And so what if Ian McKellan is gay? It doesn't carry over to Gandalf at all. If you hadn't already known that he was gay, there would be no way for you to realize it just by watching The Lord of the Rings.


*shrugs and walks away*
In the first two movies it didnt carry over...but it did in this movie. Or at least I think it did. And its not because Ian McKellan himself is gay, its because they made him act somewhat gay. I dont care who was playing Gandalf, he still had some scenes that hinted at homosexuality.

Sorry if I offended you guys godlike image of this movie...I just thought it was a tad gay in parts. I of course wouldnt have minded but two of my friends setting beside me laughed outloud at every part that hinted at gay innuendo.

Everyone seems to think this movie is the shiz and that there is nothing greater. Dont bash the guy who comes along and thinks it wasnt the paragon of all movies.

The main reason I thought it was slightly less than the first two was not because of the gay tendacies, but because of the DIALOGUE. It was great at most parts (Aragorn's speech, Theodin's speech, etc.) But at other parts it was rather stupid.

For example, Aragorn is explaining this big plan to attack souron at mordor to draw the gaze away from Frodo and Sam. He gives this big explanation on how they will get his attention, then Legolas says this, in his mystic elven voice "A diversion.......!" I couldnt help but say "no? really? Aragorn just told you that!"

But nothing against Legolas, I would give anything to have been the guy who played Legolas. Im not saying I could do a better job than Orlando, but he had the coolest role in the history of time. Aragorn, he had a sword. Gimili had an axe. Legolas had elven blades and a bow and arrow, and he was all surfing on elephant trunks and sliding on shields. That's just awesome. Bloom will be remembered for a long time as the coolest guy ever.
