I have to say I'm impressed, although I'm not yet 100% sold on how the Dwarves look, though. Still, I'm very much looking forward to these movies.
I was surprised at how many actors I remember from British TV. Richard Armitage, Martin Freemen, Benedict Cumberpatch, Stephen Fry, James Nesbitt...
Dude, you have no idea how excited I am for this movie. Edit- Now I feel the epic urge to read the Hobbit for the 12th time.
Stephen Fry? Oh man, this just made the movie more awesome! The only ones I remembered are Ian McKellen (no, really?) and that guy that plays Watson in that amazing Sherlock series (of which they should be making new episodes as well, can't wait for that). You might've named him, but I hardly know any actors by name.
Yeah, Freeman played Watson in the Sherlock series and Cumberpatch played Sherlock alongside him.And Fry was in the most recent Sherlock Holmes film. Lot of connections with Sherlock Holmes between the actors.
