Frodo v's Elijah - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I remember waaaaaay back in the day when the very first teaser trailer came out for FotR. I eagerly downloaded from the net (legally, I might add) and watched it about a million times. It's the one that ended with the shot of the Fellowship cresting the mountain and walking along in single file. It was pretty easy to tell who were Gandalf, Legolas and Gimli, but the hobbits and the Men were a bit trickier. . .for about 1/5th of a second! I could immediately tell who each of them were.

Back then I had no idea of who Elijah Wood was, but somehow I could tell by looking at him that he was Frodo, so he must have been doing something right.

Off topic a bit -- I well remember how in that clip it was Aragorn that took my breath away. Right from that first glimpse of Viggo, I was sold.
