lobelia321There's an interview with John Rhys-Davies here .
The man is one big hunk of slashiness!
Two reasons why:
1) Everyone always goes on about the pouty one's *back injury*. Well, JRD has got a back injury, too (so there) plus scars all over his body (and he shows them to his interviewer!) plus near-death experiences, including a *plane crash* in the jungles of Africa.
Oh, it's just too Romantic for words.
2) Listen to the man:
RHYS-DAVIES: (Speaking directly into the tape recorder, he says:) Now listen up girls! Orlando Bloom. Very dishy! (And laughs.) Viggo Mortensen... dream!
We've got some other very handsome men, too – Bernard Hill, for instance, who I think is superb and magnificent in this. Every bit of casting in this film is actually first-class. And Karl Urban. Wonderful casting and rightly so because the film is in some way about beauty and sex appeal. (He laughs.) But I don't think a dwarf qualifies too much among those lines.
May I just repeat for those too befuddled by the word 'Orlando' to notice the rich vein of slash here:
We've got some other very handsome men, too – Bernard Hill, for instance.
Oh my god. The other John (Noble) is going to be *so* jealous. Hm, so that's what went on at Helm's Deep....
Also, speaking of Bern, why has still nobody slashed the TTT moment in the Golden Hall:
Viggo to Bern: "You'll feel much better once you have a sword in your hand."
Yeah. Indeed. So: whose sword?
