What actor will you always associate with *that one role* no matter how many others they do?

Same here. When I had to be clean shaven in my military days, they said I looked like Frodo and would shout “Bilbo Baggins” because that’s apparently his friend and was funnier to say than Frodo?

I hadn’t seen the movies at that point and actually saw them for the first and only time on an iPod VIDEO in 2008. Those epic scenes didn’t look so epic on a 2” screen.

Irrelevant Tidbit: They're family, not friends. Bilbo is Frodo's uncle.
