The Hobbit

We’ve seen set photos of STAR TREK Untitled sequel where young Spock battled the villain played by Benedict Cumberbatch, (Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, War Horse) star of one of my favorite shows, Sherlock. I think Cumberbatch is a force of nature that’s slowly but surely getting Hollywood’s attention and as you know, the thesp voices [...]

Been a while! Finally! Peter Jackson unleashed the 6th Video blog from the production of THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY, via facebook… 12 and a half minutes of behind-the-scenes footage! Can somebody say, nerdgasm?!..

And you thought the ambitious 2-parter prequel, THE HOBBIT, was already done with its casting process a long, long, time ago. Nope! It just got even better because Hollywood Reporter said that the ever so awesome Billy Connolly (those of us fans of Boondock Saints movies think he rocks socks off) has joined the cast [...]

Awesome! Yahoo got its hands on this new photo above of THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY (watch the trailer). As you can see, it’s Martin Freeman as Bilbo Baggins and actors William Kircher, Graham McTavish, James Nesbitt and John Callen playing some of the dwarves…

USATODAY is on a roll! Its 2012 preview also includes this new shot of Martin Freeman as Bilbo Baggins in THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY (watch the epic trailer again) Where do you think he’s going?..

The geek god, Peter Jackson recently talked to The Herald Sun about the 2-part Tolkien prequel adaptation, THE HOBBIT, which starts with THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY  arriving later this year, specifically about taking the directing job from Guillermo Del Toro who he collaborated with until GDT decided to leave the project..

I’m vouching for songwriter/Flight Of The Conchords genius Bret McKenzie to win Oscar for his MUPPETS song ‘Man of Muppet’. That song deserves more than just a golden statuette, that’s how awesome it is. Comingsoon got the chance to talk to McKenzie who, as may you recall, is also part of the upcoming THE HOBBIT: [...]
