Haha I think a good chunk of the women going to see this movie will be for RA! He's my only motivation to go see it - I'm one of those lovely Americans who doesn't care much about Captain America. My mom gave me a severe double-take when I mentioned interest in the movie ....& then I mentioned the Hobbit, too!

Dang it. Thought that looked so awesome, clicked on the link, and saw tickets weren't in US dollars - major indicator I'm not going.

I think it's going to be nice! We get to see him in a TOTALLY different role, and the fact he may not be absolutely stunning might help me focus on the plot

On a little side note: so happy Peter Jackson is directing the film! Smart man too - "Richard is one of the most exciting and dynamic actors working on screen today and we know he is going to make an amazing Thorin Oakenshield." Anybody else think Dec 2012 can't come fast enough?

I have also taken to watching clips on youtube of Richard reading bedtime stories on cbeebies when i need cheering up. Ladies if you haven't watched before i strongly reccommend it,it is the sweetest thing ever,your uterus will skip a beat! I have already had imaginary children with him and named them!

Personally, I loved it! If RA wasn't in it, still would have been great entertainment.

Has anybody actually READ North & South? I've been wanting too, but I'm not sure if it will live up to my love of the BBC production.

Haha I tried watching a Cbeebies clip on Youtube, but the cheery opening music deterred me, and I have yet to watch it. I might try again if I'm having a really bad day. But am I the only one that feels a little guilty/stalkerish watching the man read bedtime stories?

Really? ...What did you name them?
