I definitely would NOT want Radcliffe as Bilbo! No, no, no!!!
But I can see a repeat of Frodolijah here.

Tennant as Bilbo? No way. He would make a rather bad hobbit in my opinion, even if it only is because of how tall he is!
I admire David Tennant's acting abilities, but I don't think that he is fit for the Hobbit, maybe for the Sil, but I could never get over this line: "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." He would never do!
