Radagast in all three films, slips in Sylvester McCoy
|
Can't Post
|
|
In this interview of the actors on the AirNZ Hobbit plane, Mr. Campbell interviews McCoy. At 3:55 into it,
Campbell: What's it like? Is it something you feel very proud of?
McCoy: Proud isn't the word! Proud, it's just ...it's awesome! No Honestly! I mean it really is. I mean...in three of them! I mean, for years you wait for a Hollywood film to come along and then, like London buses, three come along at the same time. It's great!
http://www.3news.co.nz/.../278304/Default.aspx
I only bring it up because I have a vague memory of speculation here somewhere (couldn't find it) that maybe Radagast wouldn't survive film 1. I guess he's safe - at least until the end of #3.

if the moth talked. Then McCoy would get voiceover credit.
Frito groaned. "I wish I had never been born," he said.
"Do not say that, dear Frito," cried Orlon. "It was a happy minute for us all when you were born."

and seeing Sylvester McCoy's obvious enthusiasm in playing Radagast, I'm even happier that Radagast will be in all three films! (He didn't mention zombies or moths, unfortunately; however he did mention voice-over work. However he qualified it with saying it was to clean up some dialogue. Hmm....)

I can't remember what it's called? They had to so it a lot for the LOTR trilogy, since the studios were not sound proofed.

I'm in between tasks and came up for a breather.
I'm in the middle of archiving images/software/data from my collection of several obsolete, but still functional, computers onto my RAID server for backup. I want to clear up space the old junk is occupying and take it all to the next computer recycle day this spring. One of them is a 50 Mhz DOS computer. Really. ;) I can run all that stuff on DOS Box now if I have to. The first thing I got going is Magic Carpet 2. Awesome DOS game.

Every main character who dies reappears in flashbacks

So his third film scene could easily be a flashback.
I kind of doubt it though, you guys are probably right, that he doesn't die. We'll see...

please let him come back as the moth, not the zombie.
But why couldn't he come back as Radagast the White? Or has this been discussed?

I was meant to be camping out on the red carpet today, but the excitement has gotten to be too much, and the bod said, "STAY HOME on the sofa watching live coverage on TV". (It really did shout.) Hence the trawling of oldish Hobbit-related news reports and videos I've missed...and speculation about zombie wizards.

This zany "Radagast has to die" has got me giggling.

It's so obvious that Radagast takes a sip of water while traveling through Fangorn and transmutes into Treebeard. I mean, really, c'mon people get with it.
-Tim came by. Tim! If you had heard only a quarter of what I have heard about him, and I have only heard very little of all there is to hear, you would be prepared for any sort of remarkable tale.

When’s the last time you looked at a luna moth? Yep, that’s right: our favorite brownie is destined to turn over a new leaf and return as . . . Radagast the Green!
…all eyes looked upon the ring; for he held it now aloft, and the green jewels gleamed there that the Noldor had devised in Valinor. For this ring was like to twin serpents, whose eyes were emeralds, and their heads met beneath a crown of golden flowers, that the one upheld and the other devoured; that was the badge of Finarfin and his house.The Silmarillion, pp 150-151 while Felagund laughs beneath the treesin Valinor and comes no more

But I do like the idea of him just fading into history.

And thanks. I made up most of that, but my brother is the one who compared Raddy to Santa in the first place. My brother is very fun. It was really funny when, after he heared about the bunny sled, he had me picture Radagast charging down the hill on his sled at Helm's Deep with Shore's epic music in the background. Really, just picture that right now!
Then the orcs are like, "What the?"
