Before I saw LOTR, I had never heard of Orlando Bloom, Viggo Mortensen, Sean Astin, Sean Bean, or the two guys who played Merry and Pippin whose names have escaped me. Actually, I had seen Sean Astin in some movies before, when I was a kid, I just had forgotten who he was by the time I saw LOTR. XD Guys like Ian Holm, Christopher Lee, and Ian McKellen have been around a long time though. I remembered Ian Holm from Alien...how could you forget that guy after seeing him go crazy and spew milk blood everywhere?
