the hobbit

When the Lord of the Rings movies came out I felt the three were as close to perfection as possible, but when the three Hobbit movies came out I was disappointed. It's not that such a thin book was stretched out into three movies, which seems to be a common objection. I loved the added content...

:D Besdies, was there anything more mentioned about this battle? Is there anything mentioned about these diamonds or the Old Took? He's a mysterious character. If there's more I don't remember please tell me! Been a while since I read the Hobbit.

I figured this deserved a thread of its own and I couldn't find any so I created one. Mods, feel free to merge with any existing thread. Anyway, I watched this yesterday for the first time in a while and I'm amazed at how different it seems from the last time I saw it. Things I forgot about the...

I found a rendition of The Hobbit that in my opinion is better than the trash PJ made...enjoy

There was a facsimile of the first edition published in 2020. Did anyone get it or look at it? I think I will pick a copy as I'm interested in all the changes that were made. For instance, in the chapter "Roast Mutton" there is a mention of "old castles with an evil look, as if they had been...

Mainly known for Moomins comic strips and author of it. But she also illustrated other works including The Hobbit. I read "according to reddit, so source is questionable" but that reason Gollum looks like this, is because the first edition didnt have (small slimy creature) reference. But...

Anyone familiar with this? I have an opportunity to bid on a copy at a local auction.

Hello there fellow Tolkien fan! I recently covered an often overlooked topic about the Were-worms briefly mentioned by Bilbo in The Hobbit book and also (wrongfully according to me) depicted in The Hobbit film Trilogy. In the video I go through the quote by Bilbo and try to discuss what...

I was surprised with this video how much Tolkien seemed like a hobbit himself. 51:29 (John Tolkien) Absent minded, One time John went with his father to the bank after closing and they opened the door and handed Tolkien his last 2 or 3 pipes and gloves and things he had left by mistake. 57:35...

Here is a link to leather bound quality editions: http://www.ludlowbookbinders.co.uk/ludlowlibrary.asp I think it is of interest to all who enjoy the books and are looking for something special!

A Lord of the Rings total conversion mod for Mount & Blade 2 Bannerlord, that brings the world of Tolkien into the game This includes: characters, locations, weapons etc. from The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, Silmarillion and other works by Tolkien and media made for his universe. Planned...

At long last, I am finally able to share The Hobbit with my own little ones. I can't tell you how relieved and happy I was when they told me how much they liked it. But I never anticipated how many questions I would have to answer each and every time I read a chapter to them. Some nights I...

Someone with far greater creativity and patience -- not to mention money! -- than I have, made a series of vignettes illustrating The Hobbit: You can see the entire series (43 of them!) here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/xenomurphy/albums/72157715384565713

Hi elves, dwarfs, numenors, orcs and wizards! I'm Misha from Russia. I start to creating an interesting project about Tolkien's trilogy Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit. If you have free time, please answer a few questions. 1. What things, accessories or symbols (not persons) do you want to see...

LotR, The Hobbit, The Silmarillion, etc, have many amazing poems! What's your favourite poem? My favourite LotR poem is this one: There is an inn, a merry old inn Beneath an old grey hill And there they brew a beer so brown that the Man in the Moon himself came down One night to drink his...

Although it didn't live up to the lofty standards set by the score of The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit still had some decent tracks in it. I personally liked the Misty Mountains song by Richard Armitage and the rest of the cast. Chilling, and appropriate. I like how the theme was also born out...

Who is the necromancer in the hobbit movie?

And what are their names?

In this thread https://thetolkien.forum/threads/how-old-is-bilbo-in-the-lord-of-the-rings.7159/, it only discussed the timeline for the Lord of the Rings. I wanna know how old was Bilbo in the Hobbit?
