However Richard Armitage... I might even go and see this misbegotten movie if it has Hugo Weaving and Richard Armitage. 
And I would love Bill Nighy to play Galion... I know I have said this before but noone does dissipation like him..save perhaps Richard E Grant... |
Oh yes! The film's full title shall be:
The Hobbit - There Will Be Drool.
I'm also holding out for Richard Wilson to voice Smaug as his is the voice I hear when I read the Dragon's words! I don't know, however, if he'd consider it too close to his role in
Merlin what with the talking dragon in that and everything...wasn't he also in that awful
Demons?
