The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug - 10 Cameos We Would Have Preferred Over Legolas

10. Frodo/Sam/Merry/Pippin

I know that they wouldn't have been born when Bilbo set off with Gandalf and the dwarfs (not to mention the fact that Bilbo has left the Shire), but I miss the boys. Frodo has heart and honor, Sam has courage and wisdom, while Merry and Pippin are funny and always true to themselves. This quartet of friends took on an epic journey in the Lord of the Rings and each contributed to good conquering over evil. It would have been fun to stretch the truth and have a glimpse of them as very little boys and might have even offered a bit of comic relief - maybe Bilbo thinking of a happy family gathering when he's in deep peril or something? And, of course, none of them have beards, which would provide a welcomed visual relief.
