It was a dumb line, but blame the writers, not Orlando. I suppose they were accounting for those in the audience who couldn't understand Aragorn's flowery language.<P>And whilst we're mentioning it, even if it is off-topic: Orlando's a good actor, but he's started off in the types of films which require him to simply look good and give a few heroic lines. If you see him in Ned Kelly, which is a more gritty film, he gives a terrific performance.
