What an exciting week his has been here on TORn while we celebrate 3 special events as only we can do! First up was the 10th Anniversary celebration of the theatrical release of The Fellowship of the Ring on December 19, 2001. It feels like mere moments ago.

On The Hobbit Movie Discussion Board, DanielLB started the party with a Hobbit Trailer Anticipation Thread. The excitement and scrutiny still rages on as posters finally have an outlet for their pent-up anticipation. There are even some screencap peeps right here and here with still more here by poster Carne. TORn staffers share thoughts with a frame-by-frame analysis via our News From Bree.

The third whammy to hit the Boards was when poster Maut linked us to the release of Peter Jackson’s 5th Production Diary! It’s a treasure trove of sets, locations, and an over-the-shoulder look at how these films have come together. PLUS Frodo (Elijah Wood) takes us on a tour of Hobbiton!
