Here's a pic of Viggo with the broken tooth.

😘 he could've passed for the mouth of sauron 😆

LOL..

Christopher Lee (Saruman) knew J.R.R. Tolkien personally. He's read The Lord of the Rings trilogy every year since it was published. If I remember quite correctly, he also had a blessing from Tolkien to play Gandalf if ever a movie will be made.

um...the majority of the orcs at the Helms Deep scene were Maori warriors.

Oh ok thanks! 😄 But the "blessing to be Gandalf" stuff, wasn't it in the FOTR commentary though? I believe PJ was the one who said that, I'm not sure, but really cool though. Meeting one if not the best author of all time personally. 😍 😄

PJ and Fran Walsh's children are in all three movies....

Billy and Katie Jackson are credited as:
FOTR: Cute Hobbit Children
TTT: Cute Rohan Children
ROTK: Cute Gondor Children

And by the way they are adorable!!!

The films hold the record for the films with the most movie mistakes...EVER!

(That's an official record too!)

Most of the Lord Of The Rings facts you read here come from the special features on the DVDs.

Elijah Wood's sister, Hannah, has a cameo in the TTT:EE whilst int eh caves at HElms Deep.

Stuart Townsend was origanally cast as Aragorn and actually filmed a few scenes, but was fired because:

*he was too young for the part

or

*creative differances in the film

You take your pick, if you ask PJ he says that it is the age thing, although it has been said that it was becuase him and PJ didn't get along.... interestin... 😍 PJ 😍

Frodo Baggins has the same initials as meeeee!

(Ok, not really a fact, but I'm bored and can't think of any more!)

TH mine are from my own knowlege

Alright, alright, no need to get so smug!

lol 😄

it worked for angus deayton

*tisk* *tsik* you left me!

I read or heard somewhere that the orcs/urik-hai in the TT at Helms Deep were fisherman from New Zealand randomly asked to do it

Christopher Lee is the only cast/crew member ever to have met Tokien,

erm....
