I don't know.  But I have been told I look like him and I don't really know if I think it was a compliment.

Not sure how he will fit into the part. I read the book 3 times and still trying to picture him ....also trying to think of who my choice would have been. Time will tell ~ just hope the movie does the book justice when it opens next month.

I pictured Ian Holm, who played Bilbo Baggins in the Lord of the Rings trilogy. \nWell I was close since they chose Ian McKellen who was in LOTR as well.

My father is a geneologist. He went to scandinavia for info my mom's family. The written record splits when you go far enough back. On one side it concludes with a king Olaf I believe. On the other side the king was kidnapped by Odin for seeking to be a God. Also on this side are references to the king fathering the twins Frey/Freya.

I guess I would have to know what a gix or avantar is first....lemme see....gix, wasnt that a character in Lord of the Rings? Avantar? I believe that was a car name in the seventies....no, that was Avanti!

First of all a couple of corrections:\n\n1) Your name would NOT be "Ron Ilan".  That is nothing more than a transliteration of the sounds, and the meaning is not even remotely related to the meaning of your given name.\n\n2) The "my-hebrew names" site Nancy suggested is nice, and many of its suggested equivalents are good or reasonably close\n(do note though, that one of the links is to "richard" rather than "ronald".  Try instead:http://www.my-hebrew-name.com/names.cgi?name=ronald&gender=b&x=0&y=0)\n\n-----------------------------\nAt any rate, I think you can do a bit better\n\nBegin by looking at the origins of your name:\n\n"Ronald" (equivalent to "Reginald", "Reynold" and German "Reinhold") goes back to a common two-part type ["dithematic"] of Anglo-Saxon/Germanic name; this particular form is Scottish, based on an original Old Norse: \n--Regin, meaning "the gods" [a collective name]**  +  Vald [appears in other names as wald/walt, (h)old, ald, cf. Russian vlad] meaning "rule, exercise (of) power/authority" or "ruler"\n**'literally' the word means "decreeing powers".  Sometimes you will see regin rendered as "advice" or "decree";  that is indeed the meaning of the ROOT-word;  but in NAMES the plural of this word is used to refer to the gods.\nhttp://www.aboutnames.ch/HMR.htm\nhttp://www.etymonline.com/index.php?search=ronald\n\nCompare this note:\n"RAGHNALL is the Celtic form of the common Scandinavian name ROGNVALDR, (rögn, a collective name for the Gods, is a frequent commencement of proper names, and valdr, 'ruler,' is equally common as an ending.)"\nhttp://www.isle-of-man.com/manxnotebook/manxnb/v10p053.htm\n\nWhen you're looking for an "equivalent" in another language it may be useful to note that this is specifically a "warrior name" (as are many such names that include supernatural beings -- regin, god, and aelf)\nhttp://www.helsinki.fi/historia/glossa/magaz2_04.html\n\nThe combination of the two root words conveys the notion that this person somehow possesses or displays "divine rule/power" \n\n\n"Allen" -- the meaning is debated. I believe the strongest suggestion is "rock", though "handsome" is a strong second.\nhttp://www.aboutnames.ch/HMA.htm#gnAlan\n\n\n--------------------------------\nEquivalents\n\nFor "RONALD"\n in Hebrew try one of these:\n* the warrior-name "Gabriel" [Gavriel],  meaning "Mighty man of God"\n(Yes this is the angel's name.  Angels aften appear as warriors in the Hebrew Bible and other Hebrew literature --as do Gabriel and Michael-- so it is not surprising that they are given this type of name)  \n* Ezekiel [more literally Yechezqel], meaning "God has strengthened"\n* Elimelech  - "God is king"  OR Elishaphat  - "God judges/rules"\n\n(for Aramaic, in this case you could use the Hebrew names just listed without much difficulty)\n\nNote that the differences between languages and cultures and their beliefs, complicates finding "equivalents".   For instance, HOW they both form and use names can make finding a precise equivalent more difficult.  In this case, note that Hebrew does not form names with divine elements in quite the same way as the Germanic languages.  Rather than a [dithematic] compound word, Hebrew typically it uses a "sentence name", and the name is a confessional statement about GOD's actions & character.    Also, as noted above, "rogn" is a COLLECTIVE name for "the gods".   But in Hebrew belief their is only ONE true God, and you would not expect a plural "gods" in Hebrew names.\n\nFor "ALLEN"\n  for the meaning "rock" there are a few possibilities:\n   * Hebrew "Eben",  Aramaic "Abna"

I thought the Balrog was neat. He wasn't that bad compared to some of the other stuff in LOTR. I think he's cool, though. Very nice whip, and he's all firey.

The Magic Head?  Are you talking about the giant Math, in the Mabinogion, whose head kept talking even after it was cut off?  I don't know what you mean otherwise.  And Excalibur was Arthur's sword, which was magical, and marked him out as the King of the Britons.  He had to return it to the Lady of the Lake at his last battle.  As far as I know, there is no real similarity between these stories, but I might not have the right ones.

Sauroman, or Sauron?  Sauroman is the white wizard guy with the seeing stone, and Sauron is the big evil guy that made the ring and got his hand lopped off.  the latter has the big red eye.  i think it's just sopposed to be like his spirit or something.

Well, they *are* planning a Warcraft movie - it'll be a few years, and no idea what the topic will be yet, but it's supposedly in the works.\n\nThat said, unless they get Peter Jackson, LotR probably will still be the better movie.

Lord of the Rings: the Two Towers!!! I love that movie!! I love the Lord the Rings!!! Eomer says that to Legolas, Aragorn, and Gimli when they are trying to find Merry and Pippin.

I am a lord of the rings fan too. I'm not really sure that they should make the hobbit into a movie. \nAlthough it would give background info the the three movies already out, having said that it'd probably defeat the purpose of many of the scenes put into the LOTR films
