The Logistics of THE HOBBIT: An Unexpected Journey

The Logistics of THE HOBBIT: An Unexpected Journey

By Marty Shaw on December 29, 2011

Yes, the title says logistics, which is usually a very boring word, but Peter Jackson has such passion for what he’s doing that it shines through when he talks about The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey so this little behind-the-scenes look at shooting on location in New Zealand is actually interesting, especially when Hobbiton turns out [...]

THE LORD OF THE RINGS: WAR IN THE NORTH – Another Lackluster LOTR title?

By Alex Riviello on October 16, 2011

Snowblind Studios recently came to NYC to show off The Lord of the Rings: War in the North, with a fully playable level in tow. This is obviously the latest title in what’s become a huge gaming franchise, and if it feels like they’ve done all they can with it, you may be right. We’ve [...]

THE HOBBIT – An offer Evangeline Lilly Couldn’t Refuse

By Marty Shaw on October 6, 2011

Evangeline Lilly, who is in Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit, will probably be making movies forever because she apparently has a hard time saying no, which resulted in a few upcoming films instead of the long-term vacation she had originally planned.

Evangeline Lilly talks THE HOBBIT

By Marty Shaw on September 19, 2011

Evangeline Lilly seemed to step quietly out of the spotlight when Lost ended its run on ABC, but she’s stepping back into the public eye in a major way with a new role in Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit, even though she’s worried that she’ll end up being a “black mark” on the project.
