Wait do you actually not know?

I'm not mad I'm just actually impressed and happy to see a new perspective

that's jango fett on the left from star wars. the scientist dude in the middle from jurassic park. and karl "I'll bloody well blend in to whatever role I'm in and you won't know it's me*" urban on the right (eomer from lord of the rings)

*not as well as Gary Oldman though

In my defense, I only ever watched Star Wars movies and even then, my particular fav character was Darth Vader. I pretty much ignored the other folk. lol

It honestly took me a second to recognize Sam Neil, he looks so different from the last time I saw him in anything (which is ironic cause I recognized his voice instantly in the Rick and Morty episode he was in).

Didn't realize Billy Butcher is Eomer! So

I’ll bloody well blend in to whatever role I’m in and you won’t know it’s me

Yeah, you get a look at his imdb page and its mind blowing how nany different roles he's taken on. Hell, he played 4 or 5 different major characters in Hercules/Xena back in the day.

[–] Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone 2 points 2 days ago

The boys that's the one, good show

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 17 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Lord of the Rings and Merlin you mean, yeah?

🐎Yes, I went through 5 different franchise combinations before settling on this one.

[–] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Don't forget Event Horizon...

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 1 points 2 days ago

Perish the thought.

[–] angrystego@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Thanks for bringing up Merlin, the forgotten Hallmark gem.

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The first thing I ever saw Sam in, right when my sexuality was blossoming. (⁠。⁠◕⁠‿⁠◕⁠。⁠)

[–] angrystego@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Very formative experience, indeed.

[–] P1k1e@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Lord of the rings? Did Tumera Morrison play Sauron on some unaccredited roll? (Autocorrect HATES that name so much)

Karl made the post so...yes, dbout he was suggesting he was having dinner with himself

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Huh? Sorry, I don't follow.

I was replying to OP's post title, suggesting Merlin and LotR as a crossover.

[–] P1k1e@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

Ah, ok I assumed you meant Carl Urbans post (the picture)

Was being nitpicky. You just enjoy your memes and Lemmy time. I'ma go be a bother elsewhere

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 days ago

Tumeric Morrisey.

[–] Kimjongtooill@sh.itjust.works 8 points 4 days ago

Why do they look like they are a part of the "Rogansphere" from an alternate universe?

[–] illi@piefed.social 8 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Someone help me with the guy on the left. I just can't place him.

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 24 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (3 children)

Temuera Morrison:

Jango/Boba Fett, Every Clone Trooper, etc.

....Boba Fett vs Judge Dredd would be an interesting match up....they both had Dark Horse comics back in the 90s/00s IIRC...

[–] Longpork3@lemmy.nz 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Don't forget his most iconic roles; Jake the Muss, and Dr Ropata.

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I am assuming those are shows or movies from New Zealand?

I've never heard of them, but I will see if I can find a copy of either on Internet Archive!

[–] illi@piefed.social 6 points 4 days ago

Thanks! Drove me crazy. I didn't recognize the quote at first and he was just vaguely familiar.

[–] steal_your_face@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 days ago

He plays Boba fett, jango fett, and the clones from the star wars prequels and series.

[–] LavaPlanet@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago

Sam Neil runs a farm in nz now. Posts his baby farm animals and chills. Makes awesome one liners riding around on his atv / tractor.

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 1 points 2 days ago

The Kiwi cinematic universe.

[–] KiwiTB@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

Tem and Karl were in shortland street.... Don't think Sam was.
