So did Aragorn just like possess Viggo Mortensen while he was filming Lord of the Rings or what because from what I've heard Viggo literally just is his character to the point where I'm beginning to wonder where Aragorn ends and Viggo begins

From Stephen Colbert's LotR zoom reunion convos in 2021. I cut together the bits with Viggo & Orlando. Part one.

Isn't it amazing that Viggo and Orlando never participated in a single interview together, before these digital reunions took place in 2020 and 2021? It took 20 years before it happened! Like Orlando keeps saying, it blows my mind. Almost makes me suspect it was purposely avoided...

So, this video is such a treasure for someone like me. I'm not sure there's that much to glean from it, but I'm damned if I'm not going to try my best anyway.

One thing Viggo & Orlando have in common is that they both seem to be listening so very intently to everything being said. Orlando is constantly reflecting everything he's thinking by smiling and laughing all the time. And so is Viggo, laughing and commenting. Like it's just the two of them talking.

Of course, in my mind, Viggo is listening particularly rapt to Orlando's stories. I can't quite get over the way he looks at Orlando when he O is speaking, even biting his lip at one point, like he can't quite school his face. And watching O with such warmth. There is a lot of love here, not matter what kind.

Viggo is such a good storyteller. I know they've all told these stories many times over the years, but it's still very entertaining. I get the feeling that Viggo is that person who everyone listens to, that the room goes quiet when he is speaking. And I get the feeling that Orlando can be very entertaining too, just by the sheer happy energy he seems to exude. He's so wonderfully animated.

The way Viggo describes Aragorn "this guy, he's in the woods, long legs" is hilarious. Even now, it's intriguing to think how he nearly never went to NZ. How different things would have been.

And I can clearly see Viggo and Orlando (and the hobbits!) in a bar in Wellington, dancing around, drunk, carefree and happy. Those were indeed the days. That happy laugh between them as Orlando talks about it is beautiful. I'm feeling quite sentimental. I bet they are too.

DO YOU KNOW THIS CHARACTER?

Feelin’ very lucky to have had the opportunity to commission this lovely piece from an artist that I rather admire the skills of. I knew from the second this card dropped that I had to bring the dream to life in beautiful detail to fully appreciate this unique look for Jim!
