas hair color discussion aain...please...

Silmarien · 04-03-2003, 09:36 PM

When the Fellowships in Lorien, my sister always says loudly(in our house) "they've all got blue eyes". I think it might have something to do with the lighting of Lorien.But here's something which I think fits here <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> In the scene before the battle of Helm's Deep when Legolas is arguing with Aragorn, his eyes are brown, rather than blue. [In the book, elves' eyes turn brown when they are distressed. Since they are about to fight, it would make sense that Legolas' eyes are brown.] <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> I read this and thought 'what! I don't remember reading that anywhere!' Does anyone know where this comes from? Personally I think Orli forgot his contacts.

Yavanna Kementari · 04-03-2003, 10:22 PM

The only eye color I know for sure is that Viggo actually has very beautiful eyes, Its almost a blue grey ( gorgeous) and the Numenoreans are described by thier grey eyes. As for Elves some times the context of 'fair' means light hair and light eyes. I hope this helps you. Oh yes one more thing.I love Sean Beans green eyes, cause I have green eyes too!! thanks for the EYE CANDY!!It was SWEEEET!!!! -(~<~> Yavanna
