It is all about making the silmarillion with bad casting, not turning the silmarillion into a comedy.

You appear to have more faith in Atkinson's ability to steal scenes from the rest of this miscast crew than I do.

(Of course, come to think of it, he does have talent.)

Has anyone cast William Shatner yet?
