People wonder why Tom Bombadil isn't in the movies. Cause he's fucking ridiculous and stupid in the books. The changes needed to make that character work on film, you may as well just not have him in it. Honestly a dumb and useless character. Ooooh he's so mysteriously powerful! He's useless is what he is

You shut your mouth! No one talks about my boy Tom that way. (I vaguely remember Tom Bombadil being one of Tolkiens daughters dolls and that’s how he came to be in the book.)
