Yahoo! Answers currently has two questions on the subject of David:

1.  Does anyone think David Wenham as Faramir in Lotr is Hot?

(Captain Obvious replies:  well, DUH!!!)

2.  Do you think David Wenham is a better comedy actor or drama actor?

Ahh, now that's an interesting topic for debate.  I've always thought David has a huge and as-yet untapped potential for comedy.  His best comedic roles to date have been sidekicks (Carl) or supporting characters (Johnny Spit, Doug from 'Cosi').  He's an astute observer of human foibles, and it's clear that he relishes the opportunity to play quirky roles.  Comedy requires excellent timing, restraint, and an eye for communicating absurdity, all of which David has.  Sometimes, his posture or facial expression alone can make you laugh.  I always love the look of total bewilderment that creeps across Josh's face when the taxi driver is lecturing him the morning after his first night with Cyn.

His delivery can also crack you up, even with short, throwaway one-word lines.  Two of my favorite little moments are a hung-over Richard Shorkinghorn mumbling "Greeeat" into his pillow when informed that the guests will soon be there for lunch, and Ian calling out "Okayyy!" to announce that he's all done with...um...donating.  The intonation is just hilarious.

On the other hand, David's performances can also cut you to the soul and make you cry (Faramir, Father Damien, Mark Waldman).  So I don't think there really is a definitive answer to this question.  It's like asking "Is it hotter in Boston or July?"
