<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>And may I ask....Why did you pick SO Solid Crew?.......The Uruk- hai don't sound like them......and I doubt any Uruk- hai could produce a great song like 21 second <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>Totally. I would have had them as the Walford Orcs, or something. (Except that 21 seconds is a pile of bollocks )<P>I didn't notice the Men sounding particularly American. I thought Viggo's accent was almost Irish where he was trying to speak softly and the others were just good old RP English accents, probably the way Tolkien intended. <BR>Would the Rohirrim have had Scandinavian accents? Who knows.<P>I wonder if the speaking Orcs were British or all Kiwis? Hell, at least they didn't sound like Kiwis, that would have been a poor show!
