I dunno, I always thought Aragorn was less filthy, greasy, and foul-smelling. One is compelled to wonder why Arwen doesn't make him go to the barber and take a shower.
I won't let Mortensen's political views bother me because when watching a film I assume that ALL the actors are brainless liberals, with the exception of Mel Gibson. But I do wish I didn't know that Gandalf is queer. I can't look at him anymore without imagining Gandalf using some boy in various ways too horrible to contemplate.
