PCornett Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 OK, so its just general chit chat but who is your fav blacksmith from the movies and I will give you a list of a few to start out with. I hope to see more added to the list as time goes on. Army of Darkness - The Blacksmith Kingdom of Heaven - Balion Iron Man - Tony Stark Pirates of the Carribean - Will Turner (Also played by Orlando Bloom, see Kingdom of Heaven) I havent decided my fav yet either so look forward to see what people suggest.

dlynn Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 I think I would have to go with Kate from A Knight's Tale. Let's face it, Blacksmith chic's are Hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Kate's good. Too bad the producers don't know anything about forging and too stupid to ask. Couldn't believe they had an anvil 5 feet off of the ground for her to hammer on. I also like the one in Fly Away Home. Forged out a really big dragon. Plus it's modern day. Also like the ones in Lord of the Rings. Scary, but powerful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don A Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 The guy in every Western who pulls a red horseshoe from the forge, quenches it 'til the steam comes up, then proceeds to beat on it cold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOblacksmith0530 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 @ Don A, ditto that one. I mean common sense says it's wrong even if you are not a blacksmith. But I have to agree with the rest Kate from a knights tale, blacksmith chics are cool/hot whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basher Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Gobber or Hiccup from how to train your dragon. some of the most realistic smithing scenes ever!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Torres Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Dragonslayer a great movie from the 80's had a cool blacksmith in it he forged a spear to kill a dragon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Shears Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Having just been shown "How to Train Your Dragon" by my daughter, I have to agree with basher about Gobber and Hiccup. Even down to the legendary lameness (of a sorts.) Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francis Trez Cole Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Highlander is an other one although its in the background in most of the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yetti Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Gobber or Hiccup from how to train your dragon. some of the most realistic smithing scenes ever!!! I have to agree, its portrayed well. How about Clint Eastwood in the mine scene from Fist Full Of Dollars. only other late model smith I can think of is Doc Brown from back to the future III. remember he became a blacksmith in the old west.

macbruce Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Burt Reynolds Feb. 11, 1936 Character: Quint Asper, Blacksmith Years on Gunsmoke: 1962 - 1965 (3 years) This guy didn't amount to much after gunsmoke as a blacksmith...... :lol: ..... He looked a little too clean cut for the part if you ask me.......Gunsmoke was my favorite show when I was a nipper.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCornett Posted April 24, 2012 Author Share Posted April 24, 2012 Again, I cant believe I forgot HIGHLANDER!! Really? Who didnt love seeing that movie, from the smithing scene to two grown men with car batteries attached to their swords!?!?!?!? I will have to go back and watch How to Tame Your Dragon again..

NoviceSmith15 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Definitely Gobber and Hiccup from How to Train Your Dragon--Knight's Tale is not my best-est movie. Also the Elves in Lord of the Rings--they act out a great example of using rocks for anvils! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KYBOY Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Gobber or Hiccup from how to train your dragon. some of the most realistic smithing scenes ever!!! You beat me too it..He even used a handled punch the correct way! I was really,really supprised that an animated movie got ti that right..

Roy Honcho Gregory Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 You know if you showed me that pix of Burt from Gun Smoke. I don't think I would know that was an I'm 57. My Dad, Brother, and myself watched that all the time. Sux gettin OLD....LOL Who am I ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bentiron1946 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 My least favorite is the dude who is always banging away on a cold horse shoe no matter what movie it is, drives me nuts! Also the latest ads on TV for some kind of liquid cheese in a skillet, yuck twice over!!! :wacko: :angry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monster Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 The movie Gunless revolves around a blacksmith and a gunfighter... Watched it a few times, good laugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
