Never forget that Hollywood stars have access to the most expensive & exclusive skin care, trainers, health care, & even plastic surgery, the likes of which we grimy little Proudfeet will never even hear of. Check Cate B out too, she hasn’t aged an hour

That isn't the effect it had on Gollum.

[-] NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 6 points 21 hours ago

That's over 500 years, though, no?

[-] Thavron@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 hours ago

Yeah even Bilbo looked virtually unchanged for the first 60 years or so.

He feels thin, sort of stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread.

[-] ByteJunk@lemmy.world 1 points 21 hours ago

Oh! This is a Bilbo right? I need to read the books again, been too long

[-] VubDapple@lemmy.world 2 points 20 hours ago

Yes, Bilbo describing how it feels to have ones life elongated by the ring without knowing that the ring is doing it

I mean he was a kid when he was hired to play Frodo. He seems relatively young cause he still is

[-] Thavron@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 hours ago

Yeah he was 19 iirc

[-] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 1 points 21 hours ago

I loved radio flyer and the good son

[-] Snowclone@lemmy.world 39 points 1 day ago

He's under 50, hardly a lad in Hobbit years.

[-] NoSpiritAnimal@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Not even as old as book Frodo going on his adventure

[-] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 16 points 1 day ago

I had the biggest crush on him growing up. Stupid sexy hobbitses

[-] doingthestuff@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago

He'll likely be restless by his 111th birthday.

Did y'all forget that Frodo went to the Undying Lands? He only visits for work.

Edit: it seems I've forgotten... he'd still age in the Undying Lands.

This confirms he is a Dark Lord then, and must have purposefully sought to infiltrate Valinor. I don't dare to guess his intentions...

[-] yngmnwntr@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 day ago

Doesn't he go to Valinor to die though? He doesn't live forever just because he was a ringbearer, he went for some healing and respite before moving on to the Doom of Hobbits. I always thought the Quest and the Wound caused him to 'die' young, he never healed, he left for Valinor, had a nice peaceful nap in Elvenlands, and died happy.

[-] Linktank@lemmy.today 26 points 1 day ago

Damn, he's 43, so I guess 39 in that image.

[-] Lemjukes@lemm.ee 22 points 1 day ago

Yeh this feels a bit of a stretch for someone aging from early 20s to early 40s. A, some people have good genes. B, we tend to notice men’s aging with less weight(ymmv culturally). And, C he’s a millionaire movie star with access to the healthcare that comes with.

[-] LyD@lemmy.ca 29 points 1 day ago

D, both pictures are edited/airbrushed.

[-] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

I'm very very slightly younger than him and aged the same way. My beard grew in better as I got older and I got a better haircut, but other than a few grey hairs in the beard, a couple of extra pounds, and a slightly changed hairline I'm really similar to the kid in the picture from my boot camp graduation. I expect that to change pretty hard in the next couple of years when all my drinking and hedonism finally catches up to me.

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?
