All of us suffering from chronic LOTR withdrawal can now watch the Hobbit trailer and feel a wee soupcon of relief! Check it out on Youtube....... it looks fantastic, doesn't it? I had no idea dwarves could be so......winsome!
Just hearing Gandalf's and Gollum's voices gave me shivers. I hate that we have to wait till next December to see the first installment. Looked pretty viewer-ready on the trailer, if you ask me. I suppose they haven't finished production on the second installment, and want to issue the films within a year on one another at the latest.
It totally boggles my mind that "Fellowship of the Ring" came out in Dec. of 2001, only three months after 9/11. Hurricane Katrina had not yet hit us. Bob had not yet been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Emma and Martha were in junior high.
And now, here are are, awaiting Peter Jackson's next addition to the Tolkien saga films. I guess I will need to reread The Hobbit sometime between now and next holiday season.
