I found it really funny that they were considering Christopher Lee. I hadn't heard anything about Ian McKellen, though. Not that I doubt that either of them could do it--they're both very good actors--but I just found it funny that they were considering the evil wizard to play Albus Dumbledore.<P>I don't think it would undermine LotR in any way. I mean, all of the actors have other acting jobs--I don't think it would be any more of a problem than Ian McKellen playing Magneto again would be. (Though I did have problems seeing him as a villain...lol! "Wait, that's Gandalf! He's not evil!")<P>~*~Orual~*~
