I loved the "when will you wear wigs" prank so much, I included a subtle homage to it in my own series of books. 💪😎✌️ I'll be shocked if anyone ever finds precisely where it is, though.
"Nobody here has heard this story" as if we haven't all seen all of the Hobbits' panels! Anyway was great to hear it again. Billy tells it so well too.
I'm really sad I couldn't go due to cost. Elijah Wood as Frodo had meant a lot to me so it was unfortunate but I'm glad you posted this. I don't think I stopped laughing 😂
Thank you so much for posting this. My family got covid the week of FanX and had to stay home. While it’s just a small portion of FanX, it’s great to enjoy these panels.
The Fellowship actors is a form of Band of Brothers. 'We few, we happy few, we band of brothers. For he to day that sheds his blood with me, shall be my brother.' This is so endearing. The Lord of the Rings is the greatest trilogy in history. Some say it's "the Star Wars of our Generation" but they have it backwards to me. When those two laugh I feel like they're back at Isengard sitting on a field of victory "feasting and smoking!" "Who's going to be Orlando?" I died 😂
I was in the Q&A line for this panel, and they had a hard cut off line. The pre-prepared question I had in my mind was: “Are there any hidden details about your Lord of the Rings characters that have never been shared before that you can reveal now?” And, the volunteers had a hard cut off, so they cut off, and I was six people behind. The next day I get a photo with Elijah Wood, and I get to ask him my panel question, and he was stumped. His eyes narrowed a little, and he said. “I don’t know, so much has already been revealed. I honestly couldn’t tell you.” At FanX, celebrities charge for autographs and pictures and stuff, they request to come to FanX, and they walk away with a chunk of change. Luckily for me, I walk away with a free autograph from Dominic Mohnaghan the first night, never got to ask my panel question, but I thanked him for being a part of LOST, because it kept me grounded at a very, very bad time in my life.
Too bad that he couldn't answer your question, but at least you can be happy with the fact that you stumped one of the most talkative guys around! Probably not often he's been asked that
I got to meet those four nasty Hobbitses at FanX. Had them sign my Extended Edition box set. Right at the beginning of this video, they mention the wig thing. When I met Elijah, I asked him, "Do you wear wigs?" and he replied, "Sometimes I do." They were all really nice guys. Sean, especially, loves his fans.
Too bad Billy's not part of the MCU multiverse. As a Sliders fan, I bet he'd like it. I think Sliders may have been the second alternate universe show I ever watched, after the TMNT cartoon with dimention X and all that.
