Face it, you're Addicted to Boyd (25001- and up) Posts: 32977 01/07/06 12:52:01 Administrator Keeper of Billy's scruff, his magnificent hairy chest, rosebud lips & manly sideburns	Tags : None These are quotes by and about Billy! Swiped from all over the net and by esorlehcar Live Journal. From:www.aboutfilm.com/movies/l/lordoftherings3.htm But as McKellen and Mortensen have had two films to wow us (and have wowed us both times), a lesser known supporting player steps to the forefront in this third installmentBilly Boyd. If Pippin in any way stole the show in Tolkien's book, it is minimal compared to Boyd's film-stealing performance. Boyd wields the kind of charisma present in the best lead actors, elevating Pippin to the status he needs as one of the main catalysts of Return of the King. He is far more convincing than his co-stars as both a comedic and dramatic actor. From: www.digitallyobsessed.com/showtheaterreview.php3?ID=58 Perhaps the most impressive performance is that of Billy Boyd who, as Pippin, served primarily as comic relief in the first film. His character showed definite signs of growth in the second film and here, Pippin erupts in full bloom, running the gamut from being foolish and cowardly to loyal and brave, all with a comic flair, and a beautiful singing voice to boot. From: atomiq.org/archives/2003/12/return_of_the_king_is_rather_great.html And Billy Boyd gave a remarkable performance as the scared, reluctantly courageous Pippen. I cared more about Pippen's storyline in Minas Tirith than Sam and Frodo's predictable march up Mount Doom. Are you and Billy a couple? Dom: Yes! So that means you're gay? Dom: No! Are you bisexual? Dom: No! Then what you are you? Dom: Billysexual! I mean, Billy is one of the few people in my life that even though I really enjoy comedy and I really enjoy watching funny films and stuff like that, it's seldom that I'll really lose my s*** laughing Really tears coming out my eyes, snot coming out my noise, laughing to the point where you can't really breathe and stuff. Billy can do that. Billy has a really beautiful silliness to him, you know? That would be my main kind of way of describing the way that Billy's funny, is that he has a silliness, and a beautiful kind of innocent, silly body language A fabricated nave act that isn't real, because he's a wise guy and he's been around for a long time and he knows how the world works but he puts on this nave act which is beautiful. He's definitely one of the funniest guys I've ever met in my life, and I think that's one of the reasons why we spend so much time together, because it's always entertaining. We just smile which I think is one of the best gifts that you can give to a friend If you can make them feel good and make them feel up about things. Do you want me to tell you, like, Billy's most used phrase in life? 'I'm tired!'. 'That's me away off home'. I mean we're best friends you know, but... I mean we are literally best friends... but we are complete opposites. He wakes up at 7.30 in the morning you know, 'Hi. Hellooo. How're you doing?' and goes to bed at like, you know 8.30, 9 o'clock at night. Gets in his pyjama's at 7.30 and gets all toastie. I wake up at midday, in a terrible mood because I've just woken up and start to just wake up about 4 in the morning, something like that. So we never really saw each other when we were working you know. On the weekend I don't wake up. By the time .. he's asleep by the time I'm up and getting ready. That's probably why we like each other so much - we come from different ends of the spectrum. Billy and I are very, very strongly connected. When we are making each other laugh, I don't see anyone else in the room. He's got quite enchanting eyes. You know how it is with the eclipse? If you keep looking at it for a certain amount of time, you can't stop - you have to keep looking at it. That's like Billy's eyes - if you look at them for more than 20 or 30 seconds, then you're hooked. Boyd: We have each other, too. Merry's the one who gets Pippin into trouble. Monaghan: That's just the kind of thing Pippin would say. That's my Billy. He's so charming--it's like he can do no wrong. --E! Online, March 2001 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dom: bill i wanna muff you :isabelle :MUFF??? Dom: yes its a short hand term.

Dom: remember when i baked you that pie and you squirted all yur sauce all over it Dom: 'sorry stu Dom: my bad tongue is the death of all my families Dom: i will behave. sauce Dom: its not just my tongue thats bad. my spleen once stole 100 dollars from a 7/11 :stewart :questions for the boys?

Dom: bill. bye. see you at the baftas i will be wearing a red carnation a pint of milk all down my face Billy: Then I will know who you are, I shall wear a princesses dress --BillyBoyd.net official chat, February 2002 (full chat here, since there's a lot cut out above. Dom and Elijah on the same computer both using Elijah's screenname - name above changed to Dom for clarity's sake) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There's a rumour that Orlando Bloom is the most popular sexy lead character. What do you think? BB: That's actually untrue. I don't know where you get that. That's a statistic you've made up. So you're saying the hobbits are sexier? DM: The hobbits are the heart of the movie - they're the emotional core for goodness sake! BB: And we're handsome for God's sake. [points to Dominic] Look how pretty this man is! --CBBC Newround, December 2002 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Monaghan: I never had a problem with my dating life. Boyd: Women like you? Monaghan: What is that about? Boyd: I don't know! --MTV.com, December 2002 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We would be up that tree all day except for lunch. So you're talking, you know, maybe 10, 12 hour days, up a tree. And, eh, looks at Dom K-I-S-S-I-N-G. --TTT press junket interview, December 2002 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Billy Boyd: But we had to be hooked in for safety reasons. With the hands and the branches, the natural sitting position was forward about 45 degrees, so you're always kind of hanging out of it. It got to the point that it was so difficult to get unhooked and to get down the ladder and then get back up again that we only went down for lunch. So in tea breaks, they would just hand us up a cup of tea and everyone would leave the studio, and it'd just be me, Dom and Treebeard. Sittin' there, havin' a cup of tea. Dominic Monaghan: A nice bonding experience. Well, you've been hanging around together for the last three years. What becomes of that sort of relationship? Dominic Monaghan: Love. Deep-seated love. Though not on a sexual basis. No, yeah, we hang out all the time. We understand each other very well, we know what makes each other tick. And in terms of our career, we'd both like to work together for the rest of our lives. Solely, until the day we die. ... Since the first movie, tourism to New Zealand has gone up 20 percent... Billy Boyd: 20 percent seems right. Someone told us that children reading novels has also gone up 20 percent. Also, Dom is 20 percent more handsome than he was when he started the movie. Dominic Monaghan: You can see that, right? I think that's very apparent. Billy Boyd: Yeah. I would say it's more 30, 35 percent. ... Elijah has the ring kept in a box as a sort of souvenir. Did you keep anything from the shoot? Dominic Monaghan: I have a few feet. I've got a ring as well. And some ears. A few things, the original script and a few books that have been signed by everyone. Billy Boyd: I have nothing. You could get Dom to give you some feet. Billy Boyd: Yeah. Dominic Monaghan: No, I'm not giving him anything. Billy Boyd: Come on. Dominic Monaghan: No. Billy Boyd: Come on. Dominic Monaghan: They wouldn't fit you anyway, they're my feet. Billy Boyd: Well, steal my feet next time. Dominic Monaghan: Ok. --GreenCine, December 2002 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- B.L. How has life changed for you guys since all of this hype over The Lord of The Rings? B.B. Not in any kind of major way. We get recognized a lot more than we used to ... Of course your work has kind of opened up to a wider audience and it opens up some doors to do some other work with people who you respect. But other than that, things havent really changed in a deep way. My friends are still my friends and family is still family. D.M. Dogs are still your dogs? B.B. Yeah D.M. Cats are still cats? B.B. No, cats are monkeys now. D.M. Are the monkeys nice? B.B. No ... crazy talk! --MovieMail, December 2002 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So are the hobbits gay? "Sure, why not?" quips the hunky hobbit Dominic Monaghan, 26. "We did everything together. We even showered together," indicating his co-hobbit, the impish Scottish comedian Billy Boyd, 34. "Oh! Why did you have to go and tell them that?" moans Boyd, putting his head in his heads. "We did once, but I like to keep to try to keep it in the back of my mind." --NY Blade, December 2002 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dom: There were times when someone would get tired and lose their temper, but we became such good friends that we got to know when someone was at the breaking point and whether they needed a night out or just a good night's sleep, whether they needed to be left alone or given a hug-- Bill: I need a hug! Dom: Not now! Bill: The great thing is, if there was any danger of losing it, you really only had to remind yourself that you were ... making this moving that's going to be seen by generations. Q: Which could be enough to terrify you out of your wits! Bill: That's true! In fact, for the first three months I couldn't think about it; every time I did I'd just pass out! Dom: Fall down, flat on his face, he would! Bill: One time, in a cactus! Dom: It was like an Itchy & Scratchy cartoon! Personally, I think it's too dangerous to keep thinking about the future. I'm all about living for the moment and being in the now... Bill: I think if you're lucky enough to have a choice in life, then you have to choose what you feel, in your guts, is right for you at the time. This film, this experience, was right for me - for us. Dom: I'm the same as Bill... Bill: Are you really? Well, I'm tired and I could do with a bath... I stink! Dom: That's true! You do! You stink of elderberries and wizards! --LotR: Making of the Movie Trilogy, published 2002 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What were the most difficult scenes to shoot? BILLY: When Merry and Pippin split up. [Dominic and I] really had a great relationship by that point and to do scenes where Dom wasn't there...it was just really strange. Really weird! DOMINIC: It's a support system! So much of acting on set is a feeling of confidence, and being separated from someone who's been your support system for 9 or 10 months is really hard. --Not for Adults, January 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Dom] was like a ping pong ball... he bounced all over the room going over to where people were shouting Dom Dom. at him, not really DOING or SAYING much of anything exactly... just meeting and greeting and.. mugging for people, in turns grinning and staring in that intent way he has at them. He did this a while... till I became afraid that on one of his rounds he would just bounce out and Id lose my chance to meet him. But I shouldn't have been, cause he came homing in on Billy. Would not proceed upstairs without him. But, to amuse himself until Billy was ready, he hung around, standing behind Billy and putting his arms around his shoulders in a hug. It made a pretty scene. While Dom was hugging-mauling him, Billy was sporting a very serious expression and answering the questions of the red haired lady reporter from Dayton, Ohio standing next to me. And then I heard the lady inquire something to the effect of who was the most significant person Billy met during the filming of Lord of the Rings. And Doms hug turned into a throttle. Which got his co-actors attention. I heard Billy's semi strangled voice suddenly perk up and increase in volume with his reply of "Why that would be ... my very best friend Mr. Dominic Monaghan! --Fan report from the TTT TORN party, March 2003 We were 10, 12 hours up in that tree,(looks at Dom) KISSING

Pippins Penny	Re: Billy Quotes	#1	[url]	[-]
Face it, you're Addicted to Boyd (25001- and up) Posts: 32977 01/07/06 12:53:03 Administrator Keeper of Billy's scruff, his magnificent hairy chest, rosebud lips & manly sideburns	"If you've read the book, you know that Merry and Pippin split up," he said. "And I think after what people have seen in the first two movies, and see how close Merry and Pippin are, there's some lovely stuff when you see them split up. "To see two of the greatest friends losing each other, the actual anchor they have to reality just goes, and they're basically left with nothing." Geez, even just hearing about it is enough to break a guy's heart! "Me too," Boyd said. "Luckily, Merry's on his way round for breakfast right now, so it must come out all right." --Edmonton Sun, March 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOYD: ... the last person to arrive from the fellowship was Dom, because he was working in a thing, a TV program in France. And of course, he was the first person I wanted to meet, because he was playing Merry, and I knew that we were going to spend a lot of time together. So it became more and more worrying if I wouldn't like this guy, you know? Luckily, as soon as he arrived, we just hit it off and became great friends very, very quickly. IGNFF: Which shows onscreen. BOYD: Yeah, I can't believe how perfect that was, because I think they were having quite a lot of trouble casting Merry. They couldn't find someone that they wanted. I think Dom had originally auditioned for Frodo, and it was only when they went back and looked at the Frodo tapes that they thought, "He looks good." They met him again, and luckily for me they cast him. Because I couldn't have thought of anyone that I'd rather have spent that amount of time with. ... BOYD: I think there's a lot of stuff that you haven't seen yet. There was always a behind the scenes camera there that'd just tape whatever anyone was doing, but if me and Dom'd get bored, we'd go and do our little thing. We'd say to whoever had the camera, "Come with us." There's a few that you haven't seen yet. One that jumps out at me is one when I locked Dom in a cupboard, that you should look at, because he didn't bring me the right flavor of Haagen-Dazs. So he was punished. IGNFF: Have you already put in a request for that to be featured on a future DVD? BOYD: I think we should! In fact, there's a great tape that no one has seen, that's very hilarious, that I have here. Orlando bought a video camera while he was there, and me and Dom stole it when we were going to South Island. What happened was, they were filming Frodo and Sam's story in the South Islands somewhere, and they put everyone up in hotels while they were doing this, but they didn't have any wet weather cover for Frodo and Sam. So if it started to rain and they couldn't film Frodo and Sam, there was nothing to film, you know? And you can't have that. You can't have a day without filming, so they set an inside set, which was a Merry and Pippin set. So they said to us, "It's too far to fly you every day, so you guys will have to come down, but it means that you probably won't be working." They said, "So rather than put you up in the hotel, we'll get you a nice house down here, while you're here." It was just in a small place in the South Island. We thought, "Yeah, great! We'll just hang out and watch movies or whatever." So we stole Orlando's camera, and there is a tape of that week, of me and Dom sharing a house together, which must make it onto a DVD at sometime. --IGN Filmforce, April 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SEVERAL OF THE CAST AND CREW MEMBERS WE HAVE INTERVIEWED MENTIONED THE COMIC TIMING THAT YOU AND DOMINIC MONAGHAN SHARED. WAS THAT FAIRLY INSTANTANEOUS OR DID IT DEVELOP AS THE FILMING WENT ON? Billy: We have the same sense of humor and realized that the first time we met. It is great when you meet someone like that, because not so much in the films, but off set, Dom and I get each other even though probably no one else does. We really had that almost instantaneously. It's kind of fun for us. Because we worked so closely for over a year and a half, we could read each other's minds. It was great for the scenes. The great thing for an actor is to feel safe in a scene--to feel like whatever happens, the other actor is there and will help them out. I always felt 100 percent that way about Dom. In comedy, you have to feel that way even more. For comedy to work best, you have to go out on a limb, you know ... and [when you do], someone else could bring you down [or] really put a wall up. Dom would never do that. No matter what I said, Dom was right there [in] the moment. It was just so much fun. --LotR Fanclub Magazine, April/May 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dom: Fuck you. Billy: Fuck YOU. Dom: Maybe. --queenmab85's report from the charades fundraiser in September 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- They're standing in front of this really cool cafe ... and Dom's asking me if it's any good. Sure, I say, they have great crepes, but I don't think they serve those in the afternoon. So then Dom asks me about the sushi place a few doors down. The sushi place is fucking amazing & I tell Dom this...and he says to Billy, "See, Brenda likes the Sushi place." And Billy replies, "But I'm no' in the mood for Sushi" (while giving me this apologetic little smile, like I'm going to get offended...meep). And Dom says, "But Brenda thinks it's nice." And Billy replies (same smile) "I'm no' in the mood for fish." So, then Dom asks me about the Greek place that's next to the Sushi place. "Yeah, it's amazing," I say. ... We talk for a bit more about the cafe where we are (some discussion about Dom not being able to eat any of the food there, to which Billy said, "Just order the lamp chops & roast potatoes" ... And they were so cute while they were eating, too. I had some errands to run for the store & when I came back, they were still eating Leaning in towards each other, drinking wine, sharing dessert. Just lovely to see how beautiful & deep their friendship is. --azewewish's report of meeting Dom and Billy in LA in September 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- then met dom. and all i can say is, wow. i have been dominated! it was amazing (this is the highlight of the day for me) because as wse were walking up to the table billy caled him on his phone and then he put it on loud speaker so that we could all talk to him. but it didn't work so he kind of just handed me the phone and said 'here, take this' so i was like WOAH. i'm on dominic monaghan's phone, talking to billy boyd.... and apparantly (according to my friends) i managed to actually have a conversation with him! he kept asking me things as i was about to pass him down the line, which showed that he actually genuinely wanted to talk to a fan. i almost died! he asked me how i was, if i'd been there long and where i was from, whetehr i was having a good time, did dom look pretty (to which i replied 'hell yes!) then he told me to give him a kiss.. several times! in the end i said 'ok you've persuaded me' and said 'this one's from billy and me!' and kissed dom, then hugged him. aaah, bliss. though i'm still really scared that bily is convinced i am mentally unstable and a complete and total tit! the poor guy... still he was realy sweet on the phone. and dom was really nice too! i got a good hug and a picture with him. --Fan Collectormania 4 report, October 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Question: I'd just like to say to you (Dom) on the extended DVD you talk about how you got a massive splinter in your foot. How big was it actually, and how much did it actually hurt? Dom: How big was it actually? To the naked eye? Under a microscope it was huge. Many, many pieces! No, it was small but the thing that happened was that you know you put pressure on it. You run. Running on it. That was painful. What happened was I was making quite a big deal out of it because I do like to make a big deal out of things. Billy and Elijah were around when the paramedic came round and opened my fake foot and was trying to get the thing out. I was sweating and nearly passing out. Billy was holding my hand and just, you know, keeping me talking, 'Just keep talking'. And they pulled out this thing that was about the size of a rice krispy if you cut it in about 60 pieces. And I never really lived it down. I'm sure, like I said on the DVD, it was made of titanium, you know some kind of hard metal that sent some sort of poison through my foot, and it was very, very painful. Question: Ah, let's see (garbled - something about Billy Boyd) Dom: Because he's not here. Do you want me to tell you, like, Billy's most used phrase in life? 'I'm tired!'. 'That's me away off home'. I mean we're best friends you know, but... I mean we are literally best friends... but we are complete opposites. He wakes up at 7.30 in the morning you know, 'Hi. Hellooo. How're you doing?' and goes to bed at like, you know 8.30, 9 o'clock at night. Gets in his pyjama's at 7.30 and gets all toastie. I wake up at midday, in a terrible mood because I've just woken up and start to just wake up about 4 in the morning, something like that. So we never really saw each other when we were working you know. On the weekend I don't wake up. By the time .. he's asleep by the time I'm up and getting ready. That's probably why we like each other so much - we come from different ends of the spectrum. --Ian Smith's Collectormania 4 report, October 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Did you get all emotional at the end of that days shoot? Billy: I ran around and kissed everybody. Remember that? Yeah, I was really emotional. It kind of hit me quite hard actually because I didn't think it would. You didn't cry, though? Billy: No, I didn't cry. But I was quite sad. Dom: Its very hard to get Billy to cry. What were your presents? Billy: I got my sword that I just stabbed the Orc with, my last clapper board, some feet. That was about it. What did you get me? Dom: I didnt get you anything. Billy: Yeah, exactly. Dom: I gave you my friendship. Billy: That's not enough. ... Billy: Ian Holm's one of my great heroes, and Dominic Monaghan of course, one of the great, great actors. Dom: A classic. --Latino Review, November 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So what's on the cards for Billy Boyd in the future? "I might be doing a British movie at the start of next year. It's sort of romantic comedy, but written from a guy's point of view. Also, me and Dom have written a script which we're pushing to get made next year." Ah yes - Dominic. Finally then Billy, who would win in a fight, Dominic Monaghan or Dermot Murnaghan, presenter of the BBC Breakfast News? "I think Dominic would win that. He's very fast. He's fast but also sly. He's sly like a fox but fast like a monkey. He did once study in a Shaolin temple the monkey-fox style, which he mastered. Ask him about his monkey-fox style. It's very strong. Almost as strong as the dragon style." --Daily Telegraph, November 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Billy: I'd just like to take this moment to say how proud I am to be in these movies, when you sit down and watch 'em again. Dom: I'd like to say how proud I am to be sitting next to you, Billy. Billy: Well, you... you won't be for long. Billy: I love you. Dom: I love you. Billy: Thanks. --The Two Towers actor commentary (TTT extended edition released November 2003) We were 10, 12 hours up in that tree,(looks at Dom) KISSING

He likes the pictures, particularly one of Aragorn leading the Army of the Dead (which I hadn't seen before and is not immediately apparent in the online version of the article), pronouncing it: DM: That's a great picture... Director: Is that the Premiere article? DM: Naw, this is the Newsweek. Director: Where's the one with you on the cover? DM: Yeah, that's the Premiere. I haven't seen this one; I've got to pick up a copy. Director: I was going to pick one up for you today - They look through it a bit together and he points out the little picture of Pippin to her. DM: That's Billy!! Director: Oh? That's him? I can't adequately describe what he did next. He kind of affectionately shook the magazine and while looking at Billy's picture started saying, in this silly, playful, affectionate voice: DM: BillyBillyBillyBilly!!Billy! It was just beyond any rational standards of cute. Dying was imminant, bc hi, being there for adorable spontaneous Billy affection from Dom? Good. God. A girl has her limits of what she can reasonably be expected to live through. --camillafarfalla's report of meeting Dom while he was filming Shooting Livien in November 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- After seveal rounds of Asahi, Monaghan and Boyd are clearly feeling sentimental; now that they're not spending every day strapped together in a fake tree, they get together only when one's passing through the other's town (Los Angeles in Monaghan's case, Glasgow in Boyd's). "I saved Billy's life once," sighs Monaghan, recalling a time in a London restaurant when he Heimliched a piece of shrimp out of his partner in crime. (And now, partner in writing; the two are collaborating long-distance on a screenplay.) Boyd parries: "I love your sense of humor. And the way you wear your clothes." --Time Out New York, December 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ... it's Billy who delivers my favourite lines of the evening when Brian asks him where Dom is. "Dom's not coming. He's dead," Billy says deadpan, before adding matter-of-factly "I killed him!" --Ian Smith's RotK London Tour report, December 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Billy and I are very, very strongly connected," Monaghan says. "When we are making each other laugh, I don't see anyone else in the room." --Premiere, December 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dom: I'd like to do a E! True Hollywood Story. Billy: On who? Dom: looks meaningfully at Billy Billy: pleased Ooh! Interviewer: What do you think it would be about? Dom: Oh, Billy's sexual antics through his early 20s. Billy: Which was quite incredible. Dom: You did some good work, huh. Billy: Mmmhmm. Interviewer: ... How long would we have to devote of the hour-long show to Billy's-- Dom: To Billy blowing his sexual bagpipes up and down the highlands and lowlands of Scotland. Billy: Good three or four minutes, eh? Dom: Yeah, three or four. And then probably fifteen or twenty on the way you play guitar. Billy: seriously Yeah. Interviewer: Oh, you play guitar? Billy: Yeah. Dom: You wouldn't believe it. He's incredible. Interviewer: Is that how you passed your time in New Zealand? For four years? Billy: I did play some guitar in New Zealand, yeah. Dom: It's how he managed to woo me into bed. ... Interviewer: What I'm getting at is, you guys are like ying and yang, you're so good together, you can finish each other's sentences -- how do girls compete? You guys could probably win the newlywed game, the two of you. Billy: The girls smell better. Right? Dom: Yeah. And they have parts on their bodies that we don't have. Billy: in unison with Dom That we don't have. Dom: looking at Billy But no one's going to be funnier. Billy: looking mock seriously back at Dom No. Dom: Or make better sushi. Billy: I make good sushi. Dom: over Billy He makes really good sushi. Interviewer: That's true. So, yeah... Dom: There's a guy in England... I think he put it the best possible way. He said, "You guys go together like rama lama lama and kadingidy ding de bop." Which just perfectly encapsulates how we both feel about each other. grabs Billy's hand Billy: Don't hold me. Don't hold me. Interviewer: That's where you draw the line, Billy? Billy: No touching. Dom: I can look though, can't I? Billy: You can look, but you can't touch. ... Billy: We've even got plans to work together again. We've wrote a script together that we're trying to get made. There are also a couple other things, there's a theatre play that we want to do together, so I think, have our own careers, but kind of speckle it with jobs that we do together, I think would be a lot of fun. Dom: Well, I think-- Billy: turns to Dom and interrupts mock fiercely Until I get bored with you. Dom: You will never get bored with me. Billy: I'll drop you like an oily rag. Dom: Ow! puts a hand on his heart That hurt! Billy: I'm sure that hurt. Dom: We both have the same interests. Like Billy said, we want to go off and do our own thing but then every so often, just come as a kind of... buddy kind of pairing ... You know, we'd just like to be on stage together. We just enjoy each other's company, and when we're around each other it's kind of inspiring because we always think about new things. Billy: nods Yeah. Dom: The same thing can be said of Elijah and Orlando and Viggo, we're constantly trying to work out ways of getting together... Billy: Do you like me the best? Dom: Yeah, you're my favorite. Billy: smug Yeah. ... stylist moves into the shot and starts smoothing down Dom's hair Dom: Am I having hair problems?! Stylist: You have an Alfalfa, just a little... Dom: glares at Billy Why didn't you tell me? Billy: Well, I didn't notice! I was taken by your eyes. Dom: woeful I feel like Mr. Majeika. Billy: dreamily Remember Alfalfa? He was funny. --E! interview during an RotK press junket, December 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- At another point during the interview, Billy Boyd lifted the cover of Dominics rice bowl and snitched several grains. This garnered the first fully awake reaction from Dominic. Dominic glared at Billy. Billy opened his eyes widely and innocently. Thats nice, muttered Dominic. ... At the end of their session, Dominic said he'd be spending Christmas and New Years with Billy in the Lake District of England. And then Dominic cuddled Billy like mad, while Billy protested, "We're vacationing together, but we still like women." --TORN press conference report, December 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spin: Any other surprising perks? Monaghan: Women. Spin: You mean groupies? Monaghan: Well, it's more people coming over to talk to you than actually women, right? Boyd: It just means that a lot of women have seen Dom on a big screen with a giant, 15-foot head. In any group of people, each member often develops a particular identify - the brain, the jock, the drama queen. Did this happen to you? Monaghan: Once, when we went back for reshoots, the four hobbits were riding horses. Boyd: Elijah was having a lot of trouble with his horse but he was trying to be a leader, and Sean was having an allergic reaction to the horses. Dom was in a bad mood - Monaghan: - I was grumpy because of certain technical things that were pissing me off about the scene. Boyd: And I was just in stitches watching all of them. It was so funny. And a girl from the special effects team was standing there with a friend, and she looks at us and says, "Sneezy, Happy, Grumpy and Doc," and walked away. --Spin, December 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Has your asking price gone up? BB: Professionally? Yeah, and I get offered better scripts. And I get a chance to work with people I never thought Id get a chance to work with. DM: Dom Monaghan? BB: Dom Monaghan being one. Peter Wier being another. --About.com, December 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dominic: Do you still believe in Santa Claus? Billy: Well yeah. Q: You too? Dominic: Yeah. Billy: Of course. --TheOneRing.com, December 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NP: Billy, you starred in Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World. What was it like? D: Last night I was congratulated on Master and Commander. They said, "I very much enjoyed Master and Commander." I said, "So did I." I've been asked to sign pictures of Billy. I was asked by a Japanese journalist, what is the melody of your character. B: What do you say to that? D: G sharp. B: The happiest of all keys. NP: Dominic, I understand you studied martial arts for an upcoming film. [Billy punches Dominic in the chest.] D: I like to take people off their guard by allowing them to hit me and then suddenly coming back with a cobra technique. B: Well, your cobra technique is strong. D: I did study wushu for about eight weeks, which is really nothing. But I was able to kick over my head, which is good fun. That's a great thing about the job. Billy was doing Master and Commander and learning about knots and seamanship and when I went down to visit him in Mexico I woke up tied to my bed in half-sheep shanks and double weaves. B: You usually have to pay for that kind of service. --National Post, December 2003 We were 10, 12 hours up in that tree,(looks at Dom) KISSING

Did you guys know each much before this? DOMINIC: We didnt know each other, in any aspect, before Lord of the Rings. BILLY (to Dominic): But I knew you from your magical theme. I used to watch you on TV. DOMINIC: From my exemplary TV series BILLY: Yes. DOMINIC: No, we didnt know each other. We just met in New Zealand. We spent every day, including our days off, with each other all the time. You just get to know someone very close. Q: Are you guys still hanging out? BILLY: Yeah, we still hang out. DOMINIC: We spent a lot of time together this year. We went down to see Orlando [Bloom] in Mexico. We write together and were trying to get theaters involved with plays we want to do together in London and possibly New York. I think our ideal ethic would be that we go off, for three or four years and we do our own thing, and then we come back here and do something together again. BILLY: We can do Grumpy Old Men together! Q: Have you guys played the video games as your own characters? BILLY: The new one does have us, but as secret characters, but you have to finish the game. But Ive never finished the game in my life. But I actually met the people from EA who make the game and they gave me the cheat code that you just put in and then we just pop out. How great is that? DOMINIC: Brilliant. BILLY (to Dominic): Im going to play you. DOMINIC: As Merry and Pippin in the game, were quite sarcastic. So if you have Aragorn, hes like, Cmon keep fighting, stay alive! Whereas Merry and Pippin are like, Oh, youre rubbish! What are you doing? --Cinema Confidential News, December 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- B.B. I do have the bath towels because I like to enclose myself in myself. Its like having a hug from me. D.M. Which is one of his greatest fantasies in the world. B.B. Exactly, Dominic, exactly. ... B.L. How has this affected your social lives, like in your relationships? B.B. Women want us. D.M. Yes, women will approach you ... I enjoy being approached by women I have to admit. Ive very much embraced that and taken the bull by its horns. B.B. Ive seen you do that. D.M. There was a bull, remember that night? B.B. What a night that was! D.M. You just have to embrace the fact that that is how it is going to be now. But we are quite disarming when people come over, especially if someone is like freaked out by the fact that they are meeting you ... You do get those kind of weird shaky people, I like them. And when you hold them theyre always kind of hot. B.B. [laughs] Really? ... I thought it would be boys, but its not. Its mainly young girls that are obsessed with these movies. Much more girls than boys. (To Dominic) I would approach you if I were a little girl. Id be all shaky and hot. Id give you a lollipop. ... D.M. I have a lot of things. Im really interested in working for the Discovery channel. Im going to try and present some programs about animals that I am really interested in. B.B. Bees. D.M. Were not going to get into this conversation again. Im friends with a lot of people in Greenpeace, and Ive been trying to get involved with nature programs because they were one of the greatest influences in my youth. So Im going to try to get to Madagascar in the early part of next year, and Tahiti and the Arctic. Take a crew and make a documentary, talk about whats happening in the world. And kiss your beautiful face (to Billy). B.B. Dont you dare. And dont forget about our movie. --MovieMail, December 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MONAGHAN: Billy (Boyd) is one of the few people in my life that even though I really enjoy comedy and I really enjoy watching funny films and stuff like that, it's seldom that I'll really lose my s*** laughing Really tears coming out my eyes, snot coming out my noise, laughing to the point where you can't really breathe and stuff. Billy can do that. Billy has a really beautiful silliness to him, you know? That would be my main kind of way of describing the way that Billy's funny, is that he has a silliness, and a beautiful kind of innocent, silly body language A fabricated nave act that isn't real, because he's a wise guy and he's been around for a long time and he knows how the world works but he puts on this nave act which is beautiful. He's definitely one of the funniest guys I've ever met in my life, and I think that's one of the reasons why we spend so much time together, because it's always entertaining. We just smile which I think is one of the best gifts that you can give to a friend If you can make them feel good and make them feel up about things. --IGN FilmForce, December 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- And sure enough, he half turned to talk to the person next to him and BILLY. No one else seemed to really notice -- there were some fans, I think, sitting in the row behind him that I'm sure totally noticed, but they were also normal fans and were just sort of sitting, trying not to get excited. So now we're really looking around to see who else might have come in, when I see, out of the corner of my eye, DOM, coming down the theatre aisle, very calm and casual. He stopped to shake a few people's hands who realized it was him as he passed, said hello, but was very low-key about the whole thing. Billy sort of half got up and Dom trotted over to him the rest of the way and we held our breath in anticipation of DomBilly interaction. He put his hands on Billy's chairback, leaned over so Billy had to sit back down, and Dom kissed him hello. Billy kind of wriggled up and wrapped his arms around him and it was. Just. Okay, I might have stood up, like, Pointer-like, you know? snickers I shot out of my seat to see better, and Jenn was like, omg, did we just see that? It was lovely. They were very happy to see each other. Because I notice there are no DomBilly pics from this premiere, so I wonder if they had missed each other on the red carpet. But oh! Words cannot describe. Right then, I think we sort of knew this was going to be more amazing than we thought, to get to share a little bit of that glow they all have for each other, and to be able to share it with each other at the same time! I felt extremely lucky, awed, even. And also fhdjsklhfjkdlsa. But that's as per usual. --sparcck's report from the LA RotK premiere, December 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Elijah: gushes at length about how beautiful Japanese women are and how much he loves them Viggo: Guys, you might wanna ease up a little bit, the men in the room are loooking verrrrry serious right now. Billy: I've got a girlfriend now, so I don't even notice women anymore. Dom: Yes, we've been together now, three and a half years. --Japanese RotK press conference, January 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Billy: Imagine I'm a girl. Dom: turns to face Billy and leans in All right? Billy: Yeah, I'm good. Dom: D'you wanna... you wanna kiss me deeply? Billy: Where? Dom: tapping his lips with his finger Little round mouth. Billy: Yeah, I'll have a go at that. Dom: turns back to the camera See? Billy: It works! I'd have never of thought I'd have done it. -- Local TV station interview, January 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dominic Monaghan: We're good friends you know. It's not too difficult to be friends with someone when you're having such a great time. There's kind of an unspoken thing that goes on between us now. We know what we've all been through to get to this point. It's an incredibly strong link. ... Boyd: I think it's up to us as actors now, to pick our parts quite carefully so that people will see that we're not just hobbits. We can play other things. Dom will be very good in say - a geisha girl. Monaghan: Well, thank you. It's a script I've been entertaining people with for the past couple of weeks. You should see me in a kimono. Ohhh! Boyd: When he's closely shaved and got makeup on ... Monaghan: I look very, very beautiful. Boyd: Oh, he's quite enchanting! ... Q: Billy's like a teacher for you, isn't he? Monaghan: Ohh, he's like a wise old master. My samurai mentor. Boyd: Go and get me some ice cream (laughing). No, we teach each other. It's a wonderful relationship. One day I'm the teacher and the next day he is. One day, I'm the geisha, and then he's the geisha. One day I'm the frog and he's the prince. Q: And where do you think your friendship is heading in the future? Dominic, you said you wanted to see Billy at your wedding? Boyd: If he pays for my plane fare. Monaghan: I'll pay for it. Boyd: And my hotel? Monaghan: Well, you can sleep on my floor with my new wife. Boyd: OK. I'll go (laughing). Monaghan: You know, I think Billy and I will know each other for the rest of our lives. We can't go through an experience, which comes to define huge parts of you, and just let it all go. We've written this script together and we're going to try and work together. The idea for Billy and I is to go off and do our own things and come back every five years or so and do a project, whether it be a play, a film or a television show. --Ashai Weekly, February 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Speaking of the award, picked up by his colleague Billy Boyd, Dominic told me: Ill allow Billy to hold onto the award, as then Ill always know where it is. --Student Direct, February 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "I did some stuff on a huge horse which is called the Phony Pony," recounts Dom, "which is an oversized horse, with an oversized Miranda who was Tall Paul. So he was dressed as Miranda. Very arousing." "I've never seen him as Miranda," muses Billy, evidently feeling deprived. "That could have pushed me over the edge, that." "So he was right behind me," continues Dom without missing a beat. "And then they shot some stuff past her with my scale double at the time, and they just blended it together. Can you just stop touching my pickles?" "Your pickles," replies Billy, "are tasty, tasty pickles." --Starburst, March 2004 We were 10, 12 hours up in that tree,(looks at Dom) KISSING

Dom: I can't... don't remember. Billy: Who was that again? Dom: Some guy. He was very unprofessional. Billy: looking up at the ceiling Uhh. nodding It was me. Dom: Was it you? Billy: Yeah, it was me. Dom: I can't remember that far back in time. Billy: Yeah, it was only a minute ago. Dom: Yeah. Well. Interviwer: to Billy Well, you're not the kind of guy who would rub it in? Billy: No. But it was me that won. Dom: Was it? Billy: Yeah. Dom: See, I can't hear that. Billy: What? Dom: looking up at ceiling and whistling Interviewer: to Dom You and I could team up. Dom: to interviewer Yeah. You'd probably beat me though. Billy: to Dom I beat you. Dom: Did you? Billy: Yeah, I won. Dom: looking defeated Hoo... it's been a bad night for me. Interviewer: You have a game about yourselves, right? Dom and Billy: Yeah. Interviewer: Kind of. Dom: Well not even 'kind of', but, you know, definitely. Interviewer: It's a nice calling card to tell someone... to say 'I'm in a videogame, here it is.' Dom: Would you like to play with me? On the computer. Billy: Yeah. On the, you know... motioning with his hands downward ...grab the joypad and go. looks at Dom Interviewer: to Billy You're walking a fine line there, aren't you? Billy: Am I? looks at Dom What's that? Dom: to Billy Too many metaphors. Because people can see through that... Billy: smiling and bouncing on his feet Dom: ... and think it's some sort of sexual connotation that it isn't. Billy: It wasn't. Dom: I know. You're a very innocent man. Billy: I know. Dom: Yeah. Billy: I won. Dom: looking away What? Billy: Me! --Transcript of Billy and Dom on G4, March 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I asked Dominic if he has a date tonight. And he said, yeah and pointed to Billy who was doing soundcheck on his guitar. --Fan report, March 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Me and Dom are, you know, incredibly close friends and, it sort of helped in the making of Return of the King because I really missed Dom. And, you know, I would hope that he missed me as well. And he was off filming mainly in the Edoras set which is down in the south island, and I was in the North Island, in Minis Tirith. So we didn't even see each other in the evenings, or be able go out and have a game of pool, or get a pint, you know, a weekend. So it kind of reflected on the movie, because I was really missing him and he was missing me, so we're anything but sick of each other. --Transcript of Billy on G4, March 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- J gave him the calendar that funnybitch gave her for Christmas that is all LOTR people....DOM LOVED IT!!!! He called it the "unofficial Dominic Monaghan calendar" :grin:...the best though was as he was looking through it, amazed as he was, he stopped on a picture of Billy and said "I love Billy" and just sighed ... He also came across a picture of himself in November and says "I look rather tired in this one eh? But also kinda sexy"...yeah, we agreed with that whole heartedly...He signed a card for a friend of mine and not only wrote his name but PERSONALIZED THE CARD!!! He was incredibly gracious and nice....J and I gave him "Mickey" ears from Disney with Merry on one pair and Pippin on the other, he LOVED them....we told him that he'd see Billy before we will and his comment was "I'll see him in a couple of weeks" :GRIN: and he was all smiley about it --Fan report from a Best Buy Rotk DVD signing in LA, May 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Best prank: Billy said he thought it was the prank played upon himself and Dom in retribution for all the pranks they'd pulled on other people. Barrie Osborne's assistant Tanya came up with the idea. Every day there were new script pages, and at one point they were out on location and driving to another location, just him and Dom in the car. Just before they left they'd been given these new pages, completely official looking, brought around by courier, the whole nine yards. In this revision, Merry and Pippin climb up Treebeard just as before, but they fall through his branches and by the time they get to the ground, all their clothes have been torn off. Pippin says, "That's weird. Do you feel cold?" And Merry replies, "Yes. Hold me!" But the thing was, they had been discussing trying to add more humor to the Treebeard stuff at just that point in the shooting, and the pages looked so official that it took them two days to figure out for sure that they'd been had, and even then it took someone admitting that it was a scam. They would be driving along and talking about it, how Dom had been wearing this fat suit for Merry in the first two movies and how they wondered how they were going to manage the nakedness considering that, were they going to have a prosthetic body for him or something? --fearlessdiva's Comic-Con report, July 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Later Dom came over to Billeh where he was signing autographs ... She said they were completely oblivious to all the people they were so focused on each other... and when they hugged good-bye it was the sweetest thing she ever saw. --boobie_tassels's Comic-Con report, July 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rua: Okay. I was supposed to also mention to you [Billy], something about; whats your favorite ice cream? `Cause it had something to do about locking Dom in the closet? Boyd: Oh, yeah! Well, that day, I just wanted vanilla, just plain vanilla, and he brought me back macadamia nut. I didnt want that. So, he got locked in the cupboard. Wenham: I donno, I think he was being too kind. --Nevermore Magazine Comic-Con report, August 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When asked about his and Billys movie script, he said hes really excited. He and Billy are going to make a comedy that, for once, wont star Ben Stiller or Owen Wilson, who always manage to get all the good material. He confirmed that he WILL be in the movie, AND, if it works out, Elijah, Viggo, and Orlando will all make cameos (!!). At this point, he started going really into depth about his relationship with Billy. I cant, for the life of me, remember exactly what he said, but he talked for a while, something about how theyre both kindred spirits, got along from the start, and have the same aspirations in life. The entire time he talked about it, he had this far-away, dreamy look in his eyes. --dizzyhobbit's report from a Dom interview in August 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The friendship that developed between Dom and Billy transcends description in any book I could ever write. --Sean Astin in his autobiographical There and Back Again: An Actor's Tale, published October 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Did You know that Billy [Boyd] and Dom [Monaghan] were homosexual lovers for most of the filming? Apparently, at a millennium party in Wellington, they "discovered" each other. The noise was, allegedly, horrendous. They do spend rather a lot of screen time missing each other and emoting. Good luck to them, I say. -- Bernard Hill (Thoden) in Premiere, November 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Billy: We had a great time in Berlin. I remember there was a big sort of balcony where we sort of came out and waved to everyone. Yeah, it was great. We had a lot of fun and it was Dom's birthday and I went out and bought him a really cool camera which I think he's lost but he's not telling me. We had a great time. And Dom was really excited because that's where he was born, so he showed everyone around but nobody likes him so we didn't go! --Ian Smith's transcript of Billy at Ring Con, November 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Monaghan: Yes, Billy's been seeing the same girl now for about three years, which is terribly heartbreaking to me. No more long winter nights together like we used to. No, that's not true. --TV Guide, December 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Monaghan learned to surf in New Zealand while filming the Rings trilogy. But his ultimate wave came this past New Year's Eve, when he went surfing with fellow hobbit Billy Boyd. After catching a big one, he shot to the top, only to realize the water behind him was about to collapse on him. "For about three seconds," he says, "I was surrounded by cascading silent walls of water -- then I shook the spray from my face and emerged on the other side, ten feet taller." Boyd saw the whole thing happen but doesn't want to give Monaghan too much credit. "His surfing's all style and no substance," he says. "I'm a better surfer, by about a million." He laughs. "Make sure you print that -- it'll piss him off." The Rings cast members pledged they would keep getting together annually. That hasn't happened, but Boyd and Monaghan have remained close. Boyd reports, "Dom's really good about letting you stay at his house, but when you're trying to watch a movie, he does insist on walking around the house in the nude and making cereal." --Rolling Stone, January 2005 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Dom] said he was now the proud owner of a Prius ... Then he said he actually bumped the Prius. He said it's like when you get new trainers and you try not to get them scuffed, then after the first scuff you're like, "Aww," and he mimicked kicking things. Then he said it was totally Billy's fault he bumped the Prius. Billy was gabbing on about something and Dom didn't look back. ... Next someone asked [Billy] his favorite scene to act in. He said, again, it's when Pippin finds Merry on the battlefield. He said, "Me and Dom are really close, and the scene reflects our friendship. I wouldn't want to find him on a real battlefield." ... [Directly after sharing a massive hug with Billy onstage] Dom stepped up to the mic afterward and said, "I'm sorry, it's just we haven't seen each other in a couple of hours." --water_vole's ORC report, January 2005 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yes, the hug was beyond amazing, absofuckinglutely amazing, but you of all people need to know that, during Dom's panel, when he talked about Billy, his entire body language changed. He was much calmer than I've seen him in interviews anyway, more thoughtful, less the cheeky hobbit persona he seems to enjoy. But when he spoke about Billy (whom he almost always referred to as "Bill"), he relaxed even more. He didn't beam, but wore a gentle smile. His voice seemed a bit lower to me, as if simply talking about Billy relaxed him. At some point, he said that Billy was just happy, that he wasn't working to become happy or satisfied, he just was, and that meant that the people around Billy were happy, too. And Dom was. I saw it with my own eyes. --mirabile_dictu's ORC report, January 2005 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There is no way to really describe how Dom gets when he talks about Billy. The rhythm in his voice changes. The pitch of his voice changes. His smile shifts, becomes something softer, something more personal. It's like touching some button inside him that immediately plays back all his happiest memories. I think Billy is one of the people he feels most comfortable with, and when he can talk about Billy, he slips into that place. He talked about how Billy is such a role model for him. He lives his life without regret and doesn't try to be happy because he is always naturally happy. He said that while he, Billy, Elijah, Shox (and friends, I assume) were down in Hawaii for the holidays, they did the "girly, metrosexual thing" and sat around a table talking about what they like most about each other. Billy's happiness is what Dom said he brought up. He talked about how funny Billy was, especially if you got a few drinks in him. He gave this gorgeous laughing grin when he said it that made me wibble. There was this pause, where he just gave a sheepish smile and then added, "And we're going to get married." Pause. "Not really." Pause. "Well, maybe." ... - he called Billy "adorable", "handsome", and "cute" more than once --beizy's ORC report, January 2005 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I had my Billy and Dom looking so lovely pic and my Lost Poster for Dom to sign. I totally bought another auto ticket since I couldn't decide. So first, I gave him the poster. The guy sitting next to Dom asked me where I got it and I said a friend, but I couldn't remember the event. He totally accused me of stealing it off the back of a truck and I said, "No, I am all about the love." So Dom signed it (looking harried and generally rushed, poor man) and then I gave him the Dom and Billy pic. Dom said, "Billy is so handsome, isn't he?" He was kinda wistful and loving and I totally died but managed to agree with him. And then when I told him about what Dom had said, Billy said, "He does that. He likes me." He said it in the most adorable voice ever and yeah, it was so lovely. ... Then the guy next to him tells him that Dom totally signed over the majority of the picture and that he will have to squeeze his signature in. "Rude Bastard" was Billy's response to that. ... Also said that he has a new car (Prius, hippy boy) and that he recently got it "bumped" over the holidays when Billy was sitting next to him talking his ear off or distracting him or something. LOVE!!! He also weighed in on the boxers/briefs issue ("I don't believe in underwear, stifles a man's creativity." SWOON) and said that Billy wears his underwear up to here (pointing to above his nipples) saying that it must keep him warm. --jillybinks' ORC report, January 2005 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Throughout this whole thing, I did quite a bit of chatting with Billy as well because he also started asking what colour pen to use. At one point I looked over, and Billy was in the middle of signing "Dom". "You're Billy." I reminded him. "Shite, I am! I'm not Dom, bloody 'ell! What do I write now?" "Bites?" I'm evil. I don't remember if he ended up writing bites or something else, but yeah. It was funny. You know you spend too much time with someone when you start signing their name. --echoharmony's ORC report, January 2005 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q: The most memorable NZ location? A: Methven (Edoras). Talked about getting up in the dark and driving there and watching the sun rise over Edoras. They did a lot of really amazing location work, but that was the best. .... It was like a fully functioning fortress, lock it and, and you wouldn't be able to get in, with those high towers. He started talking about being there, how he and Billy were there for indoor shots if the weather got bad, but it never did. He had three days of work and Billy had none, so they watched Laurel & Hardy, and Flipper, which he hadn't seen [big laugh]. Something about Elijah's looks and how he'd get in trouble for that one. ... They spent 10 days in a house doing nothing in a house - watching movies, hanging out, trying to write this script, [applause] having fun. ... Q: do you want to do comedy? A: I really want to ... you have to be really careful ... it seems to be a slightly cheaper version of acting. He compared the prestige of Peter Sellers who didn't get credit compared to someone like Robert Di Niro. [so] Yes. ... I have to choose the right vehicle. ... If i'm going to do comedy, I'm going to do comedy with Bill. ... Q: The most meaningful person in your life? A: Hmmm, ahh, [thinks], Well I think probably the most influential and most beneficial person that I've met would be Billy. ... Billy is like a real example, the way he lives his life is a great example. Even though he doesn't look it, he's almost ten years older than me. ... [some happy blather here] He actually set on the table on New Year's Eve, in a very metrosexual fashion, we were all talking about the greatest things about each other. [I think he said Elijah was there too]. The best thing about Billy is that he's not on his way to being happy, he is happy. ... He's funny as hell. --msilverstar's ORC report, January 2005 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- And finally, because this deserves its own special recognition, that article, the best Dom/Billy interview ever, the one every Dom/Billy fangirl knows practically by heart, in which Dom lists his 18 favorite things about Billy: LET ME GO AHEAD AND ASK YOU THE QUESTION THAT BILLY WANTED US TO ASK YOU. HE'D LIKE TO KNOW YOUR 18 FAVOURITE THINGS ABOUT HIM. My 18 favorite things? Okay. #1 - The space between his nose and his lip. I think it's called the filtrum. That's f-i-l-t-r-u-m. Billy's got a fantastic filtrum. You know how babies have that very cute, sweet little filtrum? Billy's got the exact same thing! So that would be my #1 favorite thing about Billy. (aside) He's telling me now what to say now, but I'm not going to! #2 - Very small, dainty hands and feet, which makes him very dexterous; anything that he does with his hands is always very precise. #3 - Quite big biceps for such a small man. Big strong arms. #4 - Funny. #5 - His hair. There's something very interesting with his hair. When he's in a good mood, he spikes it all up, so he looks like a complete lunatic. #6 - His voice ... very good. #7 He's got quite enchanting eyes. You know how it is with the eclipse? If you keep looking at it for a certain amount of time, you can't stop - you have to keep looking at it. That's like Billy's eyes - if you look at them for more than 20 or 30 seconds, then you're hooked. There have been a couple of times in bars where I've had to actually pull girls away, so they'd stop looking at his eyes ... (otherwise) you'll be there for the rest of your life! #8 - I really liked the smell of his car when we were in New Zealand, because we used to keep our surfboards in there, and his car just absolutely reeked of rotting wetsuits and sand and protein shakes. Billy didn't care about that. #9 - He got me into a couple of bands I really liked. #10 - Choice of movies. He's got a very good taste in films. #11 - Oh, here's another good thing about Billy: If you're ever in a restaurant where you've never been before, Billy will always pick the restaurant's main meal - the one that they do the best. No matter what it is, he'll always go for it. #12 - Fear of heights. Billy's got a great fear of heights that he just doesn't question. I'm very scared of heights too, and when we went to this bungee jump, I said to him, "We're going to conquer our fear of heights. Come on, that's what we'll do. We'll do a bungee jump, and then you can always say you did it." And Billy was like, "No. I'm afraid of heights, and that's what I'm sticking to." I like that! #13 - Sleeps like a dormouse at any opportunity. If Billy's given 25 minutes to sleep, he'll do it. Whereas if I'm given 25 minutes to sleep, I'll run off and get a drink, go and call someone, play with my Playstation ... do 50 million things at the same time and get frustrated. #14 - Good surfer. He's my main surfing buddy, which is always a good thing. He's also my scuba-diving buddy and my kayaking and canoeing partner. So we have a great relationship both in and out of the water. #15 - Always shares his food. When we're in a restaurant, Billy will always say, "Try this!" #16 - We enjoy drinking pretty much the same amount, which is nice. If you're going to spend a year and a half with someone, it's good if you drink on the same level! Billy and I can keep up with each other, which is essential. #17 - I love the fact that he choose 17 favorite things because he knew I could only think of 16! ACTUALLY, IT'S 18. Oh, really. (Boyd is heard giggling loudly) My 18th one is ... let me think. Oh - the fact that he always leaves his sunglasses everywhere. While I've been with him, he's probably lost about seven or eight pairs. In New Zealand, he'd just leave them on caf tables. What I used to do is just pick them up automatically, and a couple of hours later, he'd say, "Oh, shit! I left my sunglasses!" I'd say, "No, Billy ... here you go." That was my job: picking up sunglasses. YOU REALLY ARE LIKE AN OLD MARRIED COUPLE. YOU KNOW EACH OTHER SO WELL ... We kind of are! There are a lot of gay rumors rife on the internet. I REALLY DIDN'T MEAN IT THAT WAY! Well, (there are rumors)! We spend so much time together. We enjoy each other's company. We're constantly walking up and down the red carpet with an arm around each other and chatting and all that kind of stuff. So the rumors are rife! There was also a rumor about Elijah and me that Ian McKellen told us about - we were having an affair in L.A.! But you know, I'm not going to confirm or deny! (laughs) (Billy and I) do fit like a jigsaw. Still now, three or four years down the line of knowing each other, we'll manage to make each other crack up in tears of laughter ... and fascinate each other, which is (the perfect) relationship. Maybe we will get married in a couple of years! If he was a girl, I'd marry him today! I've been suggesting to Billy a sex change, but he really feels quite manly about things. (Boyd shouts, "I love women!") Yes, he's very passionate about women, as I am. You know what else is interesting? Even though we spend so much time together, and we went to the same bars, we tended not to fight over women. Billy has a girlfriend right now and has for a while, but when we were single in New Zealand, we never really chased after the same women. Billy liked girls that looked a little bit different (than the ones I liked), and we always gave each other quite a wide berth. Besides, I can't compete with Billy for a woman because he has that incredible mind ... (pauses) But I also have that incredible body! Thinking about both of us ... I mean there must be a few girls out there who would think that the combination of Billy and Dom must be like a dream! It's like putting Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise together, you know. --LotR Fanclub Magazine, June/July 2003 We were 10, 12 hours up in that tree,(looks at Dom) KISSING

Face it, you're Addicted to Boyd (25001- and up) Posts: 32977 01/07/06 13:04:19 Administrator Keeper of Billy's scruff, his magnificent hairy chest, rosebud lips & manly sideburns	We put Billy Boyd and Dominic Monaghan in the same room; we put a tape recorder on the table and pressed record. When two hobbits interview each other, you might end up learning more than youd bargained for. Billy Hello, Dominic. Dom Hello, Bill. Billy Welcome at Premieres... Dom I meant to ask you... Billy What? Dom ... When was your biggest drinking session during filming? Billy Im a very shy drunk. Dom I understand. Can I tell the answer for you, then? Billy Nah, thatll do, thank you. Dom What has changed in your life since your work on Lord of the Rings, and what dont you like about these changes? Besides your weight. Billy Nothing, as a matter of fact. But if youre asking, it must mean there are things that upset you, then? Dom Ive lost touch with some friends I would have liked to keep in touch with Billy Call them! Dom Yeah, but its kinda weird, you know? Im going to call and theyre going to answer: "Great. Whos calling?" Right, so, given all the people youve met through all this, who were you most excited about meeting? Billy Ian Holm, that was nice. Hes always been one of my favourite actors and it was kind of wild to find myself in the seat next to his in makeup. What about you? Dom I met Robin Williams briefly the other night, thats crazy, no? It was during that charity event for the Philip Seymour Hoffman theatrical company. Billy We played charades with Edward Norton. Very nice. Who won the most pool games, you or me? Dom Thats a very difficult question youre asking there Billy Im asking you, honestly. Dom ... Whats your favourite colour? Billy Blue. Dom Ok, if we like try and calculate an average, I think its you. Billy youll make sure to print that, thank you. Dom I think what with the importance of the whole shoot, I had to reconsider my priorities. It seemed more important to you, anyway. Billy Elijah really really sucked at pool. And footie. Dom He cant seem to be able to take all the angles into account. Something to do with his eyes, I think. Billy Unbelievable. Hes got the biggest eyes in the whole wide world, and they dont work very well. What a shame. Imagine if they were 100% functional, hed be able to see flies 500 yards away. Dom Kind of like a superhero. Billy Eye-Man! Dom Its such a shame that he cant see a thing! Billy Which place did you most like visiting during filming? Dom Thailand, when we went there for a few days break with Orlando. The beach, drinking from coconuts and all that Billy The only problem was we werent allowed to stay in the sun too long. If wed gotten back with a nice tan, imagine the hell wed have gotten from makeup. Dom We also visited the Star Wars shoot. Nice people. Billy We had dinner with Princess Amidabi. Dom Amidala. Billy Thats what I said. Dom If you were elected King of Scotland, what changes would you make? Billy Many changes. We need more filming studios in Scotland. And Id make sure everybody could go to school for free. Hows that for you? Dom Youve got my vote. Have you ever hurt a fellow actor? Billy Probably. Let me think One day, I didnt see him arrive and I hit Sala Baker on the head with my sword. Thank goodness hes got a head as hard as cement; I could have split his head in two. I could have killed him! I was surprised he didnt hit me back. Kind of a big fellow. Dom After 5 weeks of filming, you could have killed Sauron. That would have made for a shorter film. Billy I would have stolen the ring and used its ability to make you invisible to go spy on the girls in their dressing rooms. Dom Brilliant! Finally be able to see what Cate Blanchet does! Billy What do you mean? Dom Nothing. Billy Exactly. Lets see, what would you do if you had the ring and could be invisible? Dom Id go to a lingerie store and hang around the changing rooms. Billy Thats what youd do, ogle naked women? Dom And then, we could go to the White House and really see whats going on in there. If someone offered you either a wingless parrot or a legless dog, which one would you take? Billy The parrot. Dom Why? Billy It wouldnt be as sad as the legless dog. Dom And what would you call it? Billy Wing-a-ding-ding. Dom If you could go live on any planet you wanted, which one would you go to? Billy Saturn. Dom The rings, of course. Billy You? Dom Pluto. To be as far away from you as possible. Billy Thank you, Dominic. We were 10, 12 hours up in that tree,(looks at Dom) KISSING

Face it, you're Addicted to Boyd (25001- and up) Posts: 32977 01/07/06 13:15:14 Administrator Keeper of Billy's scruff, his magnificent hairy chest, rosebud lips & manly sideburns	Dom: You do get those kind of weird shaky people, I like them. And when you hold them theyre always kind of hot. Billy To Dominic) I would approach you if I were a little girl. Id be all shaky and hot. Id give you a lollipop. Boyd stresses the most important thing to know about him is his strong distaste for cinnamon. "I hate cinnamon. In fact, it has made me physically ill on occasion." I got paid for acting and I got nothing from the kiss but a cold sore. [laughs] What is the biggest misconception of you as an actor? Probably that I'm a really nice guy, but I'm really the devil. [laughs] "If you could design the Pippin action figure, what features would you give it?" BB: "Mmmm, this is an exciting question! I'd like to make it a toy that remembers what's in your house and if you brought in any new things it would be be inquisitive about them and be drawn in. So if you brought in a new DVD it would wander over and start unwrapping it! Maybe if you brought in mushrooms it would eat them all, smoke your pipe, that sort of thing." "If you could have played another character from LOTR, who would it be?" BB: "I'd like to be Arwen as she gets to lie down quite a bit and wear great dresses. BILLY BOYD: A guy goes into a pub with an Emu and a cat... Do you know it? QUINT: Nope. BILLY BOYD: He says, "Two pints of lager..." He says to the cat, "What do you want?" The cat says, "I'm not payin' for it." He says, "I'm not asking you to pay for it. I'm gonna get it. What do you want?" The cat says, "I'm not payin' for it." He says, "It's all right. I'm going to buy it. What do you want?" Cat says, "Pint o' lager, but I'm not payin' for it." (To the bartender) "Three pints of lager." They drink that. He gets back up and says, "So, is that gonna be the same again?" The cat goes, "I'm not payin' for it." He says, "I'm buying the drinks!" "I'm not payin' for it!" This goes on. Four times it happens. Then the barman says, "What is this? What're you doing with an Emu and a cat?" He says, "Long story... Anyway, I get these three wishes. I met a genie, he gave me three wishes. I said, 'You see the big house in the hills? I'd love that. I've always looked at it and I'd love to have that.' The genie PSSHHHH... He's sittin' in the house, servants all around. He says, 'Next, I better have money to make sure I keep the house... Um... 10 million dollars.' PSHHHH Bankbook... $10 million." The barman says, "But this isn't..." He says, "Yeah, yeah... Third wish. 'I want a big tall bird with long legs and a wee tight pussy!'" (laughs) National Post: Billy, you starred in Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World. What was it like? Dom: Last night I was congratulated on Master and Commander. They said, "I very much enjoyed Master and Commander." I said, "So did I." I've been asked to sign pictures of Billy. I was asked by a Japanese journalist, what is the melody of your character. Billy: What do you say to that? Dom: G sharp. Billy: The happiest of all keys. National Post: Dominic, I understand you studied martial arts for an upcoming film. [Billy punche
