Hey, don't say Ugh! Don't get mad, get Glad!
Er...sorry.

You were right the first time, Eruwen, it was Miranda Otto. No "ugh", though. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Quote on!

I knew picking those ones that I never guess would pay off eventually. Oh, and sorry about the "Ugh". My friend got me really fistrated and I guess it got worse when I was looking at this thread. Anyway, ok...here's the next quote...

Quote:
He's a man that is very easy to respect.
Ok guess who it is, and I'll tell you now I am excited because this might not be the easiest quote. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

Nope, sorry, oh and another thing I forgot to mention. You don't have to say who it's talking about if you don't want to. I'll tell you that at the end, for it gives no hints towards the quote anyway. Just thought I'd share that.

Not him either. Lol. This is gonna take a while...I can already see it. Don't you just love when people find quotes like that? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

EDIT: Oh, and just so people don't have to keep switching from page to page to look at the quote, here is is again...

No, and since many guesses have already been given with no luck...I shall give a few hints. Hmm...let's see what I can come up with.

1. The quote is done by a male. {Don't that help? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]}

2. The guy is talking about his own character in the movie.

3. This person is not often guessed, nor used in quotes, nor spoken of in this topic really. I just happened to come across an interview with him and decided he would be a good choice.


Ok, take those and keep on guessing everyone! I hope they help.

Sean Bean?

If I got this correct (which I doubt I did), just go on without me. I am leaving tomorrow for Comic-Con in San Diego. I am going to be gone for 2 weeks, and I don't want this thread to go idle.

Okay, this is a rather long quote, from a rather obscure interview. Good luck!
Quote:
You don't just work for Peter, you also work for Fran (Frances Walsh). Peter might have one idea and Fran might have another, and somewhere in the middle is what you need to do. I think Peter was happy with my first (shots), but I don't think Fran was, and Fran scared me more then Peter did.

Nobody has it yet. why do people always guess the hobbit actors first? [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] I think it's the saying that the actor was scared of Fran that does it. Somehow it just seems like the hobbits are more vulnerable.

Nooooo.... I can see what you mean, Eruwen. This is fun. I think I'll give you all a hint. The actor who said this is male, and his character is rather, um, odd.

Ian McKellen? It sounds like him...kinda. Oh, did I spell his name wrong? It looks wrong to me, but I'm not sure and this is strange cause I have been spelling his name forever.

Mmm...I don't think it's wrong, Eruwen. The spelling, anywhoo. That's not the person who said the quote, however.

Oh, Samwise, you almost got me...for a sec there. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Oh well, my next guess is Christopher Lee. I don't know, it just doesn't sound like a really young person, like the Hobbits, who would have said it.

Well, no one has it, yet. The person who spoke this quote was saying this in a reference to a movie they had previously done.
I will not be on again until possibly late tomorrow, 'cause at my house we are SWAMPED with company, so keep guessing and I will be back on ASAP.
