I'm not a fan of Jackson's decision to use Mortensen as Aragorn but I agree that Townsend would have been too young.

His ideas are wacky, but.... Viggo did a good job.....

This sounds like background to pushing him for an actor Oscar.... Are they going to push Sean Astin or Elijah Wood for Supporting Oscars?

[Restorer]

he had another actor cast as the warrior Aragorn, a reluctant hero

Movie-Aragorn, maybe.

Bokk-Aragorn is an eighty year old war veteran. No reluctance to fight whatsoever, although he does suffer some doubt as to whether his tactics are the right ones.

The one I can't et over is Elijah Woods as Frodo, though he has done a fine job, too. In the books, Frodo is 50.

You'd think Mortensen could at least afford a bottle of shampoo now that the movies seem be a success. His greasy strings were such a distraction is TTT. Blech!
