blimey - i managed to remember my pass
 Great call on Martin. Aye.. David Tenant hamming it up as a merry elf tickles the fancy... I cannot imagine for one momment they'd cut Beorn out... Btw..they are shooting it Digital 3D? Any thoughts on this? Avatar was very immersive - but i saw Alice in Wonderland 3d (admittedly they bolted the 3D element on in Post...) and that was very diaspointing. In theory though ..and its a "big IF Theory"... but if (in theory) they can get a look that is more fantastical..and rather more light with the use of 3D in the hobbit..i think that might work quite well to differentiate it from the LOTR.. Though of course its also a worry...isnt it? (3D) Anyway... perhaps one fine day..before my beard is grey and reaches my toes... and all the roads lead to one final road... that doesn't forever go on and on... I might actually get to see what they finally came up with  best BB Last edited by Butterbeer : 10-26-2010 at 08:07 AM. |

Benedict Cumberbatch is said to give Smaug a voice.
Hm, he's got an interesting voice but I'm not sure I can see a dragon in him. Nice twist though, to have the two Sherlock-characters up against one another when Bilbo speaks to Smaug. But if he is to voice the Necromancer as well, then that role will have a speaking part and that suggests to me that the White Council vs. Necromancer scenes will be a substantial plot-line in the new movie.

I am sooooooo jealous!!! *goes off to look for David Tennant and Chris Eccleston* oh, for the record, here's a pic of mBilbo, as the parlance went when the LOTR movies came out ("movie" Bilbo - used when people said Aragorn did something, and it was only in the movie, not the books, so it was mAragorn that did that thing ) I'm quite happy with that choice - I didn't know who he was, but he sure looks the part!

I hear Stephen Fry will be playing the Master of Laketown. Would be awesome, he's gonna have so much fun with that role...

Barliman, grand to see yerz.
3d? Oh dear. Never mind. I suspect Radagast may be lined up for a bit part in The Hunt for Gollum, or whatever they're going to call the in-between one. Oh, and Bill Nighy as Smaug = also spot on. Last edited by The Gaffer : 10-26-2010 at 10:00 AM. |

I wonder how much of that kickback to Warner Bros. is going to the unions ... they're probably paying some type of huge fee for SAG members to appear.
Well, I'm glad it's staying in NZ.

Fair enough, when you consider the massive wedge they are going to make from it.

Why wouldn't they?
Silly Tess, always asking the wrong questions.

 As a side note, I really hope they do something neat for Beorn. He's such a cool character. |

Maybe Beorn have a massive wedgie. All that polymorphing plays havoc with the gusset.

OK guys - seriously, what's the best way to start a drive to get Tennant as a tipsy elf in the Hobbit movie?
But maybe there's a downside - his scenes might carry off the whole movie!

That's rather easy to answer Rian -
Use the Power of Twitter - possibly in conjunction with a facebook group... and follow up with a threat of strike action against 'The Intolerable Discrimination and Restrictive Practices relating to the use of Ex Doctor Who Actors' by Warner Bros and certain Aussie Unions... If David Tennant has a twitter page... we (Herein called The People's Merry Elf Movement should spam it with the suggestion and support for His casting in this role ... and @RL it back to The Hobbit twitter pages...

I'm sure everyone has already seen this, so let me present it as Exhibit A that Leonard Nimoy should be cast as Thranduil.
