Just to butt in and clarify a few things. Or ask for clarification, actually.
First, are we talking about charisma in the movies or the books? Or both? The discussion seems divided at this point, so I'm not really sure.
Second, is charisma intended to be synonymous with acting ability? (I ask this question on the assumption that we're talking about charisma in the films.) If so, then I'll defend the likes of Wood, Mortensen, and Tyler to the last, while affirming the talents of McKellen and Holm. But I'm not sure that being a charismatic actor is exactly the same thing as being a good actor.
