The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (2012)

This Christmas will be an even more special one than the others. The Lord of the Rings fans are going wild because the 'prequel' The Hobbit is finally hitting the big screen. Judging by the trailers, this is going to be one goose bump inducing experience. As one of the people who was introduced (of course by my brother) to the Middle Earth with The Hobbit, I am extra excited. But I must admit I forgot about the details of the book as I read it when I was 11, almost 12 years ago. I am looking forward to change that in the following 6 days because only a week later, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is here for our consideration. I have been in this strange mood to watch the trilogy again for the last couple of weeks, I even started wearing my Evenstar pendant unaware of the actual release date. I guess my body is more aware of my Elvish side than my brain...

As always with LOTR series the official website for The Hobbit is magnificent. Even if you don't go all fan-girl over it like me, just go to www.thehobbit.com to listen to that heart warming Shire melody by Howard Shore...

Here are my screen captures of the home page, like www.lordoftherings.net when it first came out, the background changes from character to character:

 As for the trailers, Misty Mountains, Torin's Song is what makes every hair on my body to stand up. There is something really magical about that melody that makes me extremely excited and extremely sad at the same time.
P.S. Pay attention to the genius subtlety of the music shift at the last part of the trailer.




Watch The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey by Peter Jackson in theaters on December 14th, 2012...
