I love the cast! I think they're all perfect. I hope the cast of the next two movies will be just as good.<P>I think it was great that most of the cast were not that well-known before, at least not to me. I think that if PJ had chosen big hollywood movie stars, or whatever, it wouldn't have been the same. I love it just the way it is.<P>I agree that Robin Williams would have been a good Tom Bombadill.. but not quite as I imagined him. Maybe if they made him a bit bigger and fatter. Hmm.. <P>Someone gave some suggestions of actors if it were to be a comedy. If that was the case, I think that Rowan Atkinson would have made a perfect Frodo.. don't you!?
