Re: Mental Casts

[(Anonymous)]

I think that's part of the problem. Everyone imagines they must be models but these are also beings who can kill a werewolf with their bare hands. They have to be strong and tall and lithe and beautiful and otherworldly. It's the last one that means the most to me and is the hardest to capture.

I think Lee Pace did as good a job as a human is likely to do (if I couldn't see his 5 o'clock shadow all the time and he'd actually let them mess with his eyebrows). Despite the fact that he was channeling Thingol and not Thranduil, he has the height, authority, and good looks for an elven king. I just didn't get a sense of the "alien" from him. He just seemed like a douchy human.

That's kind of the point, though. Elves look like models but are physically strong and badass and wise and otherworldly. It is pretty hard to capture that look. And physically I think (some) models probably come closest. Not acting wise, though. I don't think they could pull it off.

Lee Pace was close looks-wise. Even though he wasn't really Thranduil-like and not quite otherworldly enough. I'd also say Cate Blanchett comes as close as a human possibly could. I don't think anyone could really pull off elves, but I'm willing to accept ones that come close.
