In case you haven’t already done so, here’s a quick reminder that today is the last day to enter TheOneRing.net and New Zealand Post’s “The Hobbit – An Unexpected Journey” Contest.
We asked fans to make box art for the forthcoming Blu-ray (and DVD) release and you responded! We received hand-drawn entries, lots that used featured go-to images of characters and scenes from the film and a few that did things a bit differently. Thanks to all of those who took the time and effort to participate. One entry even requires 3D glasses to see properly. Some entries came in for the extended edition cover as well.
While the official art is obviously solid and professional, we believe a lot of these submitted covers can go toe-to-toe with the official art work. Maybe Warner Bros. should turn these things over to fans and let the people decide the cover they are willing to pay money for! (At least one staffer was really hoping for the lenticular images viewed last year at Comic-Con.) Thanks to everybody who entered. If you click on any of the images below in a completely random display, you can see a larger version. We did reduce the published size to make them mostly uniform. The winner, selected by TORn staff (most of them haven’t seen all these either) will receive a TORn t-shirt package. The decision of the judges is final. Enjoy!
