Also, when I clicked on that CNN link, there was a Quick Poll on the same page asking which Best Picture nominee people would vote for if they had a vote.

RotK is winning by 79%. (No surprise, really. I'm sure every LOTR fan site in the universe is linking to that interview, and everyone who stops by has to vote for LOTR.)

Have we seen this before? I just ruptured something laughing.

Oh, it's back up! It was linked by TORN last week, and overloaded the bandwidth as a result.

This is hilarious!

His companion, Gimli son of Gloin, had sharper remarks to make upon the chosen nominees. "Mystic River? What madness drew them there? You'll find more cheer in a graveyard!"

But overall the mood was one of mild disgust. As Lord Aragorn put it to reporters, "The day may come when the Academy is able to find their ass with a flashlight. But this is not that day."

Did you all know that there is a "boyd daily" lj community?

Because I just discovered this today. . .

Oh, my. I hear every voice.

When asked to clarify his opinion, he told reporters that he had not the heart, for the grief was still too near, and retired for a walk in the forest.

And see every quizzical look.

Sumi! Slacker! I think most of the hobbit boys have a community, plust a general lotr one.

Some new RotK stills are available for downloading here. Both of The Kisses, and The Carry, and "The Ring is mine!" Good stuff.

Did you see the picture of Billy in glasses?

Sadly, there was another man in the picture -- but I immediately thought of you.

Did Billy have his beard? He looked sooo yummy in the pics from the PGA award. There's a man, much like Viggo, who looks much better with a beard than without.

No, but there was one where he's growing a beard and has large sideburns.

My fave: Billy at the CC awards - the open-shirted tux and the beard? Very nice.

and he is looking very noble as well
