We were there, Blu-ray Ultraviolet code in hand, to watch it all play out through the magic of the Internet and Weta (well, probably-- they tend to be involved in every cool Hobbit-related thing at this point).  filed under: the hobbit

 published: 2013-03-15The Hobbit Blu-ray Infograph Gets Up Close And Personal With The Characters The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey has been prepping for its epic Blu-ray and DVD release on March 22. To celebrate, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has put together another awesome infograph taking a look at some of the characters living in Middle-earth.

 published: 2013-03-12The Hobbit Blu-ray Infograph Reveals Facts About Hobbits, Elves And Dwarves If history is any indication, home entertainment sets for Middle-earth oriented films have also always been pretty expansive and intricate and An Unexpected Journey seems as if it will follow the success of its Lord of the Rings counterparts. That’s a release that is certainly worth celebrating, and Warner Bros. Home Entertainment isn’t shirking on giving fans some excellent extras, including an infograph explaining the “unique features” of hobbits, dwarves, and elves. filed under: the hobbit
 published: 2013-03-04Watch Gary Busey Sing A Horny Hobbit Rap Song Earlier this year, we shared a video from The Busey Zone that showed Busey in a restful moment, on a lovely hillside pondering the lives of hobbits. f you thought that was the end of Busey's thoughts on the sex lives of hobbits, count yourself as very, very wrong.

 published: 2013-01-18Parody Video Explains How The Hobbit Should Have Ended Because J.R.R. Tolkien wrote The Hobbit before ever imagining that it would turn into The Lord of the Rings, the book really doesn't have that many details about what the One Ring really is. Sure, the story includes Gollum calling the ring his "Precious" and it still has the ability to turn its wearer invisible, but the subject of Sauron, Mordor, and Mount Doom never really come up in Tolkien's first Middle-earth book and the jewelry's history is never actually explained. filed under: the hobbit
 published: 2013-01-17The Hobbit Featurettes Take You Into The Making Of Gollum, The Goblin King And More Peter Jackson's Middle-earth films are thrilling and entertaining in their own right as adventure films, but they are also just as much about spectacle. And that's where the work of Weta Digital comes in. The visual effects company first got the opportunity to show off its skills with the Lord of the Rings trilogy and even before Andy Serkis' motion-captured Gollum appeared on screen for the first time audiences were floored by the visual wonder of it all. filed under: the hobbit
