I love Ian´s but if someone would ask me another choice for Bilbo appart of Holm, I would say Jack Lemmon

Jack Lemmon was a fantastic actor, brilliant in everything he was in. My only reservation would be the accent. I don't remember if he ever used an accent other than his own. But if had been able to master a British accent, he would have been awesome.

aka. fili orc-enshield
+++++++++++++++++++
the scene, as i understand it, is exceptionally well-written. fili (in sort of a callback to the scene with the eagles), calls out "thorRIIIIIIN!!!" just as he sees the pale orc veer in for the kill. he picks up the severed arm of an orc which is lying on the ground, swings it up in desperation, effectively blocking the pale orc's blow. and thus, forever after, fili is known as "fili orc-enshield."
this earns him deep respect from his hard-to-please uncle. as well as a hug. kili wipes his boots on the pale orc's glory box. -- maciliel telpemairo

What if The Hobbit had been made as a film in the 1960s or early '70s?
I can just imagine The Hobbit as a film using the templates of Mary Poppins (1964), Doctor Dolittle (1967) and Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971).
BILBO: Gene Wilder
GANDALF: Rex Harrison
THORIN: Walter Matthau
And songs. Lots of songs.
