Yeah I'd buy him as Bilbo, he's got that "Hobbity" look (I should know, I have that "hobbity" look).pigeon_of_doom said:
Rumor: Tobey Maguire in Talks For The Hobbit
- Thread starter Andy Chalk
- Start date
Isn't it Guillermo del Toro's movie? I realize Jackson is a producer on the project and probably has more name recognition than del Toro but I've always though the director was the one to get the credit. We shouldn't stiff a deserving and talented director like del Toro.
I still think that the original, animated The Hobbit was an absolute masterpiece.
Yeah, I could go for this. I liked him in Spiderman (Spidermen?) 1 and 2, although I haven't seen Spiderman 3 or Brothers. But I do think that they could find someone better, and I doubt it's finalized.
EDIT: Just saw the above Michael Sheen pictures and I agree. He should do it.

Alas, the child's name will be Keith. He will grow up not knowing his true father and will, in turn, resent me for it. We will live together, alone in the Yukon, among the wolves, until I pass on and he is free to go about his life, which will be short lived due to being raised by wolves.Disaster Button said:
All because of you Toby... Damn you and your penetrating stare!
I think that Latino Review is not a very credible source, and that even if what they reported was 100% true, it's still pretty thin evidence...Andy Chalk said:

Also, epic mindfuck. I was debatign using Keith instead of Josh.. If I said Keith would you have said Josh?
Ok, I know I'm crazy and he's old, but Ian Holm did a damn fine job as Bilbo in the Peter Jackson movies. Futhermore, due to his possession of the ring, he never really aged, so the look he had in the begining would be fine for a Hobbit movie. It was just about how I had always imagined Bilbo.
I can see Tobey doing some work in it as a human or one of the Wood Elves (That's right, I'm calling it. Tobey Maguire is playing the role of Wood Elf #3.), but he looks way to young to be the esteemed Master Baggins. If they put him as the voice for Smaug, however, I will protest.
On a lighter note.... that stare is really creepy. It's like he's looking right through me... at my cookies.

Holm is too old to play the role imo, as it's a fairly energetic role which would probably be too much for a 78 yr old. I thought he looked too old at the beginning of The Fellowship of the Ring too (I thought he was great, but just wish he looked 10 years younger).Fritzvalt said:
...seriously? Thats a seriously bad choice for Bilbo Baggins if they do =\
Well, I guess make-up can do a lot of wonders...

OT: As long as Spider-Man 4 and 5 comes out with pure movie goodness I dont care. But I think with a little tweaks he just might pull it off. This might become the newest Sherlock Holmes! Infer that the cast of SH is bs and that this might be too BUT! they might change the story a bit to make it fit.
