I'm thinking he definatly should have been. He might confuse some people, but he takes up a few chapters in the books! He's a pretty important character! If they're so concerned about getting the hobbits the right accents, you'd think maybe the'd stick Bombadil in (even just for a while...?). Oh well, that's my opinion, what's yours?
