I think Tom Baker should play Tom Bombadil, if he is able.

40-ish Tom Baker would kill this role.

@Jimijamflimflam puts me in a tricky ethical spot when it comes to de-aging 3d technology, as Peter Jackson does have one of the top 3d studios I believe.

That ethical quandary aside, wouldn’t he still move like a 92 year old dude?

@mossyfoot

You want Andy Serkis to play Tom Baker using prosthetics or do you mean motion capture suit and map a 40-ish Tom Baker over him à la lotr gollum?

I like this. Either way. Take my money!

@mossyfoot

@Jimijamflimflam the latter. And as I think about it, #StephenColbert might be a pretty good purely physical motion capture actor himself, as I think he has trained in clowning and mime.
@Jimijamflimflam also that would get Tom Baker into the #DoctorWho, #StarWars, and #LordoftheRings fandoms.
