So we’ve had the first amazing trailer and now we get the first poster for Peter Jackson’s new movie, The Hobbit. I decided to put the teaser trailer artwork in a separate post as Apple did such a terrible job getting the trailer out, it’s been an age since that went up so I thought [...]

Richard Armitage as Thorin – New pic from The Hobbit

the hobbit thorin richard armiage

Richard Armitage’s Thorin Oakenshield is the latest of the cast from The Hobbit to be revealed straight from the set of Peter Jackson’s film. I appreciate this way of introducing the ‘first look’ to each of the characters in this way as opposed to a blurry telephoto lens shot from a few miles away. This way [...]

I love the marketing campaign that Warner Bros. are using for The Hobbit as they’re really involving the fans giving us as much of a look at what we can expect as they possible can yet without giving too much away.

Seeing the first official production images to come out of the New Zealand set of The Hobbit had a far greater effect on me than I anticipated.

Legolas - Orlando Bloom

The Hobbit – Gandalf Goes 3d

Gandalf (Ian McKellen) Goes 3d

Love this picture of Ian McKellen. It was released a couple of weeks ago but what with Cannes and all the madness around it, I never found a second to put it up. It shows Ian McKellen dressed as Gandalf in his 3d glasses. It’s almost as good as seeing The Queen in hers! The [...]
