hmmm......that might've made it hard to cast him! 
now that i think about it, he would've been pretty good. i can remmeber him from some movies from WAY back when....

I think Sir Ian portrayed Gandalf well and Christopher Lee was just awesome as Saruman.

Lol, Elijah Wood was just embarrasing. Cast Clive Owen or Hugh Jackman instead. Or atleast someone with balls!!

I can't even remember if I ever posted on this topic... but...
I personally don't have any problems with the LOTR cast, I think they all did a wonderful job. And Elijah Wood really surprised me (sorry Sam, hehehe). 
But on the side... several years ago, long before they had even planned to make the LOTR movies, I was sometimes thinking about how a movie made after the LOTR books would look like. And I remember I thought: I want to see Mel Gibson as Aragorn! (Okay, I had just seen Braveheart). BTW what do you think? Do you think he could have pulled it off?
Nowadays I can't imagine another Aragorn but Viggo, of course. He was awesome.  |
