Kstar__2 Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 it's a balrog and he was cool, he looked really scary:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy867 Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 Ehhh. just hire a couple of NYC Firefighters, and the Balrog is extinguished:D But seriously, Gollum is Smeagol, and Smeagol is Trallad (or something like that.) I read that the name Smeagol isn't even his real name. And over 900 years, dont you think the cells that make up the bone structure would decay and become reformed because of the ring. Remember, Gandalf said it gave him unnatural long life. And because of that, his physical appearances is that of normal body decay once one comes to think about it.

Katarn07 Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 Really? In the book, I remember his name being Smeagol, and then the ring made him mad and he was then Gollom. Of course, he turns schitzephrenic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teutonicknight Posted January 18, 2003 Share Posted January 18, 2003 Originally posted by Boba Rhett "Maybe everyone's seen this picture but me and I'm just stuffing your box w/ more bloody rubbish - but I found an interesting picture of Smeagol over at American Cinematographer. I haven't read the article yet - don't know if they talk about this pic - but I'm speculating that it's from one of the flashback scenes that was cut out of TTT and being saved for TROTK. Part of Smeagol's transformation into Gollum. I've heard about the scene but haven't seen anything from it till now." Link I thought this was pretty cool and it's new to me. If it stops working, don't blame me. Whoa, great find! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khier Posted January 18, 2003 Share Posted January 18, 2003 Doesn't Andy Serkis sort of look like Mr. Bean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigTeddyPaul Posted January 18, 2003 Share Posted January 18, 2003 Originally posted by Katarn07 I was confused about the whole Gollom thing though, when I first saw LotR: FotR. I had no clue who he was. That little narration in the beginning, if I remember correctly, is a combo of what is said by Gandalf to Froto at Bilbo's house and the Council of Elrond (finished that chapter a few days ago). But they don't go in depth about Gollom/ Smeagol. I had to ask a AD&D friend of mine to explain. Practically anything you want to know about Gollum and his link in the movies must be read in The Hobbit. BigTeddyPaul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
