...but it was the only relevant one in my collection. (Forgot about the userpic problem when I didn't renew my paid account.)

Anyway! I expect most of you have seen the Hobbit casting news, but I have things to say about it.

Richard Armitage? As Thorin Oakenshield? Really? We're going with hot Dwarves now? Yes, Dwarves, plural, as Aidan Turner and Rob Kazinsky have also been cast as Dwarves. As if it's not bad enough that The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe made me lust after a faun, Peter Jackson is now going to have me lusting over Dwarves? Or is all that handsomeness going to be covered by a massive beard? Because that would be a real waste, you know.

Regarding the casting of Bilbo, if they couldn't make Ian Holm look young as per the prologue of The Fellowship of the Ring, Martin Freeman is a fine choice!

And now I do promise to stop spamming today!
