Thorin:Oh for fuck sake KILI hurry up and move tha heck forward.These bastard elves need to be destroyed.Do i sense you getting weak on me KILI,ELVEN DWARF.lol
I just keep cracking up at Thorins absolute HOSTILITY towards the elves.

Thorin:WhaaaaaaaT THAAAAAAA Fu>kk! ELVES Ima kill these fools.COME ON! I SAID COme on.!!!Now it's oNNNN BIAAATCH! LOL./ Move the FUCK OUT OF MY WAYYYYY!
Ridiculously excited for this movie. Not only is Martin Freeman (my favorite actor) playing the lead role, but we all get to visually step into Middle-Earth once more. Brilliant!
Can't wait for the movie. I just finished reading again The Hobbit (maybe I will read it again in december or in november to refresh my memory). Really, thanks for sharing this. LOTR rules!
What encourages me when watching this blog is that Jackson is not only aware of and addressing the problems inherent in 3D filming, but that he is bound and determined to use 3D to its full potential and not just as a cheap gimmick.
I hope The Hobbit won't fall in the line of movies which main purpose is to hurl objects against the screen and show how 3D is awesome and forget about everything else at the same time ...
WTF???!! 3D PJ What were you thinking?? an folk epic movie in 3D?? also you wanted to ruin the last 3 films by filming them in that kind of shit quality, its dizzy and it also turns movies into confusing caos.
It's a bit of a letdown to see that so many close-up landscapes aren't and weren't real in Jackson's movies, there is no way around it of course and in fact it shows how much work and thoughts are going into these films, but it kind of takes you away from the actual experience and makes you realise that it's not real when you finally see it on the big screen.
Although I'm even more amazed through that about the successful work they did on LotR to make it look so real.
@Crichjo32 The only good thing about Avatar is WETA. They do the most outstanding job on films. I am glad that I can chat to John Howe, Bruce Hopkins and many others via facbook. They are the most wonderful people ever. And to be doing this 10th Anniversary group thing on facebook is a blast! I will miss those who won't be a part of The Hobbit but I am looking forward to seeing the new cast too.
Is it me or is Peter putting on weight? He looks more like the lovable cuddly guy from the LOTR films, than the stick thin Spielberg-esque look he had in the post-rings era.
To everyone who didn't do it; look at the art with a pair of 3D glasses! It's so much more beautiful when you actually try it! The depth is incredible!
Lord of the rings were my fav movies in my childhood, I don't like them as much now but I'll deffinetely watch this in theaters. It will bring back good memories.
Why do they need to fuck up every movie with 3D these days? Quality control seems to go out the window whenever 3D is used. Besides, it doesn't look that impressive anyway.
@OregonCM I saw Avatar at the movies. It was ok but it just doesn't have that feeling that LOTR has. LOTR feels like an extended family. And with The Hobbit, it is going to be the same but with some new faces! This long wait will be worth it! :)
@2010Nsync I agree! Avatar was good looking but it was a shallow experience, and didn't have the heart and soul of the LOTR movies. One of the reasons why so many love the LOTR films (particularly myself), is because it was like you were watching a family in an epic quest, and we had a connection with them. All the relationships between the characters felt so genuine and real, and they were because the actors were really close with each other. I hope we get the same feeling from the Hobbit.
@2010Nysnc I agree! I'll bet Peter Jackson saw Avatar and laughed and thought to himself "If it takes no story and good effects to make $2 billion than I challenge accepted!" The Hobbit will crush Avatar!
@OregonCM I Agree, Avatar was extremely overrated. The Lord of the Rings , and The Hobbit will stand the test of time. I will be watching them when i am 80 , and still be moved emotionally. Tolkien was one of the greatest geniuses of the 20th Century and Jackson is the best person to visually portray his words.
In fact the Lord of the Rings trilogy was and still is superior to Avatar.
It had a bigger budget, but stretched to show a larger world with an even more epic scope. It had a more deeper, complex world to portray, created by the life & essence of Tolkien compared to Cameron's mere childhood fantasy. A perfect balance between CGI & grit reality.
I think The Hobbit will remind us what the real frontrunner on the magnificence of cinema was & always had been.
@AspergianMind I think the Tolkien world is great as well. But I'm not going to agree about the superiority. Each is different. Obviously the story on Tolkien's part is far more complex but the visuals in Avatar are still spectacular. However, I do agree in a sense that a better plot allows the viewer to be drawn to the world and therefore, make it more appealing.
@AspergianMind I agree, from an aesthetic view, Avatar was not very good. the creatures looked very robotic and the graphic design looked like I could have done it
@AspergianMind Well I think comparing a romance scifi film to a fantasy film isn't really ideal. They cover completely different problems and are portrayed from completely different views. I like both of them but I don't want to compare them, at least not the story.
Let's compare it to Narnia instead. In this case, we all no which one is the best. ;)
I can't believe how many of you dweebs don't realize that JUST ABOUT EVERY THEATER has an option between 2D and 3D. So you CAN watch it in 2D. Stop whining! Christ!
@KrystalVisions82 Not around the world, or here in Europe, or in small towns even in the big old USA. And anyway, the big screen is for the 3D version. What I'd like to see first is a 48 fps 2D version on the biggest screen in my city, which is pretty big, I went there to see the Lord of the Rings, because it's huge. I had to go see The Fellowship twice, because I couldn't see anything of the action sequences in the third row. Last row worked.
I can't even imagine what kind of shit the 3D carry-on cameras will do to my head... nausea? If they can't tone it down for The Hobbit, I won't ever go and pay for the 3D version.
Not sure if I need the 3d but peter jackson never disappoints. And I trust he's doing 3d because it's visually better and not for the money. Unlike SOME people(*cough*Micheal Bay*cough*)
Peter Jackson's weight is changing up and down. it is not safe for the heart. I pray to God to give him long life. Peter, we need you. Take care of your health.
Return of the King was the 3rd highest grossing film until the last Harry Potter came out. Now ROTK has been pushed down to the 5th position. The Hobbit needs to kick Harry back down the list and fight for the #1 spot. I will watch it every day if I must!
@2010Nsync I'll go see The Hobbit even if it is in 3D. There's no doubt. Is money all you think about? They'll get a lot of it because 3D movies cost so fucking much, and all you get is a headache. I might wait for the Blu-Ray, but by then it's too late. They've split it in two just to cash in more on the 3D, which is sort of sad. I'd just like to see the story told on the big screen. It'll probably be even more full of "Bilbo's embellishments" that the book.
@swishtrack I totally agree bro.;It;s true.Thatls the reason why pj made 48fps 3d and IT IS GOING to be a 2 and a half hour movie,WIth top notch special effects and a more beutiful detailed middleearth Avatar will crush like it should.!
@glennwih - you can buy 3D glasses and cut the red side in one half, and the blue side in one, and then put them together in one eye.. voila! 3D-vision!!

Considering that most viewers will watch this in 2D (traditional theaters and home TV), one hopes Mr. Jackson will not rely on wow of 3D to carry the films. In addition, the falling attendance for 3D continues, whether over the high price or fading novelty. It would be a shame if The Hobbit's possibilities were sacrificed on a yet-again declining fad.
@kustomride It would be a shame, but PJ is an amazing film maker, and he has made 2D movies long enough, and known his fans long enough to know that anything less than the best he can do won't cut it... I have faith in his genius, and the genius of Walsh, Lee, Boyens, and Weta Digital :) It's gonna be amazing!

@ENTERRAPTURE20 seriously?! You do realize that Tolkien was a Christian and the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings are all about the Christian walk right??? He also wrote this at the same time that the Narnia series was written in a bit of competition between the two Fantasy Literature writers!
Definition of christian.. now you're making me laugh even more. No one gives a shit about your religious motives in a fantasy movie. So stay away, and watch without misintepreting everything.
@TheOnlyRise Hmm... No thanks. Apparently you are also ignorant of free speech as well as the concept of the internet. Perhaps you should go back to school and learn a few of these things as well as a small amount of manners and courtesy. Oh and they weren't my religious motives they were the authors, but your may be ignorant to that too. Cheers.
@Zdolshin uh yea um Tolkien didn't like allegories at all so i don't know where the fuck your getting your information. :/ he said in the first lotr book in its foreword: "But I cordially dislike allegory in all its manifestations, and always have done so since I grew old and wary enough to detect its presence."
@khisrow456 Perhaps you should also read up. They were both Christians and it was Tolkien that convinced Lewis to a Christian walk. You may not like to work but if you have food in your fridge I bet you get up and work often, how is that for allegory.
literarytraveler[dot]com/literary_articles/tolkien_lewis_oxford[dot]aspx and
@khisrow456 Did you even read the articles?! It's obvious that you didn't. I wasn't responding to the fact that they were Christian I was responding to the fact that they both wrote fantasy fiction that deals with the Christian walk. Seriously, just do a google search on these two authors with the word competition. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to gleen the info you so blindly stated you didn't "know where the **** [I was] getting [my] information". This is now way off the main topic.

Return of the King was the 3rd highest grossing film until the last Harry Potter came out. Now ROTK has been pushed down to the 5th position. The Hobbit needs to kick Harry back down the list and fight for the #1 spot. I will watch it every day if I must!

@2010Nsync I'll go see The Hobbit even if it is in 3D. There's no doubt. Is money all you think about? They'll get a lot of it because 3D movies cost so fucking much, and all you get is a headache. I might wait for the Blu-Ray, but by then it's too late. They've split it in two just to cash in more on the 3D, which is sort of sad. I'd just like to see the story told on the big screen. It'll probably be even more full of "Bilbo's embellishments" that the book.

Considering that most viewers will watch this in 2D (traditional theaters and home TV), one hopes Mr. Jackson will not rely on wow of 3D to carry the films. In addition, the falling attendance for 3D continues, whether over the high price or fading novelty. It would be a shame if The Hobbit's possibilities were sacrificed on a yet-again declining fad.
kustomride 3 months ago
@kustomride It would be a shame, but PJ is an amazing film maker, and he has made 2D movies long enough, and known his fans long enough to know that anything less than the best he can do won't cut it... I have faith in his genius, and the genius of Walsh, Lee, Boyens, and Weta Digital :) It's gonna be amazing!

@ENTERRAPTURE20 seriously?! You do realize that Tolkien was a Christian and the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings are all about the Christian walk right??? He also wrote this at the same time that the Narnia series was written in a bit of competition between the two Fantasy Literature writers!

Ahahahahaha. Christian walk, now that's a good one.

@TheOnlyRise and you are obviously ignorant of the definition of Christian. SO your ignorance is excused. Cheers

Definition of christian.. now you're making me laugh even more. No one gives a shit about your religious motives in a fantasy movie. So stay away, and watch without misintepreting everything.
TheOnlyRise 3 months ago
@TheOnlyRise Hmm... No thanks. Apparently you are also ignorant of free speech as well as the concept of the internet. Perhaps you should go back to school and learn a few of these things as well as a small amount of manners and courtesy. Oh and they weren't my religious motives they were the authors, but your may be ignorant to that too. Cheers.
Zdolshin 3 months ago
@Zdolshin uh yea um Tolkien didn't like allegories at all so i don't know where the fuck your getting your information. :/ he said in the first lotr book in its foreword: "But I cordially dislike allegory in all its manifestations, and always have done so since I grew old and wary enough to detect its presence."
khisrow456 3 months ago
@khisrow456 Perhaps you should also read up. They were both Christians and it was Tolkien that convinced Lewis to a Christian walk. You may not like to work but if you have food in your fridge I bet you get up and work often, how is that for allegory.
literarytraveler[dot]com/literary_articles/tolkien_lewis_oxford[dot]aspx and
christianitytoday[dot]com/ch/news/2003/aug29[dot]html.
Since they are the opinions of Christians I suspect that you will dismiss them too. Cheers
Zdolshin 3 months ago
@Zdolshin did i say that tolkien wasn't a christian? no, i just said that that he stated that he disliked allegories.
khisrow456 3 months ago
@khisrow456 Did you even read the articles?! It's obvious that you didn't. I wasn't responding to the fact that they were Christian I was responding to the fact that they both wrote fantasy fiction that deals with the Christian walk. Seriously, just do a google search on these two authors with the word competition. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to gleen the info you so blindly stated you didn't "know where the **** [I was] getting [my] information". This is now way off the main topic.
Zdolshin 3 months ago
@Zdolshin what do you mean "christian walk" if your referring to an allegory, then probably the chronicles of narnia but not lotr.
