Still wish I hadn't read this thread...

I know what you mean. I was working myself up to a grand swooning experience (as I only rarely have done, ever) for the TTT and Aragorn. It just can never be the same. The guy's a maroon.

Legolas is a handsome young chap, who reminds me way too much of my 15 yr old son. 8^)

BTW, I heard that VIGGOOO is possible to play the part of Jim Bowie in the Ron Howard film of 'The Alamo'. And I'm sure he will be good in it. He is a good ack-tor.

He has a great voice, but I thought when I first saw him in LOTR that he was a bit young for the role. (Tolkein's Aragorn was in his fifties). Then again, Frodo was too young (also in his fifties).

The disappointment has worn off. When we watched the Extended Version with the cast interview, DH was disappointed with the real live Liv. "Dingaling" he said, "Much prefer her as an elf." Goes to show that actors only create a role, they do not have the stature of the character.

Now that it looks like Peter Jackson will make hundreds of millions of dollars, will we get The Hobbit?
