I just saw 13 Going On 30. Guess who was Jennifer Garner's boss! Andy Serkis! It was really strange actually seeing him on the screen instead of a CGI character. At one point he was dancing to Thriller by Michael Jackson (though I won't give everything away), which I found hilarious. Just thought that was an interesting tid-bit since I had heard absolutely nothing about him even being in the movie.

He was on Connan OBrien the other night, I didn't know, missed all but like last 30 seconds. Seems he was pushing a book he wrote but again, I missed the title. Anyone?
Cheers

I think it's called Gollum: How We Made Movie Magic... or something like that. I wonder if it's any good.

Yup, it's called something like that. I met the Andy at the London Con in February, he's a great guy.

Yep I met him in Manchester just before Easter when he was a book signing. He was really nice and signed some stuff for me and let me have a couple of pictures taken too.

Yep, he's great. At the London Comic Con in February, he did a talk with Bruce Hopkins (Gamling) and Thomas Bobbins (Deagol). There was an auction thingamijig and he presented it... in the voice of Gollum! Great stuff! Absolutely hilarious. I was in hysterics!

Haha! I can't believe he presented with the Gollum voice! That's hysterical! Watching 13 Going on 30, it was very strange to see him speaking in his normal voice.

Hmmm...I was under the impression that Deagol and Smeagol were both played by Andy...Yeah it's another scatter brained day for me! Laughing

Haha, if they were the same actor then that'd be an amazing bit of cinematography Wink.

Yup...I got myself mixed up somehow Crazy

I didn't really like the Smeagol/Deagol Scene...I definatly think The Prophesy was my favorite opening scene in the trilogy

Yeah, I have to agree with you. I don't know... I guess I just didn't really like the scene. By the way, your avatar is lovely (though I get dizzy watching it changes pictures).

Ah Jash, I can't remember what he was wearing.
Prophecy, you mean the prologue in FotR? It's quite well done.
The thing I remember the most is when Gil Galad's elves do the whoosh thing with their swords against the orcs. My dad said, when he saw it, that he thought it was quite funky.
