When gandalf leaves, telling frodo to "keep it secret, keep it safe", he is gone for an unspecified amount of time researching whether or not the ring is in fact Isildur's Bane. If you take this to be a 17 year gap, the timeline matches the books.
I glanced and thought that was aragorn. Rustled my jimmies, if you'll pardon my French. I was ready to well actually all over the comments before I realized it was boromir.

He said "little one", not "young one"...

Movies Frodo is younger than Boromir though than book Frodo. So can go both ways.

Is he though? I don't remember his age being mentioned anywhere in the movies, not even implied

Bilbo mentions it during his birthday celebration speech. 33rd birthday of his nephew.

Oh, then I remembered wrong. I'll accept my "punishment" and rewatch the movies again

Fuck, was Boromir only 23? I always assumed he was atleast in his 30s.
