Marian Schedenig 8,191 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Then again, LotR had some pretty bad posters too:Even some of the major ones that ended up as DVD covers were rather shabby. They started out with some brilliant posters for FOTR, and some great teasers later on (Aragorn in full king's armor riding toward the Black Gate), but in general, they degarded more and more into cheap floating head arrangements.

KK 3,307 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 For the DVD covers, its only the TTT one that I didn't really like.I mean I really liked the RotK DVD cover:And there were some fantastic teasers for all 3 films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KK 3,307 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Great news!They really must have a lot of material for these films. 3 films with Extended Editions. But I'm glad they're sticking with the EE's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incanus 5,714 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I bet we get a few more scenes of Dwarf in full comedy action and see couple of more frames of the Great Goblin falling down the tunnels before he lands on the Dwarves. Oh and the ritualistic shaving of beards of Kili and Thorin, who think it is cooler to have a short beard 'cause the ladies dig it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crumbs 14,306 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Yeah, I'd guess the extended editions are just 20 or so minutes longer, and unlike the LOTR EE's that were carefully crafted and still excluded lots of scenes, the Hobbit EE's will just have EVERYTHING thrown in (even if it's rubbish and deserved to be deleted).It's purely a marketing thing now; the consumer EXPECTS extended editions, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SF1_freeze 131 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 that whole 2 minute frodo & gandalf dialogue is in my top 3 favorite scenes from fotr! brilliantly scored too.I completely wholeheartedly agree. You probably won't belive me but this part of dialog is the main thing i took with me after the first viewing. Whenever i thought about the film it still remained the highlight (the original scene in Moria as well as the repeat on Amon Hen when Frodo decides to leave the company).

Stunning.Considering they shot most of LOTR 12-13 years before The Hobbit, the fact that so many of the actors look identical is quite amazing.

Incanus 5,714 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Radagast looks batty as hell and that is the most flattering image we have seen of him thusfar in my opinion. They could have wiped the bird droppings from the right side of his face for the stamp picture.And there must be some mistake in there! No Kili stamp!!!

Incanus 5,714 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 No he serves as a lackey and a foot soldier for the Bunnies of Doom of course. He runs their errands although it may look the other way around. You are probably confusing debut with debutize Faleel, although I am sure you were just joking in the first place.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 What is people's obsession with Radagast anyway? He's likely to be in this film for no more then a few scenes anyway.Is it me or are these posters, stamps etc very much aiming for a kids audience?
