Fabulous. Elfen nugget. Kingly nugget. Lots of battles. Tying up of loose ends. (Don't worry, no spoilers.) It was worth the lack of sleep. I think... Kingly nugget would look a lot better if he'd carry around a little bit of shampoo with him. Then again, Legolas might murder him in his sleep if the kingly nugget had better hair.
Casting couch - I saw a thread somewhere about who you would cast in LOTR if you were in charge of casting. Given that they found at least 2 really hot actors that I hadn't really known about before, I think they did ok. But if I were in charge of casting, I think I'd have cast every hot male masterbatory fantasy guy I could think of. Brad Pitt as Legolas, George Clooney as Arwen's dad (no, I'm not taking the time to look up his name, but he was in the Matrix movies too - isn't that just hogging all the blockbuster trilogies to yourself???), Jake Gyllenhall as Frodo, Sean Connery as Gandalf (if it has to be someone with an older-guy sort of hotness). Harrison Ford as Theoden? Jack Nicholson (no, not for hotness) for sheer insane genius as Denethor (or maybe Christopher Walken?) Russell Crowe as Boromir. I'm sure there are hot guys I'm leaving out. Must ponder this more...
Pack rats - thank goodness some people are worse pack rats than me! I was complaining to my friend that got me hired that my hard drive had eaten my resume (is that an excuse I tried to use in school for not doing my homework? nah, I did my homework). I further complained that when you've worked somewhere for 6 years, the dates and specifics about previous jobs get a little muddled. He mentioned that he had the file somewhere. And he did. And he sent it to me. All hail hi_dude!!! Just another in the long line of instances where you have saved my ass....
