I've quoted it before. And I've quoted it again. And again. And again. And a few months from now, I'll probably quote it again.

So here it is.

Actor Ian McKellen, who plays Gandalf in the Lord of the Rings films, says on his Web site: "I find nothing harmful in sharing fantasies about favourite characters or their interpreters even real person stories seem unobjectional as they are clearly fictional."


and that's all I have to say about that.

Huh. I had no idea he'd said that. Good for him. I bet if I were having moral issues about this that would make me feel better. But, yeah. I'm really not, so it's just interesting. I'll stop rambling now.

The words fantasies and fictional stand out to me.

Apparently (and this is brand new information wank) those of us who are all 'Woo hoo. Gay RPS! Woo hoo Wincest!' are going to burn in hell. Or something.

Man that makes me wanna watch my LotR Special Features! *runs over to pop in DVD* Oh, wait, that's right...my psycho ex-roommate STOLE the special features discs >.<

I love Ian McKellen. It's AWESOME that he said that, so, well, at least we know SOME celebs are okay with it. I think he secretly just likes reading Legolas/Gandalf porn and that's his subtle way of encouraging it. ;) heee

Also, I don't think you're going to burn in hell, Smidge, assuming you redact your statement that I'm gonna for not being into Wincest. You fucker lol ;)

I hate it when people tell me it's wrong for shipping people that were never together. Or writing about it. Slash or otherwise.

I knew he was one of the celebrities that doesn't care.
