>`And what gift would a Dwarf ask of the Elves? ' said Galadriel turning to Gimli.
>`None, Lady,' answered Gimli. `It is enough for me to have seen the Lady of the Galadhrim, and to have heard her gentle words.'
>`Hear all ye Elves! ' she cried to those about her. `Let none say again that Dwarves are grasping and ungracious! Yet surely, Gimli son of Glóin, you desire something that I could give? Name it, I bid you! You shall not be the only guest without a gift.'
>`There is nothing, Lady Galadriel,' said Gimli, bowing low and stammering.
>`Nothing, unless it might be – unless it is permitted to ask, nay, to name a single strand of your hair, which surpasses the gold of the earth as the stars surpass the gems of the mine. I do not ask for such a gift. But you commanded me to name my desire.'
>The Elves stirred and murmured with astonishment, and Celeborn gazed at the Dwarf in wonder, but the Lady smiled. 'It is said that the skill of the Dwarves is in their hands rather than in their tongues ' she said; `yet that is not true of Gimli. For none have ever made to me a request so bold and yet so courteous. And how shall I refuse, since I commanded him to speak? But tell me, what would you do with such a gift? '
>`Treasure it, Lady,' he answered, `in memory of your words to me at our first meeting. And if ever I return to the smithies of my home, it shall be set in imperishable crystal to be an heirloom of my house, and a pledge of good will between the Mountain and the Wood until the end of days.'
>Then the Lady unbraided one of her long tresses, and cut off three golden hairs, and laid them in Gimli's hand. `These words shall go with the gift,' she said. `I do not foretell, for all foretelling is now vain: on the one hand lies darkness, and on the other only hope. But if hope should not fail, then I say to you, Gimli son of Glóin, that your hands shall flow with gold, and yet over you gold shall have no dominion.

I felt this guys death far more than I did David Bowies, who died around the same time. Which is odd because I love David Bowie's music and I don't even really like the harry potter movies. Alan Rickman is kino casting.

Literally perfect. The man IS Aragorn, at least as far as the movie version goes.

>>80683542
This. The most perfect casting in the history of cinema.

>>80683798

That's all Jackson. The director is the one who makes those decisions, not the actor.

Almost everyone was perfect in LOTR.

But for me, the ones that truly transcended their roles were Ian McKellen as Gandalf, Sean Bean as Boromir, John Noble as Denethor and Brad Dourif as Grima.
I also need to mention Bernard Hill. Theoden has a special place in my heart.

>>80683438
ooh that's aggravatin

I have to agree that Galadrien was perfectly cast as her riverdancing just blew my mind

>>80691667
Denethor was a bit too cartoony for my taste, I couldn't really see the once noble leader who had fallen into a bad state. That didn't come through imo.

>>80693293
the actor did a fantastic job portraying bitterness, desperation, paranoia and insanity in every gesture and expression, but you are right about the lack of past nobility.

>>80693437
For sure. Gotta give credit where credit is due. It does give some variety to the characters too since if he wasn't played like that then all kingly figures would be the noble type.

GOAT castings/The role can only have been done this well by this actor:

> Joe Pesci as Tommy DeVito
> Andy Serkis as Gollum
> James Earl Jones as Darth Vader
> Eli Wallach as Tuco
> Alan Rickman as Severus Snape
> Harrison Ford as Han Solo (Only in ANH and ESB)
> Humphrey Bogart as Rick Blaine

Others-could-have-done-it-however-these-were perfect-core:

> Charlize Theron as Aileen Wuornos
> Heath Ledger as the Joker
> Black kid as Lil Z in City of God
> Sir Ian McKellen as Gandalf
> Hugh Jackman as Logan
> Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter

> Literally every single role in 12 Angry Men

>>80694710
lol i actually agree on every single one here.

>>80694710
I agree that nobody else could have made Gollum, Tuco or Tommy work.

James Gandolfini as Tony Soprano.

Holy shit that's so true tho, ty anon, didnt expect these

>>80694710
Nice, would add Bruce Willis - Die Hard and JK Simmons - J. Jonah Jameson.

>>80691667
Brad Dourif is the best part of anything he's in. Just runs circular acting clinics around everyone else

>>80694710
jack bauer as jack bauer

>>80691667
one of my favourite lines is when jackson took the descriptions of what eowyn felt as she suffered caring for theoden in ROTK.. and have grima say it directly to her face, was spooky.
