    I don’t think there is a version of our world where Tom Bombadil is done well onscreen. While Jack Black has the energy for him, I would see Jack Black and not Bombadil Hey-Dol-Merry-Dol-ing.

      Yeah maybe/probably. That’s always my biggest problem with famous actors, you know them as actors and thus the bridge to the character is further. I like when new/unknown actors are cast for large roles for that reason.
