The Fannish Perspective

[morgan_dhu]

I have been hearing many things about director David Cronenberg's latest film, Eastern Promises, starring Viggo Mortensen. One of which is that, apparently, there is a scene set in a bathouse/sauna in which the audience is exposed, as it were, to the full Viggo.

What does it say about me that my very first thought was that this would almost certainly lead to greater anatomical correctness in Aragorn/Legolas slash fan art?

I think there might be Aragorn/Stephen Colbert, by now, following Viggo's in-character cameo on the Colbert Report (http://www.nofactzone.net/?p=2197).

I saw that! (I watch The Colbert Report regularly - between that and The Daily Show, who needs to watch US news?)

Mortensen's visit was so totally bizzare and yet strangely cool. ;-)

I've seen Eastern Promises since, but the naked fight scene just, er, whizzes by too fast to get a good look at Mortensen's full Viggo. It'll be one to frame-by-frame through on DVD.

As someone recently said, Hee! ;-)
