Musing on why Sean Connery is an idiot...

Don't get me wrong...I have enjoyed many a Sean Connery film, but the man is indeed an idiot.

Connery was Peter Jackson's first choice to play Gandalf in The Lord of the Rings. Connery turned down the role, in spite of a very sweet deal that included a percentage of the movie's profits because he, and I am paraphrasing, just didn't get it. He has reiterated that position after seeing the movie.

So...to put it in perspective, Sean "Zardoz" Connery turned down LOTR and instead did The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

Idiot.
