Hobbit News

I just found this article that gives the dates and titles for the upcoming Hobbit films. The first film, due out December 14, 2012, is called The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. The second, due out December 14, 2013, is called The Hobbit: There and Back Again.

It also gives most of the cast that has signed on. Orlando Bloom, Elijah Wood, Cate Blanchett, Ian McKellen, Christopher Lee and Hugo Weaving are all reprising their roles from the LOTR trilogy. Most of these are not in the book. I'm not quite sure how I feel about Peter Jackson adding these characters into the movie version. I understand that it will provide some continuity between the LOTR movies and this new movie but I also am a stickler for translating the book as accurately as possible to the screen.

What do you guys think about the adaptation of book to screen? Are you a purist or do you give lots of "artistic license" to directors?

New Movie Monday (on Tuesday)

Ever since I was a little kid, I have dreamed of a Thor movie. Well, here it is. I hope that it will be worthy of my childhood dreams of this day. What do you think?

New Movie Monday (On Tuesday)

Ok, so nothing coming out this week really intrigues me, so I found this one that is coming out in a couple weeks. Priest is based on a graphic novel and looks interesting. What do you think?

Game of Thrones on HBO

I've been seeing the previews for Game of Thrones on HBO for a few months now and thought I would read the book in preparation of the event. I must say that in the debut episode last night they did an admirable job of really sticking to the story from the book. This is by far my most anticipated show since Battlestar Galactica and so far...WOW! The characters are well cast and are being developed remarkably, especially for only one episode. This is a story of intrigue, betrayal, power (the struggle to get it, keep it or reclaim it). I can't wait for the next episode to air. If you haven't seen it, watch it on a re-brodcast. You will be hooked.

New Pirates of the Caribbean and Thor

Pirates of the Caribbean
Have Jack and his mates jumped the shark? Maybe. We'll see with this one.


Thor
This is another build up movie making its way to The Avengers written and directed by the awsome Joss Whedon.
