That is NOT Tom Bombadil. Or Goldberry either, for that matter.

For some reason that Tom Bombadil reminds me of the horrendous "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" done awhile back, where the animals were played by people in giant costumes where you could actually see zippers and such. Dunno why.

Ew, no, you're right - Bombadil looks a bit like Gandalf, too.

Those spoilers for Extended Edition... I hope I'm wrong but it doesn't sound like our Faramir/Eowyn scenes get much play.

Do you know which version that was or when it was made? I saw a recent BBC adaptation of that where the lion was played by a mechanical lion and it actually looked pretty good.
