Just for completeness, I feel that The Tolkien Forum should somewhere mention the first ever Hobbit movie: The first film adaptation of The Hobbit was created by Gene Deitch in 1966. The film was produced by Bill Snyder and took less than a month to create. The film was approximately 12...

Basically, Peter Jackson had nothing to do with it. ----------------------- Here is the comment I found here and which led me to videos:

1.Both quests led to a mountain in The Hobbit, the goal is the Lonely Mountain. In Lotr, the goal is mount doom. Both are mountains, albeit Orodruin being a Volcano. 2.Both quests had a fire in the mountains In the case of The Hobbit, it was Smaug. In Lotr it was the fire of the cracks of...

I love TH movies... I see movies to enjoy them, not to check how much CGI there is in the movie, so usually I dont notice if the CGI is good or not. I think that it is a good choice to show Gandalf's adventures when he wasn't with the company because I want to know what happened to other peuple...

Anne Tjerk Popkema translated The Hobbit and LOTR in the Frisian Languge, an official language in The Netherlands! Dit klassike 'berneboek foar folwoeksenen' fan J.R.R. Tolkien is de prolooch op The Lord of the Rings, de ferneamde trilogy dy't de ôfrûne jierren sa bot yn de belangstelling stien...

I recently got hold of this book by John D. Rateliff. Is it any good for it looks very interesting...! Has anyone of you knowledge about this book? I am looking forward to learn about your comments.

I believe this was used as the dust jacket for the first British edition. However the US publishers (Hodder and Stoughton) preferred another of Tolkien's designs: The first design is rightly regarded as a design classic. I love the way Tolkien breaks the near symmetry with Laketown. It...

I am engaged in a discussion on supposed contradictions between the hobbit and the rest of Tolkien writings and I was looking for other posters opinions. I hold Tolkien's views like he said In letters 214 of supposed contradictions “Facts that may appear in my record, I believe, in no case due...

Did anyone ever play this? Apparently it came out when the LOTR movies were first coming out. I love this guy's videos and this made me chuckle at how bad the game really looks...

https://www.hobbitshop.com/collections/rings A friend of mine has been having a rough time dealing with the Hobbit Shop and I was wondering if anyone else has had any similar problems. Here's a brief explanation. They had bought Aragorn's ring. When the package arrived, it contained the wrong...

No question here: just me sharing some information. I got hold of the digitized version of said reading and here are some impressions just in case it would interest somebody. With great results, the speaker simulated (many!) different voices to differentiate between characters in the story. I...

First Published in 1937, Tolkien's enchanting adventure 'there and back again,' planted the seeds for its epic sequel "The Lord of the Rings."

Have something to say to your fellow TTF members? This is the place to do so.

What wasn't said: 1.) What Gandalf hoped to gain by getting rid of Smaug. Some suggest that he didn't want Smaug to ally with Sauron, but that theory seems unlikely. Sauron was known as the Necromancer, and I don't think Gandalf outright suspected the Necromancer of being Sauron. I know...

He's not a villain, but his gold-lust nearly wrecked everything (though it also may have saved everything as he brought Dain and without Dain, they would have lost the Battle of Five Armies.)

I personally love the book more than the movies of the hobbit. So it makes me super mad when they change the plot of the books and put Legolas in it. Don't get me wrong I love Legolas but it just wasn't the same with him in there. Does anybody no why they did that?

This is a fanedit version of the original trilogy directed by Peter Jackson, the length was reduced from nine to five hours divided into two parts of approximately two and a half hours each. The integrity of the script and references to the original work were preserved. Discarded: •...

After considerable searching of sites cant seem to find info on the Houghton-Mifflin slipcase edition dated 1966. If you know of a thorough complete clearinghouse for this information please do tell Best Stim
