WTF-- this played in slow motion on my mac.. I mean the picture was slow but the sound was in real time. Anyone else having htis problem?

Was that Viggo Mortensen?

Yes, that was Viggo. Which is totally awesome

Hahaha... Vigo is a really cool guy. He made a movie in Spain a year ago and he usually commented during interviews that he was a bit tired of having legions of dorks asking him to sign autographs in Lord of the rings stuff no matter what movie he was promoting. What the hell was he complaining about? He deserves it!

There's a talk show host in Spain famous for criticizing the conservative party and she just announced she is going to run for prime minister. Not seriously, it is just a joke but if Steven runs for president too... well, have you seen Bullworth?

Viggo rules.

Any Danish (Swedish/Norwegian) speaking readers of this blog can confirm this -- in the first installation of LOTR, he tossed in "min elskling" (My belowed) into the elven dialogue with Liv Tyler.

I'm kinda amazed that this has never been mentioned in the trivia section of imdb.com.

Viggo is my kind of crazy. I mean, seriously I hope I get to meet him some day. That was so cool.

I have, and I loved it, but Bullworth was a Senator who had a nervous breakdown while running for reelection and started telling the truth. I think Steven running would be more comparable to Pat Paulsen's campaigns:

Paulsen's campaign that year, and in succeeding years, was grounded in comedy, while not bereft of serious commentary. He ran the supposed campaigns using obvious lies, double talk, and tongue-in-cheek attacks on the major candidates, and responded to all criticism with his catch phrase "Picky, picky, picky". His campaign slogan was "Just a common, ordinary, simple savior of America's destiny."
