[Knight of Gondor]

I did enjoy Gimli's portrayal as done by John Ryce-Davis. I've never seen John in anything else, but his acting is quite delightful. Somehow, that think voice, the way he pants and breathes are all audibly appealing. However, don't take this to mean I'm a part of any faction that devotes its time to fawning after movie characters. I scoff at those! I just enjoyed his performance.<P>Somehow, though, Gimli is lots different from John Ryce-Davis himself. For one thing, I don't think the man can speak a sentence (at least on EE footage) without spouting the D-word. :\<P>By the way (Mild spoiler alert), yes, the final count of Gimli's and Legolas's competition will be on the EE.
