Re: Which actors don't you like in their roles

[philstar22]

Almost the entire Hobbit cast. Martin Freeman can stay, though, as can Cate Blanchett and Ian McKellan and Christopher Lee in both trilogies.

Elrond needs to be recast for both Hobbit and LOTR, though I'm honestly not sure with. Just, someone younger and more elvish and more happy. Frodo needs to be recast as someone older since he's supposed to be the same age Bilbo was in the Hobbit.

Alan Howard was actually fine as the voice of Sauron, but they needed someone who could do a consistently scary physical body. The stupid flaming eye needs to go.

Denethor I'd probably recast just because John Noble gave off too much of an evil vibe. It went too far and wasn't the Denethor of the book who was much more nuanced.

I mostly agree with you, with a few caveats. The thing with Frodo is that he's the same age as Bilbo was in the hobbit, but still looks like he's barely of age. Especially at the time the movies were made, it's easier to find a younger actor that can act older than a middle-aged actor who looks 25. Honestly, I'd probably have kept Elijah Wood, but directed him slightly differently.

I agree that the flaming eye got a little ridiculous. I disagree that we needed to see scary physical body Sauron. I'd have kept him mostly to the shadows and only hinted at what he looked like beyond creepy and person-shaped.
