Re: Re:Well what if one of the hobbits came back Hmmmmm...for once I have to agree with Underhill. It is absolutely AWFUL that Tom Bombadil has to be taken out. But if someone has to be removed then Tom can be removed with minimum fuss and changes in the story. Plus, his presence isn't of vital importance to the main story, unlike say, Galadriel or Elrond. What if - what if this is as good as it gets?
