The Hobbit [2012]

[Varðr]

It has been over 10 years since LoTR 1 and roughly 8 years from the whole trilogy... So I was pretty excited when I saw The Hobbit trailer... If there is any Tolkien fans around here....

DISCUSS!!!

The Shadow of Morgoth commands you!!!

YES! The Hobbit: Part One- An Unexpected Journey. I cannot wait for this movie. I've known about it for quite awhile though, as there is another forum I go on that has quite a few avid LOTR/Hobbit fans on it (including me). To prepare for this momentous movie occasion I am re-reading all the Tolkien books I own, which would be: The Silmarillion, The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings trilogy.
I'm especially excited because I was too young to see LOTR when those movies came out in theaters and by the time the Hobbit comes out I might actually be able to DRIVE to go see it in the theater! I'll be able to drive to see part 2 at least, its iffy about whether I'll be able to for part 1 or not.... ;D

At any rate its bound to be an epic movie and the trailer looks Awsomeatic. ;D

Some1 too has actually read the Silmarillion??



+ Exalt for that! :>

At this very moment, I'm re-reading Silmarillion but I was thinking that I should read other Tolkien books as well E.g The Hobbit, LoTR (seen the movies.. not read the books *pokerface*), The Children of Húrin and Unfinished Tales of Númenor and Middle-earth.

Do you listen any music while you read books??

I like to listen "fantasy music" while I read... e.g Summoning, Dargaard etc...

+ This one is pretty kewl too!!

I'm also re-reading the Sil, its a magnificent book to be sure. the Lord of the Rings books iare just as good as the movies (I think the books are better) and the Hobbit is great too.

I love listening to music while I read. Except that whenever I do that the song gets imprinted on my memory that it goes with that book. So whenever I hear the song again I automatically think of the book I read while listening to it. This can be both amusing and annoying. xD

I'm really looking forward to the Hobbit! I've seen all of the Lord of the Rings movies, and I've read and own the Lord of the Rings, the Hobbit, the Silmarillion, and The Children of Hurin, but I don't have that one because I checked it out from the library and read it. I also listen to music while I read too, mostly metal, but I listen to a variety of other music on my iPod.

Someday I'll read all LoTR books... Right now I'm reading Mass Effect books and comics.

Metal huh? What kind of metal may I ask?

Sure! I love to listen to symphonic metal, heavy metal, folk metal, and sometimes a little bit of hair guitar. My favorite bands are Nightwish, Metallica, Epica, Hammerfall, and Trans-Siberian Orchestra.

*Today's off topic moment*

Cool!

I <3 (Symphonic) Black metal, Traditional metal and folk metal!! I like bands like Blutklinge, Burzum, Dark Fortress, Mayhem, Covenant, Kotiteollisuus etc.

You said you like Nightwish... Q: Anette Olzon or Tarja Turunen?

[quazie89]

Awesome! I'll definitely have to check those bands out sometime! I'm not for sure if I like Tarja or Anetta better, though. Tarja might've been a better opera singer, but I think you can understand Anetta better then Tarja sometimes, so I like them both.

Ok, Both are good singers but I think I like Tarja more.... When Anette came, the band's sound and style changed...

[quazie89]

Yeah, I miss their old style, too, but I also like their new style. It's hard for me to decide.
