Ok, and actor, who has already been paid for his work, has silly views, so I am supposed to boycott this movie because of it? Charlton Heston worked in movies with liberals. I am confused.. Should I still watch them because he is in them, or should their liberalism cancel that out?

I will be in line at 11:30 Tuesday night waiting to get into the midnight showing. If anybody seriously thinks that by not watching this movie, they are standing up for the war in Iraq, be my guest. This guy is an actor. I don't know if my mechanic, my banker, or my grocery clerk support Bush's policies in the gulf, I just care if they do their job.

Oye vey. I heard that the janitor at Krispy Kreme is not in favor of Fast Track Authority for NAFTA, I better go to Dunkin Donuts this morning...

He can have his silly views and I can watch him give a good performance as Aragorn and we can both go home happy. If I know anything about LOTR, the movie is going to send precisely the opposite view of his t-shirt - it will say to touse from your apathy, forgegoe appeasement, and fight evil before your neck of the woods is the next to be threatned. Also I'll get to see cool Ents and trolls.

Well stated.

Stop feeding actors' egos by treating their silly political and social opinions like they matter.

Still wish I hadn't read this thread...the LOTR movie was the single biggest pop-culture event of this quarter century. And I can't wait until December 18...I'll forget about Viggo (what kind of name is that, anyway) and only see Aragorn. The last role that the Viggo person played was a gigolo in a Gynneth Paltrow movie, so his time with LOTR may be his only hurrah.
