Re: The Official "The Hobbit" movie thread

Billy Connolly has joined the cast in the role of Dain Ironfoot, a great dwarf warrior and cousin of Thorin Oakenshield.

“We could not think of a more fitting actor to play Dain Ironfoot, the staunchest and toughest of Dwarves, than Billy Connolly, the Big Yin himself. With Billy stepping into this role, the cast of The Hobbit is now complete. We can’t wait to see him on the Battlefield!”

I kind of like that choice myself he seems very Dwarvish to be honest.

One of my favourite announcements so far, I really like him, he should bring a lot to the character.

Been kinda slow in Hobbit news so I thought you TinTin lovers would like to know who's directing the second one!

Yeah, I heard that a while back before TinTin came out. I enjoyed the first one and will see the second.

Re: The Official "The Hobbit" movie thread

Yup TinTin was awesome. Can't wait to see what Jackson will do now that he is in the Director's role

I would expect mostly the same as what we saw if for nothing else to keep the same feel to it.

Re: The Official "The Hobbit" movie thread

I haven't informed myself about the Hobbit yet.
So will this be a movie like LOTR or for children.
Because the dwarfes look really stupid like the whole Narnia crap.

Re: The Official "The Hobbit" movie thread

Somebody please ban this fool. Comparing Hobbit to Narnia.

Re: The Official "The Hobbit" movie thread

Yup, dumbest post i've seen in a while.

Re: The Official "The Hobbit" movie thread

Better than your useless post, if you have nothing to say topic related pls shut the ____ up. Not everyone shares the same opinion as you do...

You just said yourself you were uninformed. The best course of action for you would be to buy a copy of The Hobbit and just read it. Tolkien wrote The Hobbit before writing LOTR. It's essentially Bilbo's story of how he found the ring, among other things.
