The Official "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" movie thread *SPOILERS*

Re: The Official "The Hobbit" movie thread

I read that as a comment about the perils of passivism.


It never occurred to me until now, but that comment is made in the film through the Ents. The Ents' deciding at the Entmoot to not go to Isengard always bugged me, but I now have a way to reconcile it to the book. Merry gives the speech about how they are part of this world and need to do their part. Similar things could have been said to Tom B.

I think that's probably what bugs me the most about Tom B. and why I really have no use for the character. He had to know what was going to happen to middle-earth and it's peoples should Sauron gain possession of the ring, yet was more than willing to 'sit this one out'. It just made no sense to me that someone who supposedly loved middle-earth so much, was so willing to do nothing while everything he supposedly loved was facing total destruction....esp. since he was the one guy who could ensure that wouldn't happen

It looks like it's just a matter of time before Orlando Bloom is officailly cast as Legolas.

Yeah, saw that this morning. The part he will play as far as time on screen will be minimal and thats cool. It won't toss things off too much so I'm good with him making a cameo.

No, Orlando Bloom won't toss off many things...

It is PJ standing in front of a monitor which is capturing the filming of the "Riddles in the Dark" scene. Bilbo is in there if you look.

Saw that yesterday and meant to post it. PJ said he will be posting a video soon on FB. Looking forward to seeing what that might be.

I think it will be. My hopes and expectations are high which I usually try to keep down but I can't with these two films.

Brings back memories from getting the first spy report pics from the first films. I have a feeling this is going to be a very fun movie to watch. I think Peter is going to capture the atmosphere of the novel perfectly.

I agree with ya I think PJ will nail the overall feeling of The Hobbit but also make it feel a bit more like LOTR than the book does.
