10 Best Times The Lord Of The Rings Appeared In Other Movies

The coming-of-age, teen-pregnancy movie, Juno, was one of the most celebrated on-the-nose comedy-dramas of the 2000s. The film featured Michael Cera playing a blindsided and bewildered father-to-be. J.K. Simmons played a gruff but understanding grandfather-to-be. And, there was an indie-soundtrack, equals parts charming and heartwarming.

It was Elliot Page's humorous yet touching performance as a teenager - coming to terms with an unplanned pregnancy - that really won people over, though. Page's character was filled with witty one liners, sarcastic comments and devastatingly accurate assessments of the people she came into contact with.

This was a reference to poor old Samwise Gamgee, who was played by Sean Astin, made famous by his role in the Goonies (1985).
