You’ll never guess where The Hobbit was filmed

November 22, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Did I say “You’ll never guess where The Hobbit was filmed”? – if that’s true the marketing agency for Air New Zealand is weeping. Last year we had Peter Jackson and the WETA Workshop crew give an unexpected briefing for for the airline. It’s a year later and we’ve got a sequel to the viral […]

Posters: Adriana Melo’s The Hobbit

September 8, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I rather like this busy The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey poster design from Adriana Melo. It’s on sale from Melo’s site. I can’t be the only one who wishes Adriana fills in a little more of the site; especially the home section so we can discover a little more about the artist!

Black Milk does The Hobbit

January 18, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Geek Native readers will be familiar with the Black Milk style by now. This clever fashion company is really making geek chic. They take iconic geeky images and turn them into leggings, dresses and swimsuits. They’re expensive enough to be exclusive while being perfect eye candy for bloggers to leap on. The difference between this […]

How The Hobbit should have ended

January 18, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Tiny risk of spoiler here. Tiny. You have to be someone who doesn’t know how Lord of the Rings ends, doesn’t know The Hobbit and can’t guess at one important scene. Worth watching for the song at the end. No, really. Comment below.

First picture: The Desolation of Smaug

December 9, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is the first official picture from the second of the three The Hobbit movies. The first movie is The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey and the second is The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug. I think Samug will be popular. He’s voiced by Benedict Cumberbatch; star of Sherlock and Star Trek into Darkness.
