zanooda:

You are right about this. I remember reading one Gandalf actor 
interview (oh, I know his name, but can't remember the spelling and 
don't have time to check :-)), where he says that the first and the 
last Gandalf scenes (meeting with Frodo in the beginning and sailing 
away with Frodo and the elves in the end) were shot either on the 
same day or at least one right after another. It must be very hard on 
the actors, jumping like this from scene to scene, if you ask me :-).

That would depend on *how much* the boy has grown. Colin may be 16 in 
DH, but still, "he was tiny in death", and Oliver Wood could carry 
him easily over his shoulder. If Colin actor grew up to be very tall, 
it won't work for me.
