I thought this was a funny quote..

"Jackson, 42, told stories about making the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy in torrential storms and contending with the formidable Ian McKellan, who plays the wizard Gandalf.


McKellan wanted to know why, in "Return of the King," he was doing hand-to-hand combat with orcs.


"He said, 'Why am I hitting these people, and not just blasting them with my staff?'" Jackson recalled. "I told him, 'The batteries have run out.' He just looked at me and said, 'Right, then.'" "
