Well, let's see. My brother asked, "Why is Thorin Oakenshield called Thorin Oakenshield?" right after it showed him defeating the Pale Orc.

I told someone just the other day that I have seen The Hobbit twice. The comment? "Oh, is that the new Harry Potter movie?"

I smiled and said nothing. There was no point in mentioning Tolkien or Middle-earth or Peter Jackson or Lord of the Rings. I would have gotten a blank stare.

I was told that a Friend of my Mom, wanted to ask about why the Hobbit film was made after LoTR. My Mom explained that she thinks that it's because the Hobbit book was written *after* the LoTR.

I did not have a chance to talk to my Mom's Friend, but I explained when they were written, and why the movies was done in reverse. I'm just waiting for more questions when my Mom and little sisters finally see the movie (Probably when it comes out on DVD...I'm hoping before because I want to see it soon!)

Not entirely related, but is. Mom and I were watching the newest Indiana Jones movie, the one with Cate Blanchett and that kid from the Transformer movies. Anyways I made a comment about how great of an actress Cate is, Mom looked at me and asked if she was the fairy queen from LoTR/Hobbit. I looked at her in shock that she'd call an elf a fairy, then she said 'You know what I am talking about.' ...'yes Mom I do...fairys and elves are two different things....'/sigh

Not a question but possibly the stupidest thing I've heard said about the Hobbit film is it's awful because it's not like LotR and it's geared towards children.

Ummmm.... hello?! Have you read the book?! Do you even know what the Hobbit is?

Yes that tends to drive me nuts then I go off on a tangent about which book was written first, and how Tolkien created his world.....All the while getting the eyes glazed over look from the people I'm talking to.

Yeah, I have nothing against it being for kids, I just wish they would have 'had more of/stuck closer to' the story. That is what really annoyed me about it.

I took my friend to see the Hobbit. She never read the books, but I had gotten her over the summer to watch every extended edition LotR movie with me. When we left, she asked the eagle question.

You watched the movie first? If so, that's why you don't see any thing wrong with it. I personally was quite disappointed with the movie....like my brother said:

Yeah, I have nothing against it being for kids, I just wish they would have 'had more of/stuck closer to' the story. That is what really annoyed me about it.


I probably would have loved The Hobbit movie if it had been more like the book, 'cause I really like the book. :\

Well, I had one of my friends from school ask me why Bilbo was younger looking in the Hobbit than in LOTR. I about killed my friend because two secomds previous I explained that the Hobbit was a prequel. Yikes....

"Are the spiders in here?" While at the scene in Gollum's Cave, "No, that will be in the next movie...in Mirkwood not in the caves beneath the Misty Mountians." -Me

The Hobbit dvd's are out and there is one for 3D. I was asked if I was getting that one. (already have the regular) I said I do not have a 3D television. "Oh, you need a special TV?"

It seems that even after being told multiple times, some people still think the Hobbit is a sequel, just because it was released after the trilogy.

This wasn't really a question, but i overheard some kid talking about the movie at school... He said something like, "yeah, steven jackson just can't make a short movie."
I almost killed* that person.

*not literally...
...all we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us...
