LOTR's that might have been

Via Ace at Buzzfeed.  I don't know that I'd have enjoyed Nicholas Cage as Aragorn, but Daniel Day-Lewis would have been awesome.  Sean Connery was offered 15% of box-office receipts to play Gandalf, which would have been $400 million.  Paul McCartney wanted to play Frodo in a production by Stanley Kubrick, and that one punches all my buttons.

Yea, and the Left/Hollywood thinks Republicans are cruel hearted grinches making loads of money off the suffering of the poor African peasants.

Cage as Aragorn?! Yikes- that is a stretch- he comes across to me as soft to the core.
