*to the average person

I regret to inform you that a great many people find it "cool", including a lot of the people I know who are huge fans of the Peter Jackson films.

Im not sure I'd say anywhere near half the people who have seen it would say it's "cool" but unfortunately the average person doesn't really know much about what makes good armor. I don't fault them for it, but I do fault the show for it.

Boromir is infinitely cooler even without the armor.

Regardless, you know someone looked at that thing, and said to themselves "yeah, this is good. This is correct." which is just.... Unfortunate.
