Finding Frodo

We see Bilbo gripping his sword (OK, he's invisible, but never mind). We see Gollum squatting, muttering, looking like an easy target. Music builds dramatically, then...cut to Bilbo (or Bilbo's footprints) running down the tunnel, squeezing through the door, grunting, brass buttons scattering. All this time it seems that Bilbo must have killed Gollum to escape. But when Bilbo catches up to the dwarves, he tells the story and we see the leap in flashback (although Bilbo is invisible. Hmm. Will they use "flame world" again like when Frodo had the Ring on?) and the dwarves will ask Bilbo why he didn't just stab Gollum and kill him. Bilbo will respond with the lines about pitying him.
Where's Frodo?

You don't film books either.

Film is a visual medium. A filmmaker should not, I judge,

Lots of hammers in "The Hobbit", none proverbial.

How were the clothes in the troll-cave hanging from the walls?
