Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit

I was looking on Pinterest and thought these were cool. :)




 

Do I Really Want To See The Third Movie?

*gasp* I have been thinking if I really want to see 'There and Back Again'. Actually I am dying to see it but at the same time, do I really want to see dwarves die (which I heard will happen since it happened in the books)? Do I want to go through the heartache at seeing my favorite characters die? 
I won't spoil it for you if you don't know what I'm talking about, but if you do, you may be agreeing with me on this. I tend to get really emotional in movies when people I really like die. Though I've never cried, I come really close to it.  I pray there is a happy ending because I am wondering if my heart can handle it.
I hope Fili and Kili don't die. I hope Thorin doesn't die. I know Bilbo doesn't die (he is in LOTR). 
I hope the guy 
with the hat that flips out (I forget his name), doesn't die. Really I hope none of the dwarves die. 

So yeah, that's what has been on my mind. I just pray Peter Jackson gives us a happy ending to the last hobbit movie.

New Shirts And An Awesome Pic By Korin//

Hey everyone! The picture above is me and Korin wearing our new LOTR t-shirts that our parents gave us for Christmas. We were seriously thrilled to get them and I think this is my favorite shirt that I've ever owned. ;) Notice the dwarves behind us from my hobbit movie poster, and then you also may notice I was trying to take the picture by holding the camera out  in front of us. It made the pic a little blurry but still presentable....
 And I also have to share with you a picture that Korin drew for me for Christmas of Strider (Aragorn). She is an amazing artist, and I was so shocked on how amazing and totally awesome it looked....

The movie pic of Strider... 

and Korin's pic....

 Notice that Aragorn is in the Prancing Pony at Bree when the hobbits first meet him in the LOTR movies. Totally one of my favorite parts in the movie, "The Fellowship of The Ring"! Did Korin do an awesome job or what?!

And then just a quick glance at our LOTR extended movie editions, along with "The Unexpected Journey" on the left with our Tolkien Dictionary.

So how was your Christmas?

Merry Christmas!

Have an amazing day!

The Hobbit Store

Has anyone seen the hobbit online store? Guys, if you haven't - go there! I think if anyone asks next year what they could get me for Christmas or my b-day, I'll just hand them the store link. Haha. Here are some of the highlights of the store. 

Alright, I flipped when I saw this! Is this amazing or what?! The ring. The one ring. The ring seen on all the movies!

And then I saw the t-shirts and really flipped.....

 This t-shirt is my fave of all of them. My favorite quote with my favorite dwarves..... this t-shirt is just so awesome!

But then so is this one! ^ And then just because I love drinking coffee.... ☺

So which is your fave? Have you see the online store yet?
Merry early Christmas everyone!

Bilbo and the creepy spiders.... ^

In Christ and from your fellow Tolkien fan,

Sharing My Favorite Scenes - Part 1

So I decided to take a minute to share some of my favorite scenes from the new movie we've all been crazy over these past few weeks - The Desolation Of Smaug....

The Elves saving the dwarves from the spiders...

Tauriel was awesome! She was a warrior elf woman  and I seriously loved her character! This was one of my favorite scenes - her and the other elves fighting off the spiders. For some reason this really stuck out to me. ☺ The spiders were so creepy and this was like the scene where you don't knew whether to breath a sigh of relief or not.

The Barrels 

The barrels! Oh my! I undoubtedly loved this scene! The dwarves poking their heads out and like, "what now?" and then Bilbo trying to figure out how to get down with the rest of them once he get's them into the river - leaving him behind. Also then going down the river was pretty epic too, with all the orcs after them! ☺

Smaug 

 When Bilbo went into the cave and ends up seeing Smaug's eye about to open - the dragon covered in gold with only his eye seen. Then Bilbo stands a little ways away and holds up his hands as if accessing the moment. Then realizing the dragon is a bit bigger then he thought and then he didn't know what to do. I think this part was really hilarious and frightening - Bilbo is just pure awesome! 

So that is just some - I seriously could go on!!! Like there was soooo many scenes I liked! haha. Anyway - what is some of your's? 
I plan on posting some more in the upcoming weeks on my fave scenes, so be on the lookout for them. 
Have a great day!
