“Budgets must be tight at The Hobbit. Why else would
they want a tiny, wee actor like James McAvoy to play the lead role of
Bilbo Baggins unless they wanted to save on the special effects?
The annoying Scottish star has been heavily linked to be the star of the heavily-anticipated movie, which will be directed by Guillermo Del Toro and produced by Peter Jackson.”
