Mods may want to consider two threads on this subject. One for legitimate speculation about this subject in a serious vein.

The other for the last few posts and their ilk.

Not sure. Do we have a category for Very Trivial Ancient History Which In The Greater Scheme Of Things Means Nothing?

Throw in Judi Densch as the voice of Smaug, and you've got a winner.
Oi! David Tennant could play anything and he'd be good

Who's Warwick Davis? What about Windsor Davies? Meh.

Warwick Davis - little professor Flitwick in the Harry Potter films (the midget music conductor), marvin the android in Hitchhiker's Guide (in the suit), and Wicket the Ewok in all the Star Wars films that had Ewoks in them.

Now we can't leave out Catherine Tate if we're going to have David. She'd be a smashing Galadriel, simply smashing. I bet she could do Arwen too; we'd see Arwen with an attitude like no one had ever imagined.

There will be Arwen and Galadriel, right, in a TH two parter? Have I got that right?

davem, I think the Legolas shield riding incident in the movie was actually supposed to be a reference to skateboarding, not surfing. Just be thankful PJ didn't include a half-pipe at the bottom of the ramp so we didn't have to see Legolas do any "lip tricks" with the shield. It was a dreadful possibility.
