Ringer Thorin tells us that in Italy a retailer accidentally released the first artbook for “The Battle of the Five Armies” around a month before the official release date.
It’s been taken off the shelves now, but in the meantime a few keen ringers were able to get their hands on copies — and it is chock-full of big spoilers.
We’re not kidding: If you’d rather not know in advance some of the big things that are going to occur, you won’t want to read below! Continue reading “Big Hobbit movie spoilers from the Five Armies Chronicles art and design book!”

Nerd HQ hosted a Q&A with Evangeline Lilly, where she talks about Lost, her new book – The Squickerwonkers, what’s on her bucket list, her humanitarian work and of course her character, Tauriel from The Hobbit.
You might want to fast forward to the 2:43 minute point when the Q&A actually begins.
Evangeline also talks about the new interactive version of Squickerwonkers that’s coming out, and about working with a Kiwi composer on it and having Sylvester McCoy narrate the story. “It contains animated elements, little easter eggs and things kids can touch and they come to life.”
She discusses her approach to Tauriel saying that she was super proud that she wasn’t just there as a kick-ass woman who can slay and kill. “Look what I can do is, I can protect, I can have compassion and I can care and be gentle and not be like “Urgh!”, but be feminine and graceful while slaughtering orcs.”
These latest three stills from The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies feature Bard, Tauriel and Thranduil. Apparently, the stills come from Entertainment Weekly Comic-Con special issue. Continue reading “Three new stills from The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies”
