B/c, in my not-so-humble opinion, Aidan Turner would have looked a much better Dwarf if PJ & Co had allowed him to have a decent beard. Judge for yourself:



And if they wanted to go with the archers-can't-have-much-facial-hair theory, they should have had his hair pulled back into a topknot, too, as he was wearing it sometimes. Because loose hair gets caught in the bowstring just as easily as beard if not properly braided. (Which tells us a lot about the idiocy of Legolas wearing a veritable curtain of unbraided hair, but that's another matter entirely.)

Not that all this would be important - just another reason why I don't like the PJ films.

And a lot less stupid, I'd say. But again, many of the Dwarves were completely robbed of their dignity in those films - starting with poor Gimli and ending with poor Ori and Bombur. One wonders why Thorin would choose a bunch of complete idiots to perform the greatest task of Dwarven history. Well, in the Third Age anyway.
