Holy crap… I can’t even begin to tell you how pumped I am about the upcoming “The Hobbit” movies. My love for the original “The Lord Of The Rings” trilogy is probably only eclipsed by my psychotic passion for the original Star Wars trilogy. As many of you know, I call “The Return of the King” the single greatest accomplishment in the history of film (when you take ALL the arts that go into making a movie like direction, acting, visual effects, cinematography, writing, set design, costuming, music etc.)
Peter Jackson isn’t returning to direct (which I still have a hard time understanding), but I still feel safe with the movie being in the hands of Guillermo del Toro.
Anyway, TheOneRing put up pictures of the first signs of life from the project. The Shire is being rebuilt! Check it out:
They have a couple of other pictures from the set construction if you want to check them out. Just head over here.
So how pumped are you for the new movies? Or are you not jumping on the band wagon just yet?
