What perhaps annoys me the most about this is that Aidan Turner is a brilliant actor and currently seen as quite cool and 'cult' in the SF geek world after his role as Mitchell in Being Human. If they have him do this kind of thing as Kili, he'll be ridiculed! Orlando Bloom has always been seen as a bit lightweight after playing Legolas in the way Jackson wrote him. Who could watch him in Pirates without thinking about Captain Obvious? I really don't want to see Aidan Turner to be viewed as some corny bit of fluff, because he's more than capable of playing dark and tormented characters.

Still, they can keep on coming with all of this nonsense and I'm always going to be excited about this film.
