Three words: Viggo Is Aragorn.<P><BR>I've never heard of an actor who put so much of himself into a character. From reading and watching all those interviews with him, I realized what a truly amazing person Viggo is. People like that are really rare. Even though the movie Aragorn wasn't identical to my perception of Aragorn from the books, Viggo seemed to do everything just right, and he brought the audience in along with him. We doubted with him, despaired with him, loved with him, hated with him, and were tempted with him. We felt his love for Arwen, his regret for Eowyn, and his hate for Sauron. We FELT it, and I think that is the mark of a wonderful actor. If anyone deserves an Oscar, it's him. Forget Elijah Wood and Sean Astin. Even though they are truly superb actors, I don't think that they can compare to Viggo at all.
