Yup, there is a swoon factor here, and many polls taken (by myself with myself) determined that Viggo looked better with the hair and stubble. (As conversely, did a short haircut avec stubble suit better our Aussie friend in Gladiator.)

I have it on good authority (I haven't been to that site mentioned above yet) that Vin Diesel was up for the role of Aaragorn...so it was with great relief that I saw Viggo on screen, and a fine job he did.

And did someone mention Hugh Jackman??? SWWWOOOOOOOONNNNNN!
