F'ck me, they all really love 'Viggo' in the special features

Watching all the documentaries in the extended editions for the
first has been really awesome and the amount of work put into
these films is just incredible.
I noticed though, pretty much every few minutes one of the cast
or crew being interviewed gushes about some amazing thing Viggo
did, or how awesome Viggo is: Viggo is so cool! Viggo did this
in one take! Viggo learnt the sword fighting fastest and became
a master swordsman! Viggo, Viggo, Viggo!
It's become a running joke with me and my brothers of waiting
for the next Viggo praise to come up, it's pretty funny.
Anyone else notice this?
Then when Viggo started to be interviewed I was expecting some
amazing, exciting guy to start talking but he's very serious and
soft spoken and to be honest didn't seem that 'amazing' haha.
To be fair though, he did genuinely seem to be a pretty cool guy
and my favourite little fact that I learnt was when he kicked
the helmet in his rage thinking the hobbits were dead, he broke
his toe and the scream they used in the film was his scream as
he broke his toe.

I love hearing all this random info, I wish Harry Potter was as
detailed in it's special features.

Viggo seems like a great person. So it's quite understandable.
I've seen all the appendices on the extended versions, and I
agree that they're very interesting. Really opens your eyes
to all the hard work that went into Lord of the Rings. You also
learn a lot by listening to the audio commentaries. Dom and
Billy are two very funny people!

Ever since I heard this and that he still continued doing the
take until it was over, I really admired him. Plus he's like...
my favorite actor in that whole trilogy. Him and Miranda Otto...
I just love her!

God I understand loving Viggo, he's fantastic haha. I think he'd
be incredible to work with. Did you get to the bit where Orlando
Bloom said Viggo used to greet him by headbutting him? Like just
any time he saw him, including at premiers?
