Hobbit Official Trailer

The movie itself will not be released until December 14, 2012 (!), but the trailer is just in time to add to our Christmas cheer!

Sounds good.

I’m eagerly awaiting Rick Atkinson’s third WWII ETO book.

Two reasons to muddle on. . . .

Christmas 2012? Really, a whole ‘nother year?!! They sure know how to tease.

It looks like they skipped the idea of making one of the dwarves bright blond…and no Legolas in evidence for the trailer… I’ve got hopes!

Of course, I’m also in love with how they did the song– “far o’re the misty mountains….”

I’ve been watching the animated version since I was tiny, and my mom was an original Tolkien fangirl so we grew up with the stories being told to us. High hopes!

c matt said, “They sure know how to tease.”

Hence the term “teaser” trailer. 😉

Foxfier, in the original book, “The Hobbit,” two of the dwarves were blonde: Fili and Kili. The trailer appears to deviate from the book’s description for them and for Thorin, who had a long beard. Thorin also should have been among the older dwarves of the group as he had been alive when Smaug took over the Lonely Mountain.

Hugo-I wish I still had the picture, he looked like Legolas had donated a wig. There’s a difference between Mini Viking and tresemme!

Oh, curse it– I got sucked into the internet wondering if “viking” was the proper comparison. (it is….)

So now I share the Lord of the Rings wiki. (book-based, not game-based–although if you feel like pissing off the Red Cross, LotRO is a good, free option.)
