What can I say…..Thanks for the memories Sir Ian, its has been an unexpected journey for someone like me who had never heard of Tolkien when LOTR was filming. It was through the films that I discovered how interesting the book was, but it will be the films that will be held most dear to me because it is the actors, production crew and director and everyone else involved that helped shape a new generation of readers to the books.
Almost like being at the Grey Havens preparing for the journey into the west and then Gandalf dropping a bombshell of an announcement.
It is to be expected that his part in The Hobbit would end, the same can be said about Martin Freeman, Orlando Bloom, Luke Evans, Evangeline Lili.
I am glad that the release of the third Hobbit movie is still several months away, at least there is still time for reflection.
