Noa is AWESOME!

So what's everyone's opinion on Wilford Brimley's performance as, Noa?

Personally, I can't help but love the guy! I suppose Wilford Brimley's likeability helps some, and I can't picture anyone else playing the part as good as he did, but ever since i was a kid, I always liked the character. Sure, he starts off a bit gruff towards Cindel and Wicket, but it doesn't take long to see the guy has a heart of gold, and soonafter, decides to join Cindel and Wicket in their adventure. He, along with Teek (who's terrific!), prove very capable in their abilities and getting the job done.

As a kid, a guy like Noa would probably be someone I probably would have felt very safe around. Especially if I was in Cindel's situation. I guess it also helps that I grew up around close relatives that always kinda reminded me of Noa as well. ;-)
