Two feathers, that's pretty. I used to study the font in the books as a teenager, and I write birthday cards and that in elvish font. A friend of mine has a tattoo in elvish on her foot.

Picture the scene ... you're at work (in a shop ) at the front of the store you hear deep singing ... you think that sounds a bit like Rains ... then you think no wait it the song from the Hobbit ... cool...

Then you realise it's just the start and it's on a loop !!

They were advertising a home cinema centre ... I now never want to hear that song again ! Thank you Metro Centre management !!!

 

 

And again today disbeliefnoblehfurious

I'm with Paul on this one.
Although come to think of it, the millions of fans obsessed with the original Trilogy would have killed Tolkien anyway.

Thanks Two Feathers, it's really pretty! If I had a loved one I'd definitely try to impress him that way, if he was a geek and appreciated it of course! But alas, haven't been stolen yet.

Not directly Hobbit related, but still LotR. I briefly studied the old elvish language Quenya, used by the High Elves. I managed to learn the Quenya Tengwar(alphabet), and the correct placement of vowels and punctuation. So, although I can not write the elvish language, I can write english words and sentences using the Quenya style and alphabet.
To demonstrate I have taken seven user names from this thread.
Apologies to those not chosen, but I could only fit seven on the page. I will consider requests though.
The font is one I am like, I can also do a similar font to that used on the One Ring.
1. Macha
2.Wild Seed
3.Andrea
4.Lyanna Stark
5.YvyB....... I have written your full name Yvs, as your user name is rather short.........:)
6.Rygar
7.Aegon the Conqueror.


 Oh my Godswood, Feathers, this is totally awesome, you rock! biggrin

So I saw this trailer before Skyfall and I think I am actually starting to like Armitage as Thorin. He looks and sounds badass and I think he is gonna be great. Freeman is going to own the role of Bilbo. Oscar nom.

I am not so sure that these film will get the critcal acclaim that LOTR did. It seems so much more CGI than the Jackson's other Tolkein adaptations

I think the Academy was pressured to give all the awards to RotK. AND i agree. The Hobbit will not receive as much with all the great films out this year.

I felt the same way about return of the king. Sense when does the academy of motion picture sciences get pressured?

Saw it today with Aegon, it was good, a bit overwhelming with all the special effects, but manages to draw you in just like lotr.

The critics can suck it! I discussed some of their complaints in my review and why it is irrelevant. That movie is a lot of fun.

BTW did you guys see Figwit?

Just back from the cinema, still soaking it in. The Hobbit is bloody brilliant. Saw it in 3D, and like Mags said it totally sucks you into Middle Earth. And what a joy to be back there. I went in with relatively low expectations because of some negative vibes given off by the critics, but within half an hour I was in geek heaven.
See it soon!

Peter Jackson redeems himself with this film. Took him long enough to finally get it right. Very excited for the next one. I need Beorn!

Saw it Saturday, not in 3D, it was sold out, sorry your Grace.  Richard Armitage as Thorin I thought was awesome, loved when he sang.  Fili is my fav Dwarf (Dean O'Gorman), liked him very much.  The scenes that show the gold were awesome, using that word a lot about this movie.  Fav scene was the last scene with the Goblin King, my hardest laugh of the movie.
