Er... I didn't know that. I've seen the LOTR movies and liked them but I'm not super into Tolkien or all the backstory. The movie doesn't say that much time passed between Bilbo disappearing and Frodo leaving the Shire.

Correction: most people in this thread know this.

I wasn't trying to say that it's some sort of must-know thing, though! Just that in the context of the comments above, the difference between human years and hobbit years doesn't really matter.

Oh, I agree! It's a great secret and it made me smile. I just wasn't aware there was a big difference between hobbit ages and human ages and I didn't think that was necessarily common knowledge if you weren't a serious fan.

The movies, like a lot of movies do (especially historical movies) compressed the timeline. The Hobbit did the same with the backstory about the dwarves, while at the same time making Thorin older.

Basically? The movies and the books differ.
