*looks @ Stuart pic and shudders* ughhh. I'm glad they cast Viggo. That picture looks like a caveman with moss stuck on his face. By the way, Vin Diesel as Aragorn would have made me want to kill.<BR>Sean Connery would have made an okay Gandalf but Ian McKellen is much closer to my imagination.<BR>Did someone say they almost cast Justin Timberlake as Legolas?!?! I wretch at the thought. *runs out of the room screaming and faints in horror*<P>On a side note, I think the reason that Lord of the Rings did so well was that they used so many little- or un- known actors (yes there are fairly big ones like Hugo Weaving and Ian McKellen and Christopher Lee but there weren't any Mel Gibsons or Tom Cruises) so no one got typecast or viewed as one of their former roles (Elrond excepted).
