The Hobbit

Leave it to Peter Jackson to put Bombadil in these ones as filler after cutting him from LotR for time.

I don’t think that PJ will put Bombadil in any of the 3 Hobbit movies. Now if he was doing a bridge film between the Hobbit films and the 3 LOTR films then maybe but it doesn’t sound like that’s what he’s doing. If the character with the hedgehog is who SanDragon is talking about that’s Sylvester McCoy (the 7th Doctor in Doctor Who) as Radagast the Brown, shown in the image below.

Who is that at 1:21 then? Riding a sled pulled by giant hares? Holding a little critters paw in the scene immediately following?

It was my first impression. It wouldn’t be my first wrong impression. :slight_smile:

Oh, well ( I guess I should have noticed a new page!)

Tickets are on sale right now! go, quick quick, they’re selling out!

I was hoping that, like the Avengers model, they would offer a pre-sale DVD and theatre ticket bundle. I’d be ballin’ like Dwalin for that deal. :smiley:

Seems we can listen to The Hobbit soundtrack now.

Online streaming available here.

Give it a listen there ( and back again) .
