Simpsons Cast

An LOTR/Simpsons Crossover casting..

Frodo Lisa 
Sorry about the change of sex but she's the only personality who fits.

Sam Bart
'Of Taco's and Blue Squishy'

Pippin Millhouse
Dancing on the tables at the Prancing Pony

Merry Martin Prince
My logic is he's the intellectual to Millhouse's mad extrovert. He studied those maps in Rivendell.

Gandalf Homer
At the Bridge of Khazad-dum, as the Balrogs thong wraps round his knee and he is pulled into the abyss "D'oh".

Aragorn Troy McClure
"You may have seen me in such other fantasy epics as"

Gimli Nelson Munce
Hewing heads at Helms Deep "Hah Hah"

Legolas Principle Skinner 
In a set of Spock ears maybe? Or not!

Elrond Barney Gumble
"I wash the Herald of Gal-gilad and marshed with hish hosht. I wash at the Bottle of , bottle? Anyone godda another bottle"

Galadriel Marge
"I will remain Marge, and stay in the kitchen."

Denethor Chief Wiggum
"Heh! It's hot! Heh! Heh! Will someone help me out here! Heh!

Saruman Mr Burns
"A new power is rising, atomic power" 

Grima Waylon Smithers
"Mercy Mr Burns , do not send your poor Waylon away"

Fatty Bolger Ralph Wiggum
Perfect casting, doing wiggle puppy as the nazgul arrive in Crickhollow



Ghan-Buri-Ghan Groundskeeper Willie
"Git oot ah mah foorest, yah bunch o' yella haired, pony pricking, sassenachs!"

Or in the event of a Silmarillion/Simpsons crossover movie

Hurin Apu Nahasahpeenapetalon
At Unnumbered Tears, "Aure Entuluva", has an entirely different feel, "Day shall, Come Again!"

Muppets in LOTR - Posted by Lori on ringbearer.org

Combining my own mad thoughts with the recent brilliant suggestions at aft and vantagenet, I have created the casting list for lotr, using Henson’s muppets. Thanks to those who originally suggested them. Comments/suggestions welcome.

Frodo: Bert [I also considered Kermit as Frodo and Fozzie as Sam]
Sam: Ernie
Pippin: Elmo 
Merry: Zoe [I know, Zoe is a girl! better suggestions??]
Gimli: Rowlf the Dog 
Legolas: Scooter (Scooter is not a very good choice, I know...I need suggestions!!!)
Aragorn: Kermit the Frog
Arwen: Prairie Dawn 
Eowyn: Miss Piggy ["Take that Nazgul HIIiiii-yah!"]
Denethor: Crazy Harry "Crazy Harry plays with fire!" (not to be confused with Herry Monster!!)
Hobbits at birthday party: Fraggles (or Fraggles could play the elves at Rivendell) 
Gandalf: Oscar (Outside of Moria)G: "If you'll all shut up and get lost for a few minutes,
maybe I might just figure out how to open this door. Now SCRAM!"
[Gandalf disappears into his trash can. Over the next few minutes, various items come flying out of 
the can and accumulate around it:
old newspaper, Thrain's map, old soda can, Glamdring, empty pipeweed pouch,"Quenta Silmarillion",
oily rags, clearly labeled script for the movie, technical manual for the Rings of Power...]
Balrog: Sweetums (You know, the really big monster, played "Jack" in the Muppet Movie)
Treebeard: Dr. Teeth [Other ents would be played by the remaining members
of the Electric Mayhem band.]
Galadriel: Big Bird [Instead of asking for a lock of hair, Gimli will ask for a feather]
Boromir: Cookie Monster [Boromir: "Frodo, won't you just let me borrow your cookie?"
Frodo: "No!"
B: "Obstinate fool! That cookie should be mine! Give it to me!!!"]
Butterbur: Swedish Chef 
Bombadil: Gonzo ["So what exactly is Tom Bombadil/Gonzo, anyway?
"He's a little like a turkey.""A little, but not much."]
Goldberry: Camila [Gonzo's chicken-friend]
Oliphaunt: Snuffleumpiguser...Snufalumpaguser...Snuffy - oh you know who I mean 
9 Nazgul: the rats (Rizzo the rat = Nazgul king)
[another possibility would be for the Nazgul to be played by Gonzo's chickens,with Camila as the King.
Cut Bombadil]
Sauron: The Count (Sauron: "NINE rings for mortal men doomed to die [thunder and lightning],
ha-ha-hahahaha
Mouth of S.: Uhm Dark Lord, Sir? The Nazgul King hasjust been slain in 
battle
Sauron: What? Damn!!! EIGHT rings for mortal men...]
Gollum: Animal "Prech-ous! PRECS-US!! PRECS-US! PRECS-US!"
Elrond: Grover 
Gwaihir: Sam the Eagle, of course 
Theoden: I don't know. Maybe Dr. Bunsen Honeydew, with Beaker as Grima? 
Or Bobo the Bear? 
Saruman: Ack! I don't know. Who's left? Fozzie? Waldorf or Statler(those 2 old grumpy guys)?


Casting - Posted by d00d on ringbearer.org


Maybe Macauly Culkin could play Sauron?
How about we see Jean-Claude Van Damme as Frodo and Arnold Schwarzaneggar as Sam?
Maybe Patrick Duffy for the role of Aragorn?
Bill Clinton as Gollum?

Disney's LOTR Cast - Posted by Kal on ringbearer.org


If Disney was to make an all-animal cartoon of LotR, what kinds of animals would be used for the different characters? (Am I bored? How did you guess?)

Hobbits : koalas
Gandalf : eagle (with balrog wings apparently, otherwise he could have escaped from Orthanc without help)
Saruman : vulture
Strider : wolf
Boromir : bear
Legolas : deer
Orcs : gorillas
Gollum : gibbon

OK. I give up. You continue.

Alternate Casting Thoughts... - Posted by Maglor on ringbearer.org


Here are some alternate casting ideas:
Glorfindel - Patrick Rafter (tennis, w/dye job)
           - Steve Finley (baseball)
           - Lars from Metallica (he'd shave for it)
Denethor - Patrick Stewart (not all of these are off the wall)
         - Clint Eastwood
         - Rosie o'Donnell 
        (as Queen Denethor...alrightI just want to see her burn)
Anborn the Ranger - Bruce Campbell
Elrond - Robert Redford (still a twinkle in his eye)
Boromir - Jose Canseco (not doing anything now)
        - John Elway (ditto)
        - that Matchbox 20 guy
Legolas - Derek Jeter (would be great)
        - Daniel Day Lewis
Pippin  - digitize Fred Savage from Wonder Years
Gimli   - ME 
Mouth of Sauron - Chris Rock
Orthanc Palantir - Sinead O'Conner
