Nooo! He's neither. Besides, he's to well-known. It has to be someone that doesn't associate to earlier movies.

Tom Cruise can neither act fair, nor fell? What planet are you from? Tom Cruise can be wicked, he can be intense, he can be strong, he can be fiery. I think he's a great choice.

But alas, can he be tall?

Isn't Fëanor supposed to have long hair? Has Tom Cruise ever had very long hair? I can't imagine it. Well, I can, but it doesn't look very nice in my imagination.

Artanis · 08-17-2003, 05:00 AM

It's a matter of personal opinion. I'm unable to see TC as the fierce Fëanor. He just hasn't got 'it'.

Ñólendil · 08-17-2003, 08:51 PM

One doesn't need heighth and long hair to possess either in a movie. You can be made to appear over seven feet tall, and you can be given long hair.

Sheeana · 08-18-2003, 01:37 AM

Please tell me you're just being facetious.

Ñólendil · 08-19-2003, 03:30 AM

No, I'm being honest. Cruise is a great actor, and I think he could play a great Feanáro.

Sheeana · 08-19-2003, 05:01 AM

But... How can someone with a big nose and a mono-brow be fair of face?

Lefty Scaevola · 08-19-2003, 08:15 AM

That is like asking how Cate Blanchet can play one of the 3 most beutifel women in the history of Middle Earth.

Ñólendil · 08-22-2003, 09:47 PM

Sheesh. Thank goodness I didn't tell you who I thought would make a good Manwë.

***azalea*** · 08-22-2003, 10:48 PM

Who? Who? I'd like to know!

Artanis · 08-23-2003, 04:22 AM

Me too! Me too!

Lemme guess: John Travolta?

Ñólendil · 08-23-2003, 09:46 PM

Denzel Washington, if you must know. I have radical ideas, but I'm telling you, it'd work. Washington can get across the nobility and compassion of Manwë Súlimo, no problem. I can see him looking keenly down at Melkor, cast before his feet, and questioning him, and I can see him bursting into tears at the fiery words of Fëanáro, delivered by messenger. Go ahead, call me crazy.

***Sister Golden Hair*** · 08-23-2003, 11:17 PM

crazy!

***azalea*** · 08-24-2003, 03:07 PM

No, I can see it, although he seems young-looking to me.

Athelwinde · 09-17-2003, 02:37 PM

Morgoth= Bill Clinton
Ungoliant= Monika Lewinsky
Luthien= Jaylo
Beren= The guy Jaylo broke up with (what's his name?)
Eol= Fidel Castro (an isolated dude in an isolated place)

Too bad these people aren't actors!

Hehe. You made me laugh out loud. Okay, so it was more of a high-pitched giggly thing....

***azalea*** · 09-18-2003, 01:26 PM

I could see Alan Rickman in a good role -- maybe Turin? (How old was he supposed to be?)
