I can not accept anyone other than Christian Bale as Feanor.

Picture Bale w/pointy ears. Depp strikes me as too soft for the role.

Jah, jah, he looks Fëanáro-ish enough. And who cares about ears.

I don't know about you, but this is not how I imagined Feanor:

Depp has played characters of all types. And he is a GOOD actor, and dammit, the guy is HOT!

Well, I agree that Depp is a good actor. Somehow, he just doesn't work for me as Feanor. I don't see that role as one that Depp could pull off believably.

Strider Luthien

Definately Uma Thurman as Luthien.

Oh, it's on, now. Let's not confuse "hot" with "exotic", and Uma is totally exotic, as was Luthien. I rest my case.

Hmmm.....I'll believe you (for now). I'll just go re-read the necessarily parts when I get home. I always thought Luthien was the hottest elf-chick on the planet, but hey.

Uma looks a little "machine-ish" to me, beautiful but brain dead?

WOW! I don't know who the guy is, but he sure has what I picture to be Feanaro's look!

Did we ever come up with someone for Thingol the popular? SGH, any suggestions?

Okay, as per Tolkien, "...the most beautiful of all the Children of Iluvatar". So there we go. Luthien was hot. The hottest chick on the planet. And respectfully, Uma Thurman isn't my idea of the hottest chick on the planet. For instance, her eyes are too big.

Well, we'll let it rest for now. How about Hugh Jackman as Beren?

Ooooh yeah....

Which is why I don't want him to play Fëanor. I really, really like Johnny Depp.

I like Andúril's choice.

Orlando Bloom as Celegorm... Nice.

Wow... getting distracted by pictures as I try to decide...

I have a bit of trouble picturing him as any Elf... though, when you look at the differences in the characters he played in, say, Chocolat and Pirates...

Gyaah. I don't know.

Just... not Fëanor.

Or Túrin...
