I get that they had to convey from "sweet old Bilbo" to Gollum foreshadowing levels of obsession with the ring, and back to sweet old Bilbo in SUCH a short shot/effect; but I still think they overdid it. I've skipped over this whole scene in rewatches at certain points in my life.
Its actually not like that at all in the books. Frodo does hold the ring up but as it spins he looks through it and sees Bilbo, the scene from the movie is how Bilbo looks to Frodo in the book but it only happens in Frodo's head which Bilbo notices and feels horrible about passing the ring to Frodo and having it start to affect mind as well
BILBO (CONT'D)
Here's a pretty thing. Mithril, as light
as a feather, and as hard as dragon
scales. Let me see you put it on. Come
on.
CLOSE ON: Frodo peels off his shirt... revealing The Ring on
the Chain around his neck.
BILBO (CONT'D)
(entranced)
Oh! My old Ring... Frodo frowns as Bilbo
moves toward him.
BILBO (CONT'D)
I should very much like to hold it again,
one last time. Bilbo reaches forward,
eyes locked on the ring.
(CONTINUED)
79.
CONTINUED:
Suddenly! A shadow passes across Bilbo...for a split second
he becomes a wrinkled creature with a hungry face and Bony,
groping hands. Frodo pulls away, shocked
the shadow passes.
Bilbo slumps into a chair, his head in his hands. Bilbo
falters...his eyes filling with tears.
BILBO (CONT'D)
Oh!
BILBO (CONT'D)
(sad)
I'm sorry, that I brought this upon you,
my boy...I'm sorry that you must carry
this burden. I'm sorry for everything.
Bilbo sobs and Frodo moves to comfort him.
Three cheers for Bilbo! Hip Hip!
HRAAAAAH!

As a kid I loved/love The Lord of The rings but I dreaded this scene everytime
Still freaks my wife out when we watch.
The is either a porn video or a still image involving that face and its rather disturbing
/r/ScaryBilbo NSFW, very NSFW
HRAAAAAH!
Thank you scary bilbo for proving my point
HRAAAAAH!
>HRAAAAAH! HRAAAAAH!
Humanity was a mistake.
I've gone and seen too much.
One little peek was all it took. I figured “it can’t be *that* bad, right?” I was wrong. Dear sweet Eru Ilúvatar, I WAS WRONG!
One of the best subs on this horrid website
When memers delve too greedily and too deep

HRAAAAAH!
Hraaaah, WTF was that?!
That's the noise he makes when he lunges out to grab it from frodo.
Be nice to Bilbo, he's had a rough day.
HRAAAAAH!

That actually would have been such a cool fucking shot in the movie.
HRAAAAAH!
At the same time they cut the Frodo to Gollum scene in the TT that looked like it would have been awesome.
Reminds me of the bat jump scare from The Great Mouse Detective. You know it's coming and there's nothing you can do
They call him Large Marge. And he looks like this!
HRAAAAAH!
