I suspect it will annoy more people than it will please. Given the fact that they are making two films out of this little book, surely this time they won't miss huge chunks out, and if the have space to introduce Miss Nobody of Nowhere and do miss out ANYTHING I will be very DISPLEASED.

If they put her in a leather bikini like Guinevere in King Arthur, I am going to scream.

I haven 't seen any casting for Galion so I am afraid it will be hobbit needs to be saved by Elf-warriorette again. Billy Connolly is playing Dain. Wonder how many more unlikely cameos can be shoehorned in?

Billy Connolly as King Dain Ironfoot.................I think this will work. No doubt we will see The Iron Hills and the dwarves getting ready/marching to war when they get the message...

On his current form the dwarves would heckle him and he would stomp off half way through...

Speaking of Dwarves, why the heck do they need a burgler? They're armed to the teeth! In the book I thought they had kitchen knives or something? I don't think PJ can pull off that 'unlucky number' act with the dwarves he's made.

Not soft of foot though...

Well, it seems a logical choice, as Billy has had previous experience with dwarves (warning: profanity and politically incorrect terminology):
