THE HOBBIT, Production Video #2 [HD]

[msklurgh]

05:10 the shining lol

[lolarr]

Sir Gregor Clegane @ 3:25!

[PunksDIY]

God damn. Nobody deserves to make this movie more than Peter Jackson. Also, everyone thumbs up officialcrews top comment. That's a clever response with a perfect parodied quote about something us Hobbit followers have been noticing while watching these production videos! That's triple whammy humble gold.

[charmedgirl90]

I love how with these movies the crew gets just as much publicity in these videos as the cast so the fans get a chance to fall in love with everyone involved in the movie

[maiseyferret]

Love how they measure space in units of rugby fields :D



[tubenachos]

Andy Serkis should get some consideration for an Oscar.

[Roxor007]

@tubenachos , Exactally, he's a great actor!

[Smallvillenerd]

3:27

YES! I remember Dr. Who was playing Radagast the Brown, I wonder where he pops up in the film and how much screen time he has

[Anduril6000]

Bruno du Bois can say his is directing the hobbit. (2nd 2nd assistant but still) ;)

[Wafflashizzles]

The reason these movies are better than so many others is because of the cooperation on the set- everyone seems friendly and knows each other. When people show their personal side and that they have feelings, without plastering famous names everywhere, it really does change the feeling of a movie,

[KenzieBoyRfc2]

I <3 LOTR !

[Melensko]

haha andy looks silly with dat hair



[Darthsantana]

where is the first one?

[Sedalb]

I think it's fantastic that Andy Serkis is co-directing this. Wouldn't have it any other way...

[wildwindsca]

amazing sites scouted

[oddyneo]

New zealand = skyrim

[OreoBiscuits88]

@oddyneo Please..... NZ is Middle-Earth which is an infinitely better fantasy world than Skyrim. 

[Sw33tSm0k3]

these guys just constantly have fun :x

[hawktalisman]

I love the fact that just about everyone is taking a desperatly needed rest, except for 72 year old Ian McKellen who is off to go on stage for the break...

[T101vsT1000]

So are they splitin the hobbit into 2 parts?

[sweiland75]

@T101vsT1000 Yes of course.

[Game1ngAssass1n]

@T101vsT1000 Yes, and it's not just The Hobbit. The appendices of LOTR will be in there too. 

[vyner77]

AMAZING!!!!!!! Thanks so much for doing these blogs!!!!!! amazing!!!!!!!

[Killadey]

Sylvester Mcoy....get in!

[schwipesy]

If Golum is directing some of the film his parts are just going to be pictures of the ring, horrible idea to let him do it!

[RushingRiver117]

@Ajoh92 Yeah! Hey what has John Williams done recently?

[watchthefaithrain]

Is it just me, or has Peter gotten fat again? lol

[officialcrews]

@watchthefaithrain not as fat as he once was :) but he's not as thin as he used to be. he is precisely the weight he expects to be.

[ironychan]

@officialcrews What I don't understand is how he STAYS plump when I don't think he's slept since sometime in 1999.

[SuperWaveShredder]

Stay in attack formation!

[1994Catherine1994]

i don't understand :( Why gadalf become grey again and not white? :S

[Dramen93]

@1994Catherine1994 Because The Hobbit takes place long before The Lord of the Rings, maybe?

[10ENOC]

@1994Catherine1994 uh... this takes places before gandalf becomes gandalf the white... before frodo destroys the ring... before the original lord of the rings... you are not lotr worthy. and its GANDALF.

[Game1ngAssass1n]

@1994Catherine1994 *face desk*

[michaelforthriller]

OMG !!!! I Didn't know Gandalf was Magneto !!!! WOW !

[Ajoh92]

Anyone here agrees that LotR is the biggest thing in film music since John Williams?

[psychoangel20]

I want to be him so bad!

[therandygoat]

3:26 - Epic name is epic.

[leomburroughes1]

Love how there measurements are done in terms of rugby fields!

[Rhandahl]

not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, BUT 5 HELICOPTERS!

[SecondServerXXL]

This is it

[fairrater121]

5 people are...just...I don't even know.

[jenn071000]

So, wait ...Andy Serkis is producing/Co-directing some scenes in this one?

0_o Interesting!

[somethinglacking1]

@jenn071000 Yep, Andy Serkis directs motion capture too, since he's such a revolutionary genius at it :) he also worked as "Dramatic Director" for the video games Enslaved: Odyssey to the West and Heavenly Sword, in which he also acted in.

[matrixkanalt]

sauron has made 5 dislikes...

[MaskdGFX]

@matrixkanalt stealing someones else comment, nice..

[martynjhorne]

thumbs up when your hitch hiking

[JakeLesher]

1:43 "...yeah we have two-hundred and fifty days of shooting on these TWO Hobbit movies..." - Peter Jackson himself.

[ja2011ec]

Saruman has 4 accounts. -_-

[MercedesBenzyne]

@ja2011ec Saruman's a good guy in this one :P

[ja2011ec]

@MercedesBenzyne Technically this is around the time Saruman's corruption starts taking root. He delays the White Council's assault on the Necromancer until the last possible moment. That moment being when Gandalf leaves the company on his mission :P

[MercedesBenzyne]

@ja2011ec he's still a good guy! it's just like Anakin Skywalker, he's doing good, he just also has a dark side (strange about Anakin considering Christopher Lee was Count Dooku lol)

[wushitono]

@ja2011ec He just made abother one...

[dotShinoda]

@ja2011ec Hey! Christopher Lee is awesome

[michelin141]

@ja2011ec I dont think so, the ents cut his internet cable

[boydman117]

@ja2011ec Sauron's the fifth.

[dacoolray]

@ja2011ec You mean Smaug

[VOLTRONUS]

I didn't knew that NEW ZEALAND is such a beautiful country.WONDERFUL PLACE especially mountains

[JRayMalcolm]

this is why it takes 100 man hours for every second of video you see on screen.

[Joekr15]

4 people are orcs >:(

[XtremeFilmsStudios]

James Nesbitt and Sylvester McCoy is in the Hobbit! SWEET!

[seanGoodwin71]

If nothing else, Peter Jackson should be on the board of the New Zealand tourist bureau. Everywhere he takes us just looks amazing.

[elizabethgaskelfan]

I AM SO EXCITED!!!

[smiley17777777]

damn... New Zealand is so beautiful!!

[dekead]

I hope they compile all these blogs into the bluray like they did for king kong, thatd rock!

[TheRobMargolin]

PLEASE type in GREEN LANTERN /THE ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY it is the true story of how George Lucas sent off duty CIA agents to threaten my Mother with guns check it out thanks

[Imbarcelona1]

Only one word can describe this ... Beautiful

[cassablanca20]

aw, poor make-up people who have to work with the tanned dward xD

[biasvoltage]

I think it's just great..great..that we get this behind the scenes look. They could have been secretive about it all. But now I wanna see it more than ever. Just sobering the amount of teamwork. Thanks crew.

[cactusjack20]

anyone who disliked this should be skinned and nailed to a tree by Beorn

[fredokz]

4 people have Parkinson and could not hit the correct button. We all understand and wish you the best, guys.

[rockxhero]

looks like they're going to war w/ the helicopters in formation like that. hah

[iPhoneTechie]

I wanna see what smaug looks like :P

[tomyboy39]

new zealand is so beautiful

[SophiaFoutsitzis]

@tomyboy39 i was about to post the same thing! ahhh i love the scenery. this movie is going to be so sick.

[MrFrontlinedave]

Can't wait

[branhan007]

At 5:02 did anybody else think the helicopters were placeholders for dragons or something, cause of the music...no,okay.

[Draconicqueen]

And, and who else LOVES that they measure space in rugby fields?

[Draconicqueen]

OH MY SWEET HEAVEN Sylvester McCoy as a LotR character? AND HIS BREAK IS IN BARCELONA?

Can this possibly get ANY MORE AWESOME?!?!

[loveSHONEthru]

this just pulls at my heartstrings, because it makes me want to go visit New Zealand so badly!

[webslinger48]

This movie is going to make the Harry Potter movies look like...well...Harry Potter movies.

[HungriMunki]

@webslinger48 Well said

[catherinef93]

i think i love andy serkis...is that weird?

[Feanorielle]

@catherinef93 Not at all. He's fun and talented and not that bad looking either. :)

[Pe0ads]

Serkis is helping direct?! Awesome!

[ysuffl]

go peter! go new zeland! love u both

[bodger2471]

hopefully these films will be the movie event of the decade, just like the Lord Of The Rings was for the noughties.

[Taqu3]

Shit, peter jackson put on some weight

[ProtoGrey]

These videos have amazing vibes. I could watch these for hours. :)

[mrburleigh]

3:46 - 3:48 I want his autograph. That guy just made my day.

[TheCoken]

Andy is looking as worn down as Peter was during the King Kong production. Should we be worried?

[adriansoldierwolf]

if armegeddon comes before the hobbit im going to the closest theatre and watching it in heaven

[Megasambeful]

new zealand is the perfect contry to make the hobbit caverns forests swamps grassy plains and huge mountains

[markit39]

I can't wait for the 4th one.... it's been ages

[SironaFlett]

12 years. Holy shit man... I can remember Lord of the Rings and I was only 8 when I saw it. Big part of my life. Cannot wait for the Hobbit with brilliant actors in it. Literally squealing with joy.

[ShadowoftheWolf123]

New Zealand look's very like Norway...



[Blellowdb]

@toouglytoshowmyface

Four more years!

[Bluffdemon]

oh man i cant wait for this film to be finished and in the cinema :-)

[Stellaacee]

am I the only one wanting to pet one of the hobbits? ;p (and gosh, Freeman as Bilbo is such a great idea..)

[alicialuvjesse]

I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!

[aznmafia77]

didn't realize how exhausting filming and rehearsing was until i saw this. wow, they all look so tired.

[marcopolohihohiho]

At 1:45 listen and you can tell that the hobbit is going to be two differnt movies

[TheFirstNoel23]

I can't wait for this movie!!! Only i have to wait a WHOLE ANOTHER YEAR until it comes out... (sigh)

[icsomethingshiny124]

2:50

[jerryfudala]

2:47 - he should make metal objects fly around behind him...

[harveyshideout]

4 dislikes! what honestly do you have to dislike about an informative video about a very creative and exciting soon to be movie???



[VoteSkipper]

@harveyshideout ... 4 australians?! XD

[meady200]

@harveyshideout 1,536 likes and you concentrate on the four dislikes? Why?! In your own way, you are being as negative as they are!

[cactusjack20]

@meady200 your whole post is negative

[MadOldPete]

@harveyshideout I wouldn't be surprised if it's just the closeness of the like and dislike buttons combined with 4 people's erratic mousework.

[Pepitobenito]

@harveyshideout People will dislike absolutely anything and everything on Youtube, no matter how high the quality. Why? It's a reflection of the miserable life they lead I suspect.

[DiarrheaChain]

@harveyshideout Trolls?

[mrjkdeyoung]

@DiarrheaChain Yes, read the book.

[TheOnesWeLoveTheMost]

When is the trailer coming out ? I'm totally freaking ! Can;t wait . this is gonna be so awesome

[xxRawShotz]

[faggisthehaggis]

[chlomiester364]

I love the hobbit

[akadaka69]

[MrFatalSilence]

If I lived in New Zealand I would go hiking at least three times a week and would wear a Lord of the Rings costume every time.

[LOTR802]

Love it and yeah

[GokuVsPiccolo]

New Zealand IS Middle-Earth

[SATANECRONOMICUS]

[rkrokberg]

[jilijub]

Damn, I thought I was going to faint the first blog.

[TheVampireFreddo]

PETER JACKSON I LOVE YOU FOR POSTING THESE!

[ZoLiDoXz]

[TheAndiePerson]

Man the way they talk about how exhausting their job is it makes me wonder how Peter did it for 14 months straight.

[icsk8grrl]

hobbit fans should pool our money and buy our poor exhausted Peter a massage chair <3 keep up the good work master Jackson!

[phr33ky]

This man is pure genius... such vision. Very glad to see him at the helm because I know he will give 150%
