Hehe. You have no idea the delicious images this conjures up. Of course, he's also starring as Duilin in "I Do Not Change" but I'm more than willing to share. 
It is so hard to find the sort of picture I wanted, but here's my Thranduil - David Coverdale, the lead singer of Whitesnake (circa 1987.)
Edited: Well, &^%$. Apparently it's impossible.

Hmm, Rupert Everett is definitely an Elf. In fact, that's who I've got in my head as Thranduil.
I'll look for a picture.

Sigh.
I realize Thranduil supposedly had blonde hair. I'm not sure how Rupert would look with blonde hair. |

The thought of the deliciously accented voices of Orlando Bloom and Rupert Everett in the same movie would be too much for my little brain to handle. Sheesh, I would be stuck to the seat at the movie theater like a piece of old gum.
And dang I love that picture of Rupert you found Roisin. Unless my eyes deceive me, I think it is from the movie - An Ideal Husband. Which is one of my fav movies by him. Good job!!! 
I think Rupert would look good with blond hair. Just think about how well dark haired, dark eyed Orlando turned out as a blond Elf. It most likely has something to do with having fabulous cheekbones. |

I see you are similarly afflicted by Johnny Deppitis. One Depp is delicious, two Depps are divine. 
And what an 80's flashback to Dave Coverdale. I like that choice for King Thranduil. Nothing like all night wild parties in the caves of Mirkwood |

If you're trying to show a picture, Ellbee, you need to use the button Img above. The pic itself doesn't upload to the forum (sorry, but we don't have that kind of server space at our disposal), so it has to be sitting somewhere else, available online. What you put between the Img tags is basically the address (URL) where the pic can be found.
Hope that helps.
do.

I actually had a link before, but the picture showed up as a red x. Let's see if this works a little better.
Dagnabbit! Okay, one more time:

Mmmm... exactly as I've always pictured them, those Mirkwood Party Elves.

After seeing FOTR a debate started among my friends about Galadriel. Even knowing CB was cast we'd expected someone older, more venerable, but equally ethereally beautiful. After a lot of names we finally hit on Catherine Deneuve as our ideal casting. No complaints, though.
I also think Christian Bale has that long face, pointy ear look, but sinister, wonderfully sinister.
(I, too, couldn't figure out that picture thing) |

They have added a block, stopping people from "cross-linking". So, unless you type the URL in directly or go via their site, it won't let you see the picture. Designed to stop people free-loading off their servers without suffering the advertising from their site - which is fair enough.
Tripod did the same thing with sindohte's avatar (but we moved it to stop this happenning - Tripod couteracted by including their own advertising! ) |

| I have him depicted as an elf for my story Maedhros. For some reason, I see him as Elladan. For those not in the know, Eric CLose is in Without a Trace. |

I think Goldie Hawn is an Elf in that she doesn't appear to physically age. Either that or she's sold her soul to Satan. 
BTW, I think Gwyneth Paltrow would be a shoe in for Legolas' long lost mother.

Robbie,
Thanks for moving my beautiful avatar away from those wicked Tripod people. What is the point of having webspace if you can't use it as you please?

| I can definitely see Johnny Depp as the twins. He's one half of the reason I'm sooo looking forward to " Pirates of the Carribean". I love David Coverdale ( Love Whitesnake! Lord, my age is definitely showing), and I can see him as Thranduil but I can also see Alexander Gudunov, or could if he was still among the living, as my second favorite elf. Alas, I have not been able to find a picture of him anywhere! |

This guy who played Methos on Highlander is definitely an elf. Though I've never been able to make up my mind who I think she should play. Because of his name, I've always imagined Maedhros to look like him. LOL.
