Fili and Kili, at your service.
Elessar: The intro of the Dwarves something I’m looking forward to seeing on screen. I think we’ll get a picture quickly of their personalities.
Entmaiden: Love Fili and Kili! “At Your Service”
Calisuri: Maegwen should say it first…those are some attractive dwarves!
Garfeimao: Fili and Kili arrive at Bilbo’s door, as seen in this series of pics. I love the slightly perplexed look on Kili’s face, as if to say “wow, Hobbits really are short and very colorful”.
Elessar: The look I would expect Bilbo Baggins to have seeing so many people he doesn’t want to see at his door.
Calisuri: Grumpy host…
Garfeimao: Meanwhile, Fili looks bemused, as if to say “dude” a la Bill and Ted.
“He had hardly turned the knob, before they were all inside, bowing and saying “at your service” one after another…” – The Hobbit
Garfeimao: I can finally make out that Fili’s back sword sheath does only hold one sword, which has had me perplexed, since he’s always shown fighting with two swords. But I believe I’ve solved that riddle. The back scabbard is fairly wide, that was established in one of the Vlogs when Fili was shown running away from the camera. I now believe one sword is sheathed from the top of the scabbard and the other is sheathed from the bottom, and the scabbard hangs at a diagonal, so that he can draw them both at the same time. This should give Fili an uber cool Sword Draw moment a la Legolas with his twin blades. I can also see he’s wearing a brown wool cloak.
Are those dwarves in my parlour
Balin and Dwalin greeting with a head-butt!
Calisuri: Bilbo’s robe is quite modern – I can definitely see myself wearing this on a chilly winter’s evening!
Nori plays with some ready to eat sausages while a frustrated Bilbo and a thoroughly entertained Gandalf look on.
Garfeimao: I really like how Bilbo’s larder is laid out, I wish he’d come to my house and organize my kitchen.
A merry feasting.
Magpie: I suppose this is the larder. I think one of the bottles on the top right says “Nettle Wine”. The cask by the doorway says “Ale”.
Bombur celebrates an egg being caught in his mouth!
“I’m surrounded by dwarves. What are they doing here?”
Garfeimao: I can’t quite put my finger on it, but I really love this particular image. Not sure if it’s when Thorin first meets Bilbo, or if it’s later on in the Party, but Thorin looks so much like he’s glad to meet Bilbo. Can’t wait to put this one in context.
Listen to tales told of great deeds of old.
Magpie: It took me forever to figure out that the thing by Oin’s head was an ear horn. I suppose someone has said this already but I can’t hear anything so there you are. ;-p
