Whose writing is that? I don’t think it’s Viggos ’cause it’s different to the one he did of Orli. What does it
say? I can read most of the first three lines
he looks like hes cowering
That’s JRD’s scale double….JRD ain’t that skinny
yup SD
whoa…dwarf in half costume
isnt that bret
out of this pic i get that hes fiered up, defensive, sort of bold and warrior type
yeah, thats not John, its the karate guy….. his scale double
Yeah, that is Bret I think.. I love his arms, lol.. So.. skinny, I guess, but still strong almost. Poor boy.
What is he – like a 1000 years old???????? 😛
yeah, this is the 4’9 and a half scale double for john.
Big head, little arms!
It is a quote from Tolkien…I can tell you that much. It has to do with Gimli son of Gloin.
I bet Viggo did write that. just because the hand changed a lil doesn’t mean anything. I change mine a lot
He looks like a goblin to me.
That’s not John Rhys Davies, it’s his scale double, people!
Good and ill have not changed since yesteryear, nor are they one thing among Elves and Dwarves and another
amongmen. It is a man’s part to discern them as quick in the Golden Wood as in his own house.” Son of Gloin
i think thats gimili’s scale double , brett
That is an incredible effect with the lighting. Was it done during development or a timed exposure?
Brent…JRD’s stunt-double
weird looking…
the light is so… fiery… wonder how he got that effect??… probably during development.
It’s ‘Brett’, and yeah, that’s definitely not JRD.
Cool lighting… wish I was clever enough to do something like this! I can’t decide whether I like it or not
It’s definately different!
looks disturbing, but still good
Brett!
he had problems with his knees so it wuz hard for him to do some stunts
It’s a little strange, but I like the lighting!
is his head on fire
eeeeewwwww, gimli in a sleeveless top!!! vsd flashback!!!
The writing says “Good and ill have not changed since yesteryear; nor are they one thing among Elves and…
…Dwarves and another among Men. It is a man’s part to discern them, as much in the Golden Wood as in his…
…own house.” TTT, Chapter II: Riders of Rohan. I just read it last night.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
