What you think?

Treebeard's voice was provided by none other than John Rhys-Davies, aka Gimli [img]smile.gif[/img] I think he did a pretty good job. He's got that deep voice and thick Welsh accent that gives him a grandiose, Tolkienesque 'authenticity' in both dwarven and entish roles.
In terms of 'breatha', well, most of those extra characters were played by New Zealand actors. Needless to say, our accents sound atrocious in comparison to eloquent British or American ways of speaking [img]smile.gif[/img] But hey, orcs are supposed to be repugnant, so that you felt disgusted was probably a good thing
