But all white men look alike.

You should have been in the Castro in the 80s; all white men look alike indeed.

Ha! I've been told that, OH, yeah.

Indeed. But Gandalf is not scruffy. I had to ask EVERY scene which was Boromir and which was Aragorn. And then the nephew of the king of Rohan was only differentiable because his locks were flowing rather than lank. And, to make things worse...their clothes are all the same shape, too!

But when Boromir spoke, I was good...he's from YORK, and I could hear that. Sort of like how when Merry and Pippin are on screen...they look identical to me until I stare for a moment...or Pippin starts to speak and I'm GOOD, because he's Irish.

Ah, face blindness...

I get the hobbits confused, except for Elijah Wood.

Have fun, y'all! Perhaps someday we can join you. :)

I'm VERY excited about you being able to join us. Also, I'm still off for this next week, and want to see if there is an evening when I can come over and join you guys.

*hugs*
