Hi all. I know people have mentioned it before, but I thought I'd come right out and ask:<P>I'm sure most of you have heard that David Bowie wanted to play the part of Elrond, but PJ wouldn't let him because he felt that Bowie would be too recognizable. I do agree with PJ on that point, but I also think that Bowie would have made an excellent Elrond, even better than Hugo. What do you all think?
