sometimes i think about the acorn scene and how it went through several stages of production and still came out as gay as it was.

like sure, bilbo and the acorn are supposed to symbolize bilbo’s good and simple nature in comparision to the dwarves and the gold but… they really recorded that scene and let richard make those heart eyes huh. didnt even have him tame it down. went through editing and focused on those heart eyes completely. it is like impossible to read thorin’s reaction to bilbo as anything but.
