It broke my heart to hear Peter talking about how he knew people didn’t like these movies and how he considered it a personal failure if people saw a movie they didn’t enjoy...I absolutely loved the hobbit trilogy and still will. I just wanna give him a hug
I just now finished all three a few moments ago for only the 9,000th time ever. People who don't like the movies I'd encourage them to go watch something else. I love everything in these movies.
I really love the Hobbit, these movie that I actually watch first and know first than lotr (I'm 20 y.o) it's awesome movies, the story, scenery, character, actor These trilogy makes me more interested with jrr Tolkien novel/books
ahaha ON WITH THE "ARMITAGE ARMY" and anyway.. what was that lady elf always looking at Rich for, ehehhh??????? =___= great cast...!! great films, great director and last but not least GREAT BOOKS
Hey it's 2021! I was 2 years old when the Lord of the rings released and I'm 13 years old when The Hobbit was filmed and I'm 23 years old now. Peter and Ian was right. We watched this movies in a new experience. I really loved it. I cried when I finished all the six movies. It's feels like I'm part of the movie.
Thank you Peter Jackson and all the actors, and the crews, for creating the Hobbit movie and Lotr movie. I know there are haters out there who are disappointed with the hobbit, I still consider it a good movie along with Lotr.
Coming back to watch this interview again after so long was a joy. Sir Ian McKellen especially never failed to put a smile on my face with his words being as iconic as Gandalf's themselves. It was a privilege to be able to experience the classic world of Tolkien and Middle Earth visibly, and Peter Jackson, as well as everyone involved both on and off camera, have never failed to do the books justice, no matter what some people say about the Hobbit trilogy. This journey has been as eventful as the Quests themselves, and it will never truly be at an end. Hopefully one day we will be able to see the extensive tales such as the Silmarillion performed to an equally effective extent, but for now at least I feel I can be content with the amount of love and dedication put into both the writing of the books and the creative, difficult adaptation of them.
Thanks for putting this up, I adore lee pace, he's one of my favs since ever i started watching The hobbit, I always had that more attention side to him. His character as "King Thranduil" Is The Top of them all. If i ever Had the chance to meet Lee pace, It would Make my life Better. I literally meant it.
Hi chain sou, so glad you enjoyed the video and hope you get a chance to meet Lee Pace one day! :) In the meantime you can see our short interview with him at the premiere th-cam.com/video/-zDEwLkRcu8/w-d-xo.html
Peter, we want to see those deleted scenes, unused for the Extended edition of the Lord of the Rings : - Fellowship of the Ring : additional footage from the Battle of the Last Alliance (and maybe add Lee Pace’s Thranduil into it), an extended Council of Elrond (dialogue from the Council of Elrond, such as Gandalf explaining how Sauron forged the One Ring) - The Two Towers : Arwen and Elrond visiting Galadriel at Lothlórien, Conversation between Elrond and Arwen in a library in Rivendell, after Arwen decides to wait for Aragorn. Elrond leaves saying “You gave away your life’s grace. I cannot protect you anymore” - Return of the King : further epilogue footage, with endings for Legolas and Gimli, Éowyn and Faramir's wedding and Aragorn's death and funeral. Also, to give context for Wormtongue killing Saruman, and Legolas in turn killing Wormtongue, it was to be revealed Wormtongue poisoned Théodred. The final scene cut was Aragorn having his armour fitted for the Battle of the Black Gate by the trilogy's armourers, which was the final scene filmed during principal photography, and others. We know you stated that you would like to include some of these unused scenes in a future "Ultimate Edition" home video release, also including out-takes. It would be great if you would be able to revisit the cut of all 6 movies in the near future, do an "ultimate cut" of the 6 movies and integrate those scenes I mentioned back in the movies (instead of deleted scenes). You would also be able to reshoot the "Bilbo finding the Ring" scene from Fellowship of the ring, replace gollum from the shadowy scene in the Mines of Moria (from Fellowship), add more Balrog vs Gandalf fight (as you wished in the first place when you thought about the sequence but you didn't have the means and budget for it at the time), integrate Thranduil in the Battle of the Last Alliance, etc. (as did George Lucas with Star Wars afterwards). Cheers! :D
32:35 i’m going into movies and production design because of the effect that these particular trilogies had on me growing up and still have to this day. i’m going to school for it and work in whatever i can wherever i can. i found my passion through these. peter is doing it right.
Nobody could have played Bilbo Baggins but Martin Freeman- his expressions, just everything about him so relatable, funny, cute, honorable and a Barrel-rider. Love him & that character he created.
Martin Freeman and Billy Bloyd are very similar in terms of looks and their characters also have a bit of similarity. Hobbit and Lord of the Rings are such a amazing films and they won't be forgotten. This cast is amazing. Yes Bilbo got happy ending despite the fact that he needed his belongings back but his quest didn't claim life from him like Frodo did. Bilbo was able to settle back into his old life but Frodo couldn't, He went through too much torment and suffering. Ring claimed a lot of things from. From Hobbit I guess that my favourite is the Battle of Five Armies and from Lord of the Rings it's Two Towers however it's hard to pick 1 from both Hobbit and Lord of the Rings because all films were amazing. Wonderful music and all of these beautiful locations. I don't know but this beautiful story and I love how it been made. I don't care which character was in book or not.
AS part of the laketown clan me my hubby and 4 children on set at laketown what a privilege it twas to be immersed with these incredible actors artist s and filmies right here in middle earth we were all so lucky to be a part of a forever adventure woven especially our childrens lives ....what a buzz looking so forward to seeing the extended version and our bullocks were beorns bullocks so seeing them everyday reminds me of his rare breed nature ....that was a fantastic interview such down to earth ,,middle earthers cast and crew
To all Lord of the Rings fans! Do we want this movie back in the theaters again? Do we want to feel they joy that we had back then? Do we want the nostalgia back in our souls? Do we want to make more people happy for what we have had back then? If The Titanic will reappear in 3D why not as well The Lord of the Rings? If you love this amazing movie, post it on every LOTR video to announce that this saga is NOT DEAD. IT SHALL NOT KNOW THIS TERM! Who is with me?COME, ON! LETS GET THIS THING ROLLING RIGHT NOW! SPREAD THE WORD! POST THIS EVERYWHERE SO EVERY TOLKIENITE MAY SEE IT! MIDDLE EARTH WILL SEE THEATERS AGAIN, ONE LAST TIME!!
The movie is so awesome that I watched twice! (And still not enough) haha. I grew up with Lotr and have the whole set of DVDs at home. I seriously love all the casts and so glad that some of them are able to continue their roles in The Hobbit. I definitely love Thranduil in this movie. Lee Pace is perfect for that role like really. Legolas is as cool and beautiful like 11yrs ago as elf. I love everything about these trilogies. Thanks Peter Jackson, the crews and casts for everything ;)
The tolkien estate must allow another movie one of these days, for the sake of all their fans =) Please Sir Peter J. make the Silmarillion or other Middle earth movie(s) =) and thank you for everything so far ! I'm looking forward for the the hobbit 3, seems completely mindblowing with all the battles :D Will the battle be comparable to the battle of the return of the king ? its a difficult task but maybe it will :P
Joao Diogo The movie was captured in 48 FPS (you should be able to find screenings in both that or 24 FPS), but not in IMAX, as far as I'm aware. IMAX cinemas are screening the film though. Hope that helps! :-)
EDIT:EDIT: Watched it again in January 2nd ! =D Dunno why but I liked even more to watch it for the second time :P! Maybe because I could focus in some details and reasons for some events that I wasn't able to notice/understand when I saw it for the first time. A really awesome film. In my opinion this was the best of the three, even though all the movies of the trilogy are formidable! :D
Peter when I was in college in 1966 through 68 the Lord of the Rings came out and I devoured it and then the Hobbit came out after that. It’s so funny how the books and now your movies were reversed but somehow ironic I remember, enjoying the Lord of the Rings more than the Hobbit and glad that they came out first as I might not have been so anxious to read the LOTR afterwards. Then I read the whole series every 10 years or so. I’ve got to say you really nailed it. My imagination was never betrayed as I watched your movies and your actors and actresses were so spot on. I just adore them all especially Bilbo, Frodo and Gandalf. Thank you so much for making the films and don’t you ever for a moment feel anything but pride at what you have done. These movies will live on as long as there is a way to show them. You are just so adorable. I must say it was great to see you work yourself into the movies ala Alfred Hitchcock. I hope you have a wonderful rest of your life. You definitely deserve it.😘
It honestly could just be me, but P. Jackson seems SO over all the attention, the "thank-you"s, the praise, and most of these questions. He seems to be exuding exhaustion, impatience, and boredom more than anything else. I don't want to sound accusatory; the whole thing must get redundant after ~15 years. It's just unfortunate that he can't seem to enjoy it all more at this point. Great interview, regardless! Awesome line-up of people!
He just finished three movies that were filmed in a row + getting ready for the premiere of the last one. That means that he barely had any sleep throughout this whole time. You would seem annoyed and ,,over it" too in his place :)
Am I the one who thinks the lady directing the questions is a bit pushy and trying to rush through some of the questions. I got that feel after one person asked a question that was for the whole cast but she said "please pick one person we don't have time and have a lot of questions to get through" or at least something along those lines. It seemed a little rude.
Sadly she did what she had to do...keep things moving. This way you can get through as many questions as possible for the fans sake, otherwise things could drag on. With CC or any of these types of question/answer panels, you have to have someone who can take control or you'd have one hot mess. I think she handled it brilliantly...and I'm sure the cast thought so too. It's nice to get as many questions in as possible and have as many on the panel answer as well.
I thought so. She was doing what she had to do,of course. But she was acting hard. For example she said " Martin,have you finished ?" and her behaviors towards the journalists or whatever.. anyway she was being rude
I would love to see Peter direct "the hunt for Gollum" and " Born of Hope" there are allot of stories that could be told without ever going into the copyrighted area that the Tolkien family are with holding from the film industry. Just stories based within the Hobbit and Lord of the rings time frames.
9:16 and they did a wonderful job at that. I was 10 when the battle of five armies came out but I’m just watching the movies now and I’m watching the hobbit movies before the lord of the rings, and the lord of the rings feels like a sequel to the hobbit rather that the hobbit being the prequel in all the best ways. (I would go into further detail but I don’t like typing)
Well, here it is July 26 2021. This is old news but new news to me. I have watched all 6 movies in order several times, and I am so grateful for these movies and stories. It would be so wonderful if Middle Earth really existed. I would move there immediately.
Well we have seen The Lord of the Rings triology, and the Hobbit as well, i would like to see they make at least one more triology but like more about the dwarfes and elves and their rival, and all happening in the same timeline as the lord of the rings, there are so small info of dwarfes even lesser the elves, it would be so amazing and the top peak of Tolkiens journey to see that kind of triology...
I love that word ... "anthropomorphize". Trust Andy Serkis to utilize it within his vocabulary. 😂 Seriously though, the guy is one of Hollywood's greats.
Did I sense a slight bitterness when Peter Jackson talked about the fact that there can't be any new movies without cooperation of the Tolkien estate? Has there been some conflicts or bad blood between the Tolkien estate and Peter Jackson?
Tokien's son pretty much said that Jackson is money hungry and doesn't care about Middle Earth. He hated LOTR and Hobbit movies and publicly bashed them. You could say that they're not very friendly with each other.
Emmay864 Which is kind of ironic since I'm sure the Tolkien estate did not hesitate to print new extended editions of Tolkien's books to meet the enormous demand that the movies generated. Many of these editions even used art from the movies on their cover. Regardless of whether Christopher Tolkien actually like these movies or not he should embrace them since they are solely responsible for new generations finding Tolkien's work again. I'm so fed up with Christopher Tolkien. He's a spoiled little brat who's only relevant due to his father's work. Desperately trying to stay relevant by being an annoying little prick.
Probus Excogitatoris I'm not sure if you can call him little, he's 90 years old :D But I completely agree with everything else you said. He often acts like he wrote those books. It was his father who had all those brilliant images and stories in his head and even though he grew up listening to them, he's still not his father. Plus, most of the fans who loved the movies also grew up with these stories, so it's incredibly egoistic of him to not allow more movies to be made. As I mentioned before, he's 90, so there's not much left to him. Maybe after he passes away the rest of the family will have a different opinion.
It broke my heart to hear Peter talking about how he knew people didn’t like these movies and how he considered it a personal failure if people saw a movie they didn’t enjoy...I absolutely loved the hobbit trilogy and still will. I just wanna give him a hug
I ADORE THE HOBBIT MOVIES AND THINK THEYRE PERFECT
I totally love the hobbit movies even more than LotR. So well done ❤️
I just now finished all three a few moments ago for only the 9,000th time ever. People who don't like the movies I'd encourage them to go watch something else. I love everything in these movies.
I really love the Hobbit, these movie that I actually watch first and know first than lotr (I'm 20 y.o) it's awesome movies, the story, scenery, character, actor
These trilogy makes me more interested with jrr Tolkien novel/books
*LOVED IT* as well.
I am a chronic watcher of these 6 movies. I have never been bored. Every scene is exciting.
Same .
I really hoped the one word that sums up the experience for Andy Serkis would be 'precious'.
selin t haha, yes, that would have even more brilliant! :-)
I love Martin's aggressiveness lol
😂
Lee Pace is adorable!
DAMN!!!! pace. armitage and evans are all incredibly good-looking men on this dais.
ahaha ON WITH THE "ARMITAGE ARMY" and anyway.. what was that lady elf always looking at Rich for, ehehhh??????? =___= great cast...!! great films, great director and last but not least GREAT BOOKS
Emma Woodhouse I will rip her eyes out. 😀
I love Martin Freeman ,he has got such a funny dark humour
The only good part about Hobbit
Hey it's 2021! I was 2 years old when the Lord of the rings released and I'm 13 years old when The Hobbit was filmed and I'm 23 years old now. Peter and Ian was right. We watched this movies in a new experience. I really loved it. I cried when I finished all the six movies. It's feels like I'm part of the movie.
True, it really has been a part of our whole lives right? :)
Thank you Peter Jackson and all the actors, and the crews, for creating the Hobbit movie and Lotr movie. I know there are haters out there who are disappointed with the hobbit, I still consider it a good movie along with Lotr.
I came here for Lee Pace

Ohh he’s gay sadly 🤷🏼♀️
Coming back to watch this interview again after so long was a joy. Sir Ian McKellen especially never failed to put a smile on my face with his words being as iconic as Gandalf's themselves.

1:58 Lee Pace pure soul "swing my sword around and" (and we can here Evangeline going "hehehe!!!") my God she has a naughty mind 😊
'Peter and Ian and anyone else that has children'
Ian looks confused and Martin suppresses a laugh, awkward moment haha
Martin with two kids and Ian with none:
Thanks for putting this up, I adore lee pace, he's one of my favs since ever i started watching The hobbit, I always had that more attention side to him.

Sir Ian McKellen, one word....AMAZING!
I came here for Richard Armitage💞💪😍👏👏👏
"24 hours of joy" has never been a bigger lie when you know you will cry over these movies lol
but that's what makes them so good
Jesus
Martin is amazing
He really is!! :-)
Peter, we want to see those deleted scenes, unused for the Extended edition of the Lord of the Rings :
- Fellowship of the Ring : additional footage from the Battle of the Last Alliance (and maybe add Lee Pace’s Thranduil into it), an extended Council of Elrond (dialogue from the Council of Elrond, such as Gandalf explaining how Sauron forged the One Ring)
- The Two Towers : Arwen and Elrond visiting Galadriel at Lothlórien, Conversation between Elrond and Arwen in a library in Rivendell, after Arwen decides to wait for Aragorn. Elrond leaves saying “You gave away your life’s grace. I cannot protect you anymore”
- Return of the King : further epilogue footage, with endings for Legolas and Gimli, Éowyn and Faramir's wedding and Aragorn's death and funeral. Also, to give context for Wormtongue killing Saruman, and Legolas in turn killing Wormtongue, it was to be revealed Wormtongue poisoned Théodred. The final scene cut was Aragorn having his armour fitted for the Battle of the Black Gate by the trilogy's armourers, which was the final scene filmed during principal photography, and others.
We know you stated that you would like to include some of these unused scenes in a future "Ultimate Edition" home video release, also including out-takes.
It would be great if you would be able to revisit the cut of all 6 movies in the near future, do an "ultimate cut" of the 6 movies and integrate those scenes I mentioned back in the movies (instead of deleted scenes). You would also be able to reshoot the "Bilbo finding the Ring" scene from Fellowship of the ring, replace gollum from the shadowy scene in the Mines of Moria (from Fellowship), add more Balrog vs Gandalf fight (as you wished in the first place when you thought about the sequence but you didn't have the means and budget for it at the time), integrate Thranduil in the Battle of the Last Alliance, etc. (as did George Lucas with Star Wars afterwards).
Cheers! :D
Love all 6 movies and the idea that it's worth fighting for the light at the end of the tunnel.
Omg Martin! I love this man so much, his sense of humour is exquisite. :)
32:35 i’m going into movies and production design because of the effect that these particular trilogies had on me growing up and still have to this day. i’m going to school for it and work in whatever i can wherever i can. i found my passion through these. peter is doing it right.
I'm not the only one crying, I'm not the only one crying!
We need more The Hobbit movies WITH THIS CAST!!!!😭
The Hobbit wouldn't be the same for me if the Tauriel character wasn't created, Evangeline Lilly you're the best!
richard armitage is a giant in real life...
Expand inside bilbo. OMG MARTIN.
+Michiko Yeung I think at the end when he covered his face he just realised EXACTLY what he said and what it meant. His reaction was very funny.
05:20
Great filmed not shaky ^^
Thanks, Nathie! :-)
Better than these usually are.
Gasparagus Productions Thanks!
29:28 I love watch richard drinking, and lily is always smiling
Peter Jackson!!! You have certainly inspired me want to become a filmmaker. Thanks for giving us all the films you have made !!!
Peter's reaction when Richard says Pinot Noir. Well Richard is known for his liking of wine.
Orlando looks soo much better with those long blonde hair!😍
Hannah Be ikr XD
Hannah he still hot as fuck
4:51 I replayed that. 10,000 times
Want. To. See. More. Middle. Earth. “The Tale of Beren and Lúthien” “Unfinished Tale” AND “The Silmarillion”
And children of hurin
Nobody could have played Bilbo Baggins but Martin Freeman- his expressions, just everything about him so relatable, funny, cute, honorable and a Barrel-rider. Love him & that character he created.
WHY CANT THEY JUST STAY AS THEIR CHARACTERS FOREVERRRRR.I love them both ways just makes me sad
These movies were wonderful! So much talent and incredible action scenes.
Hated to see them end and to hell with haters!❤
Martin Freeman and Billy Bloyd are very similar in terms of looks and their characters also have a bit of similarity. Hobbit and Lord of the Rings are such a amazing films and they won't be forgotten. This cast is amazing. Yes Bilbo got happy ending despite the fact that he needed his belongings back but his quest didn't claim life from him like Frodo did.

How very cool!! Thanks for sharing your experience with us! :-)
To all Lord of the Rings fans! Do we want this movie back in the theaters again? Do we want to feel they joy that we had back then? Do we want the nostalgia back in our souls? Do we want to make more people happy for what we have had back then? If The Titanic will reappear in 3D why not as well The Lord of the Rings?

I love Lee
Martin! "What? Christ!!" LOL, so him!!
LEE PACE.
As soon as I get the extended Battle of five armies DVD, I'm watching all of them
The movie is so awesome that I watched twice! (And still not enough) haha. I grew up with Lotr and have the whole set of DVDs at home. I seriously love all the casts and so glad that some of them are able to continue their roles in The Hobbit. I definitely love Thranduil in this movie. Lee Pace is perfect for that role like really. Legolas is as cool and beautiful like 11yrs ago as elf. I love everything about these trilogies. Thanks Peter Jackson, the crews and casts for everything ;)
Lol Orlando Bloom really is an Elf, he doesn't look like he's aged at all. Which can be good, especially in acting.
can't wait to see the film! I'll miss this so much! :(
MARTIIIIIIIIIIN!
I'm sure you'll enjoy it - we did! :-) Btw, in case you're interested, here's our non-spoiler review: th-cam.com/video/QdhNHIiyssk/w-d-xo.html
Oh my god Martin.
The tolkien estate must allow another movie one of these days, for the sake of all their fans =)
Please Sir Peter J. make the Silmarillion or other Middle earth movie(s) =) and thank you for everything so far !
I'm looking forward for the the hobbit 3, seems completely mindblowing with all the battles :D
Will the battle be comparable to the battle of the return of the king ? its a difficult task but maybe it will :P
Joao Diogo I don't think you'll be disappointed!! :-)
***** yeah, I bet I won't :p, btw, do you know if the movie was shot in IMAX ? or in IMAX 3D ? and HFR ? =) tyvm in advance
Joao Diogo The movie was captured in 48 FPS (you should be able to find screenings in both that or 24 FPS), but not in IMAX, as far as I'm aware. IMAX cinemas are screening the film though. Hope that helps! :-)
EDIT: The movie IS, indeed, mindblowingly awesome :D (watched it on the 16th December =p)
EDIT:EDIT: Watched it again in January 2nd ! =D
Dunno why but I liked even more to watch it for the second time :P!
Maybe because I could focus in some details and reasons for some events that I wasn't able to notice/understand when I saw it for the first time.
A really awesome film. In my opinion this was the best of the three, even though all the movies of the trilogy are formidable! :D
I was waiting for Andy to burst out at the end, in his golem voice saying, "PRECIOUSSSS"
such a wasted opportunity :P
NOW... MAKE AN ELF TRILOGY YAY!
Lee pace😍

I'm not late, i just want to say Martin is fu..ing amazing !!!
Thorin my handsome King you are the most handsome man ever♥️ and your voice is dark chocolate...sexiest voice ever😉♥️♥️♥️♥️
Haha I got the trailer for The Five Armies as an ad for this video. I love it :D
haha, perfect! :D
Same!
It honestly could just be me, but P. Jackson seems SO over all the attention, the "thank-you"s, the praise, and most of these questions. He seems to be exuding exhaustion, impatience, and boredom more than anything else. I don't want to sound accusatory; the whole thing must get redundant after ~15 years.

Great interview, regardless! Awesome line-up of people!
He just finished three movies that were filmed in a row + getting ready for the premiere of the last one. That means that he barely had any sleep throughout this whole time. You would seem annoyed and ,,over it" too in his place :)
Emmay864 I agree.. cut Peter a break. He's more tired and exhausted than you can imagine and he's still there answering random questions.
Am I the one who thinks the lady directing the questions is a bit pushy and trying to rush through some of the questions. I got that feel after one person asked a question that was for the whole cast but she said "please pick one person we don't have time and have a lot of questions to get through" or at least something along those lines.

Yeah, seems a bit rude.
anyone else notice martin sort of smile at 22:25 when the man said "I've got a question from my 10 year old son, Hag" ?? xD
"Uhm Orlando"
Orlando : "hello love how's it going"
* *no answer* *
Once a Smeagol, always a Smeagol, Andrew Serkis!
I'm biggest fan off the Hobbit and I'm 27 year old my mum son I can Hobbit film I learned to read Hobbit book in my daily age
I would love to see Peter direct "the hunt for Gollum" and " Born of Hope" there are allot of stories that could be told without ever going into the copyrighted area that the Tolkien family are with holding from the film industry. Just stories based within the Hobbit and Lord of the rings time frames.
25:00 Really love his answer here, he put that into words really well
Why no one said that Richard look just like Hugh Jackman. And I know what ? He really do!
haha I loove martin freeman. :) oh good lord, I still have a hangover. I wana come back to middle earth,
thank you Petes and the rest of the Crew for creating wonderful reasons for me to carry on LIVING.
Thank you Peter for directing the Hobbit you did a great job
Good seeing that Ian McKellen was able to be there.

I loved this movie ( The hobbit) alooooot every time i watch it i see something special in it and enjoy watching it love you alllllll 🌻🌻
Peter and his tea... xD
I Love Orlando Bloom!!!
9:16 and they did a wonderful job at that. I was 10 when the battle of five armies came out but I’m just watching the movies now and I’m watching the hobbit movies before the lord of the rings, and the lord of the rings feels like a sequel to the hobbit rather that the hobbit being the prequel in all the best ways. (I would go into further detail but I don’t like typing)
one of my favorite movies, great story!!!!!
Thank God! Peter Jackson came back and finish up the story
Missed opportunity for Lee to say Precious at the end
He did his Star Wars voice at the end :)
yay!!!

best movies ever made by far I bought the trilogy about 6 months ago I watch these movies every weekend
Loved listening to all their thoughts and I wish they had been so rushed!
what about second breakfast?
Funny how no one was interested in Orlando Bloom. He had to make up his own question to answer...
the hobbit movies are my favourite
leave it to Andy to mention Benedict... :)
Well, here it is July 26 2021. This is old news but new news to me. I have watched
all 6 movies in order several times, and I am so grateful for these movies and stories.
It would be so wonderful if Middle Earth really existed. I would move there immediately.
Richard ❤
Well we have seen The Lord of the Rings triology, and the Hobbit as well, i would like to see they make at least one more triology but like more about the dwarfes and elves and their rival, and all happening in the same timeline as the lord of the rings, there are so small info of dwarfes even lesser the elves, it would be so amazing and the top peak of Tolkiens journey to see that kind of triology...
The cast is just rock solid.
Omg! Peter is soo sweeeat! His reaction when he was called byname like hmmm🤣
Similarion should be a movie eh?
I really hope they can make more middle earth movies! I want to be apart of it but me being born in 2000 is probably to young.

Why does Peter Jackson's hair always looks like he just got out of bed?🤔
Sky Andropoulos 😂😂😂
We don’t have combs in NZ
I love that word ... "anthropomorphize". Trust Andy Serkis to utilize it within his vocabulary. 😂 Seriously though, the guy is one of Hollywood's greats.
I love Martin infinity 😂😂😂😂
I came here for Orlando
Did I sense a slight bitterness when Peter Jackson talked about the fact that there can't be any new movies without cooperation of the Tolkien estate? Has there been some conflicts or bad blood between the Tolkien estate and Peter Jackson?
Tokien's son pretty much said that Jackson is money hungry and doesn't care about Middle Earth. He hated LOTR and Hobbit movies and publicly bashed them. You could say that they're not very friendly with each other.
Emmay864 Which is kind of ironic since I'm sure the Tolkien estate did not hesitate to print new extended editions of Tolkien's books to meet the enormous demand that the movies generated. Many of these editions even used art from the movies on their cover. Regardless of whether Christopher Tolkien actually like these movies or not he should embrace them since they are solely responsible for new generations finding Tolkien's work again. I'm so fed up with Christopher Tolkien. He's a spoiled little brat who's only relevant due to his father's work. Desperately trying to stay relevant by being an annoying little prick.
Probus Excogitatoris I'm not sure if you can call him little, he's 90 years old :D But I completely agree with everything else you said. He often acts like he wrote those books. It was his father who had all those brilliant images and stories in his head and even though he grew up listening to them, he's still not his father. Plus, most of the fans who loved the movies also grew up with these stories, so it's incredibly egoistic of him to not allow more movies to be made. As I mentioned before, he's 90, so there's not much left to him. Maybe after he passes away the rest of the family will have a different opinion.
Emmay864 From what I heard, the rest of the Tolkien family likes Jackson and his films.
+Probus Excogitatoris Yes, the Torkien family hates the movies.
