Old Bilbo seemed very tired... [In reply to] Can't Post
Ian Holm seemed very lethargic during the whole scene. And he didn't look the same to me. I'm aware that he's now in his 80s, but nevertheless it was striking to me how different he looked from FOTR, at least it was when I first saw AUJ. His hair looked wet and a lot stringier, and he obviously packed on a few pounds. I really didn't notice much of a difference in Frodo.

    yup.. it doesn't help that Bilbo's face has been digitally de-aged (badly) QuackingTroll Send a private message to QuackingTroll Apr 6 2013, 6:58pm

                    The de-aging is most obvious on Balin in the flashback. It looks very creepy // QuackingTroll Send a private message to QuackingTroll Apr 7 2013, 1:24am
