So much work has gone into Lotr, and it shows. Thats partly why it is so believable. For example, Viggo slept in the wild in his costume, apparently slept with his horse at one point if I'm correct, and took his sword home every night. No wonder he's such a convincing Aragorn.<P>The wide variety of characters was great. And like Viggo, they all got into the part pretty darn well.<P>The locations were spectacular, and also contributed to making it so real. I mean, they built the whole of Edoras from scratch! Not everyone would go to the trouble of building such amazing sets, especially as there are so many locations.
