Fred ,'Just Rewards (2)'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Stuart Townsend cast as Bard the Bowman in The Hobbit.

What do you think?
I didn't realize the Shire was a trailer park.
It's the modern updated version. He moved the Scouring of the Shire from LotR to The Hobbit and now they all live in trailers.

Oh, that's really funny.
The rest of that article is baffling: why is Frodo in the movie? What, exactly, are they doing?
Oh, wait, it's April Fool's. So ... maybe not.
