...Why is Elijah Wood suddenly all over my front page?

[–]Cormorrant 56 points57 points ago

There's two of them: Elijah Woods. Plural.

[–]lackofbrain 165 points166 points ago

Elijah Forest

[–]Garrosh 12 points13 points ago

Elijan Forest™.

[–]kileel 5 points6 points ago

Although for English redditors, Elijah Wood is a perfectly acceptable phrase for a forest of Elijahs.

[–]lackofbrain 1 point2 points ago

Yes it is, but and I also toyed with Elijah Copse, but Forest seemed like the clearest joke

[–]ultrastoat 1 point2 points ago

I think with only two trees it's be an Elijah Thicket.

[–]Pulpcowboy -4 points-3 points ago

OMG we need somone to photoshop a bunch of pictures of elijah wood together standing around nature!!!

[–]Possum_Pendulum 10 points11 points ago

Well that just sound like a terrible idea.

[–]sahnd 11 points12 points ago

What if it's like pluralizing so-and-so general? Elijahs Wood? On second thought, nevermind. That's an errant apostrophe away from something completely off-topic.

[–]ukiyoe 18 points19 points ago

ALL ABOARD!

[–]xLuMisx 24 points25 points ago

CHOO CHOO MOTHER FUCKERS

[–]obviousAstostupidQs 7 points8 points ago

Because karma.

[–]Poppa_Mo 1 point2 points ago

Same, except I was thinking "Why is everyone all over Elijah's Wood?"

[–]Rapejelly 2 points3 points ago

Because Elijah Wood is a bawssss

[–]SelectiveOCD 1 point2 points ago

Where else? I adore this man but only saw this post today.

[–]subway28 0 points1 point ago

Samanthakm9 is also all over the front page.

[–]Cabron53 0 points1 point ago

She must have the ring.....of the front page

[–]Rohan21166 0 points1 point ago

I'm subscribed to /r/TheHobbit and /r/lotr

So I'm used to it.

[–]Simerty 146 points147 points ago

That camera isn't even on...

[–]TheAtomicPlayboy 284 points285 points ago

Don't worry, someone else took a picture of him taking a picture of himself standing in front of a picture of himself.

[–]NotaMethAddict 188 points189 points ago

Reminds me of the meta picture.

[–]Sadonyoriik 29 points30 points ago

That was awesome.

[–]Dildo_Ball_Baggins 49 points50 points ago

Look at this guy work his magic

[–]Mohaver11 9 points10 points ago

I... umm... wow.

[–]I_RAPE_PEOPLE_II 2 points3 points ago

Nostalgia man, I joined just a bit earlier.

[–]Pulviriza 1 point2 points ago

It was way before I joined, but I seem to recall seeing it not long after it happened.

[–]stferago 60 points61 points ago

One of the most epic threads ever to grace this website.

[–]jyapman 13 points14 points ago

i just read it and it blew my mind

[–]pascontent 7 points8 points ago

I remember that...it was indeed flabberghasting.

[–]Aint_got_no_agua 2 points3 points ago

Remember back in middle school we used to go flabberghasting down at the rec center and try to impress the girls?

[–]NotEntirelyUnlike 0 points1 point ago

Hell yeah! We used to have em try and top that!

[–]MrGrumpet 0 points1 point ago

No.

[–]WallyAnti 6 points7 points ago

I always thought it was peculiar that he even added the little easter egg of changing the position of the rubik's cube in each shot.

[–]lydocia 4 points5 points ago

That was amazing, thanks for sharing this. I hadn't seen it, and it exploded my brain and made me WTF for a second. :)

[–]ukiyoe 1 point2 points ago

I saw this a while back and forgot where it was. Thank you.

[–]NedDasty 0 points1 point ago

Haha, I remember this. I love it!

[–]PirateLordBush 1 point2 points ago

That is wrinkling my brain.

[–]CraigChrist 0 points1 point ago

It's really mind-bottling

[–]lookingchris -1 points0 points ago

It was actually him what took this picture, weren't it?

[–]cassandradc -2 points-1 points ago

Came here to say this.

[–]l0ck3dTarg3t -3 points-2 points ago

pic-ception. :D

[–]a_can_of_solo 17 points18 points ago

they didn't always used to have the screen on, see it's got an optical view finder.

[–]starlinguk 5 points6 points ago

Yup, I tend to switch the screen off. Not as intrusive when it's darker and saves the battery.

[–]beanmiester 6 points7 points ago

Every digital camera I've had has had the option to turn off the screen to save batteries.

[–]Sanderlebau 2 points3 points ago

Wilfred took the batteries out to teach Ryan a valuable lesson, for some reason.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points ago

That camera isn't even from this century

[–]Shockers 0 points1 point ago

Thank you! That was my first thought too.

[–]Caspius 1 point2 points ago

I own the same camera, the display goes black for a few seconds after you take a picture.

[–]IvanTheOcean 1 point2 points ago

And from this decade...

[–]Simerty 2 points3 points ago

*or

[–]ParrotofDoom 21 points22 points ago

Wait, so Elijah Wood is actually shorter than Frodo Baggins?

[–]PaulMcGannsShoes 23 points24 points ago

it's forced perspective.

they're both actually 50 feet tall.

[–]Afrodaddy 12 points13 points ago

I like his suit

[–]onemoreclick 6 points7 points ago

It looks a little mafia boss.

[–]missalissa15 41 points42 points ago

I think that camera is an indication of how old this picture is.

[–]NotaMethAddict 49 points50 points ago

About 9 months.

[–]missalissa15 23 points24 points ago

touche

[–]LeonProfessional 3 points4 points ago

Well, just because the picture was posted 9 months ago doesn't mean it was taken 9 months ago...

[–]therealgaloosh 18 points19 points ago

What's Frodo doing nowadays anyway? Is he still doing that weird ass TV show with the man in a dog suit?

[–]j0nno 21 points22 points ago

Wilfred. Yes. On FX

[–]wabbajackoff 27 points28 points ago

God I love that show.

[–]IHaveHerpes 3 points4 points ago

Doing a montage with Dace Hall Days makes it even better

[–]Scotty2cky 8 points9 points ago

And some voice acting for Red vs Blue.

[–]sleenkey 2 points3 points ago

Wilfred ownz ..

[–]Salchicha 10 points11 points ago

He's so damn attractive!

[–]cam-t 5 points6 points ago

Hey actually, TLOTR came out in 2001, so if the photo is from that premiere, that seems pretty standard for compact digitals back then. I know mine looked like that.

[–]Svennusmax 40 points41 points ago

Daniël Radcliffe is a funny dude. But didn't Harry wear glasses in the movies?

[–]PaulMcGannsShoes 9 points10 points ago

ohyou.jpg

[–]gregorkafka 7 points8 points ago

Not a self-portrait, he's clearly posing with Wilfred.

[–]idzr 12 points13 points ago

...from 1998.

[–]omg_bbq 0 points1 point ago

me what

[–]NotaMethAddict 11 points12 points ago

I wonder which comment will fare better?

"Photoception," or "so I heard you like Elijah Wood"

[–]TheAtomicPlayboy 33 points34 points ago

My money's on "Got Wood?"

[–]Squishumz 10 points11 points ago

Admirably stolen from the top comment of the last thread.

[–]NotaMethAddict 13 points14 points ago

Well, Elijah does give me wood. No homo. Maybe a little homo.

[–]Pattar 3 points4 points ago

I legit enjoy him as an actor.

[–]oliviach -1 points0 points ago

Now he needs to take a picture in front of this picture..

[–][deleted] ago

[deleted]

[–]Antrikshy 1 point2 points ago

Very.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

One looks more wooden than the other.

[–]oonzboonz 0 points1 point ago

You'd think he would be able to afford a camera made this side of the millenium.

[–]cam-t 1 point2 points ago

Will Elijah Wood appear in The Hobbit films?

[–]hhannu -1 points0 points ago

Yes. I guess that is why he is all over the front page all of a sudden.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

This photo better be old because that camera is ancient.

[–]Aint_got_no_agua 1 point2 points ago

Hey those two guys look a lot a alike!

[–]virtyy 1 point2 points ago

This is a picture of himself taking a picture of himself with a picture of himself.

[–]erykthebat 0 points1 point ago

now kiiiiiis!

[–]KickinInShangers 1 point2 points ago

This man become more and more awesome every time I see him do something. Eating a burrito? Awesome. Walking down the street... Awesome.

[–]redhonkey34 1 point2 points ago

Taking a picture of Elijah Wood, taking a picture of himself in front of a picture of himself...Nice.

[–]mvanoort 1 point2 points ago

Got Wood?

[–]snoogins1 0 points1 point ago

In the latest episode of Wilfred I was hoping he would say he would go to comic con as Frodo, instead he went with harry potter

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Wow, that would have been the greatest thing ever. Relative to TV of course.

[–]mmz9567 0 points1 point ago

inception

[–]Pyryara 0 points1 point ago

If only I could be so grossly incandescent...

[–]ZiggyOnMars 0 points1 point ago

Commemorate his entire career.

[–]Schokifix 0 points1 point ago

so someone took a picture of him taking a picture in front of a picture of him?

[–]Nurger 0 points1 point ago

[–]ColoBB 0 points1 point ago

[–]cosmophilic 0 points1 point ago

I like that those kids turned out to be pretty classy.

[–]still_on_reddit 0 points1 point ago

A picture of a man taking a picture in front of a picture of a movie that he is in.

[–]homohominilupus 1 point2 points ago

LE HOBBIT WILL BE AWESOME.

[–]Zanizelli 1 point2 points ago

He's so cute, it makes ms want to vomit rainbows and shit kittens every time I see him.

[–]Hirocheema 0 points1 point ago

I can't decide if I hate this or not.

[–]razasoop 0 points1 point ago

Elijah Wood has the nicest skin.

[–]DoktorDoktor 0 points1 point ago

Why is Daniel Radcliffe taking a picture of himself with Elijah Wood?

[–]grapejellysucks 0 points1 point ago

I don't give a shit what you ppl think. I love this guy.

[–]crazycatlady45 0 points1 point ago

Is anyone else completely obsessed with him?

[–]TheLastCzar 0 points1 point ago

A picture of Frodo taking a picture of Frodo with a picture of Frodo, sweet!

[–]a-grey-fox 0 points1 point ago

meta-self portrait.

[–]IntensePancakes 0 points1 point ago

At first I was confused because those do not look like the same two people.

[–]durntdehpirate 0 points1 point ago

There is so much meta in this picture it's not even funny.

[–]hikingmetalhead 0 points1 point ago

Elijah Wood do that.

[–]darkaxe 1 point2 points ago

Elijah Wood is so fucking cool.

[–]mammalsauce 0 points1 point ago

HAHA oh wow. this guy is hilarious.

[–]Sock1122 0 points1 point ago

"Yo Dawg, I heard you like having your picture taken, so I took a picture of you taking a picture of yourself in front of one of your pictures."

[–]jimbol 0 points1 point ago

Remember when digital cameras were all big and silver? Good times.

[–]jimbol 0 points1 point ago

I just realized that silver is the new beige!

[–]gozzz 0 points1 point ago

I just got the sudden urge to look to see if Wilfred is airing again.

[–]32BitWhore 0 points1 point ago

Oh Elijah, you so crazy. No, seriously, I think he has borderline personality disorder or something.

[–]lookingchris 0 points1 point ago

I am apparently very thick - thought this was some random schmoe taking a picture with an Elijah Wood portrait, until I came back to it later.

[–]CaptainKrunch64 0 points1 point ago

I think Elijah Wood would look hotter if he kept his Frodo hair, and I'm supposedly a straight man...

[–]sister-fister 0 points1 point ago

YOU. FOR YOUR PART IN MAKING FRODO BAGGINS LOOK LIKE A BITCH, I WILL PERSONALLY DEAL WITH YOU LATER.

[–]commandakeen 0 points1 point ago

They could be brothers!

[–]hero0fwar 0 points1 point ago

Vigo the Carpathian

more photoshops in /r/photoshopbattles

[–]aazav 0 points1 point ago

Actually, someone's taking a photo of him taking a self portrait photo.

[–]robotwholearned88 0 points1 point ago

Does any one else wonder about the archaic camera he is using? Where did he even find that? *edit:typing

[–]towmeaway 0 points1 point ago

From the thumbnail I thought it was PeeWee Herman.

[–]dameey 0 points1 point ago

I had a dream I fell in love with Elijah, never was really into him until my dream. Damn reddit.

[–]coffeedrinking 1 point2 points ago

When I was 15, I dreamed I was dating Elijah Wood. But I had to break up with him because I felt ashamed that I couldn't buy him nice things like the things he got me. I didn't have a superstar job so I broke up with him. It was a sad dream.

[–]ERF_JMM 0 points1 point ago

So ummm .... the camera's off.

[–]bionui123 0 points1 point ago

Peewee?

[–]RustyEight 0 points1 point ago

So just to clarify, this is a picture of Elijah Wood taking a picture of Elijah Wood near a picture of Elijah Wood.

[–]Patchworkparamedic 1 point2 points ago

No matter how much I watch Wilfred, he will always be Frodo.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Jesus, look at that camera. When was this, 2003?

[–]Ostylee 0 points1 point ago

Why does he have such a shitty camera?

[–]SarkastikAmbassador -1 points0 points ago

YO DAWG I HEARD YOU LIKE PICTURES OF YOURSELF, SO HERE'S A PICTURE OF YOU TAKING A PICTURE OF YOURSELF IN FRONT OF A PICTURE OF YOURSELF!

[–]MauiWowieOwie -2 points-1 points ago

Wilfred blows.

[–]nixon007 -4 points-3 points ago

that shitty camera considering the millions he made in that flick

[–]Phoenixx777 0 points1 point ago

As a person who shares his name, stop saying my name.

[–]LacksRethics 0 points1 point ago

Watched Sin City tonight.

He's a slippery little Yahweh praising hooker eating bastard.
