Oh man - that show was WILD. It only gets weirder the closer you get to the screen and I was sitting in the front row. Sometimes it even seemed like the action was happening behind me or beside me. I had a terrible headache afterwards.

The CG people were pretty eerie...

Err... What about Bilbo? And Gollum?

I think I subconsciously left them out because Bilbo looks so old in LOTR and Gollum's a CGI creation.

Anyway Bilbo should appear way younger. Sure, the ring kept him young, but he's only on the brink of adulthood in the Hobbit and twenty years younger than Frodo is in LOTR...

Are you sure? I thought they were the same age (50) when they each set out on their respective adventures. Perhaps I invented that.
