Rather than using regular size actors for the hobbits and dwarf and having to go through the hassle of making them look small, why didn't Jackson just use small people for the entire roles?

Small people are deformed.

Because actual midgets are pretty unpleasant to look at and look silly from a distance. The shots with actual midget doubles are really jarring.

>The shots with actual midget doubles are really jarring.

Which shots?

How do midgets get away with it? Imagine having such a recognizable deformity and still living a happy life where you dont care what others think

>low quality bait

because dwarfs and midgets are incredibly angry, violent people

'Hobbit' is a meanie slang to midgets. besides, they look freakish and good luck finding one who could act as well as Elijah

Will there be practical effects this good ever again? Seems like studios have realized they can half ass the cgi and normies will still eat it up

You ever see a midget climb a mountain? It's hilarious, all of the Frodo/Sam scenes where they climb around would have 0 emotional tension.
