KK 3,307 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Is it me or are these posters, stamps etc very much aiming for a kids audience?You only realize that now? God, you're slow! Slower than KK... and he's Canadian!Careful now Bloodboal...you don't want to mess with us Canadians....And I doubt Radagast will be in there for just a "few scenes"...

Faleel 5,368 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. I was light-heartedly correcting your "error", I believe the world you are looking for is Deputizing, not debutizing? I could be wrong though.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 How has Hugo Weaving not aged at all? 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.It's called make-up.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Evangeline Lily is great in LOST but she hasn't done anything of the same caliber since. She's been continuously getting small roles, and I don't expect this one to be any different. Although I guess Real Steel was more of a supporting role.I follow the thread because I'm actually a fan of the book and the Lord Of The Rings films. You'll never see me in a Star Wars thread.

Jonesy 55 Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 So, I had heard of an alternate "Production Diary N°8" for The Hobbit, but I didn't know how much stuff was included in it and we didn't get to see! Apparently, we could see the Master Of Laketown, Bard, Smaug's treasure, Radgy doing "roof surfing" (yeah, I'm not joking!)...Yes, Smaug's treasure exists.http://musingsfrombr...-video-8-stillsBTW, there is a new poster: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incanus 5,716 Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Yes! Thanks for the pics both of you! Stephen Fry looks really suitably oily as the Master of Laketown in the picture and the dragon hoard is pretty much what I hoped and expected it to be. Tolkien makes it out to be enormous with hills of coins in that cavernous chamber. The pics sure look it will be like that. That poster looks like something a fan could have made out of the banner on the Hobbit trailer site with the wallpaper generator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incanus 5,716 Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Hehehe Orlando will be so jealous! I bet PJ had to invent something equally acrobatic for Leggy in these films once Orlando saw that footage. In other news! Bifur's axe head leaves his head at some point!!!I bet they just forgot to glue the axe head on the day this picture was taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonesy 55 Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Thanks for the pics!Oh, and checking your link, there are more pics from the alternate production diary N°8 (apparently, it's Bard doing "roof surfing", not Radgy, so that's some sort of a relief). More pics here.You're welcome , but I think I had seen that pics on theonering.net.That poster looks like something a fan could have made out of the banner on the Hobbit trailer site with the wallpaper generator.I know, it's so disappointing...

KK 3,307 Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 That's a good running time. And that set of photos was actually rather satisfying. I like the look of Stephen Fry and Bard and the sets look great. The poster gets a big meh from me (looks like something lifted from the wallpaper generator).But what's with Bilbo's really modern robes? I mean even when he's sneaking into a dragon's lair to steal some treasure, it looks like the thief needs to do it in style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gkgyver 1,646 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 I will start a petition demanding to leave Evangeline Lilly on a deserted island for the rest of her life.How stupid is that? "Damn, now we have this completely invented character that we added to capture female demographics, and nothing to do for her! Let's give her something from this Bilbo dude, won't matter."

Wojo 2,453 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 As I recall, there were many more dwarves captured by the spiders, say, all of them, and yet that set includes only Fili and Kili as opposed to all of them. How else deeply do you want to read into changes made for the movie based on a Lego set? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brónach 1,302 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 The second one.The Hobbit LEGO sets.One of them reveals a "possible" change to the story which I'm not happy about.Apparently, it will be Legolas and Tauriel rescuing the dwarves from the spiders, and not Bilbo. If that's indeed the case, that will really affect Bilbo's evolution as a character in a bad way, in my opinion. I hope that's not the case...There was a picture of Bilbo with Sting covered in spider web.Plus they purposely had Sting without nothing written on it, supposedly because it's to be written afterwards.

Jay 37,382 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Maybe Tauriel and Legolas are just going to help Bilbo free everyone, and not be the sole heros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incanus 5,716 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 It's Tauriel, not Turiel! T-a-u-r-i-e-l!And it will be rather lame if Legolas and Tauriel rob Bilbo of his big moment when he saves the Dwarves from the spiders. Let's hope the LEGO set doesn't represent the scene as shot for the film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
