Advent Calendar 2011: Day Twenty-One

Wow, are there really only four days until Christmas? Apparently so...in the spirit of goodwill, I thought I'd post the excellent trailer for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. The upcoming film is a prequel to the Lord of the Rings trilogy, chronicling Bilbo Baggins' quest to reclaim the stolen treasure of the Dwarves from the evil dragon Smaug, and his first meeting with the creature Gollum that brings him into possession of a single golden ring that will determine the fate of Middle Earth in years to come. I won't say anymore, other than that you can expect looks at the songs of the Dwarves, Gandalf's role to play in the film, and a cameo from the ring and Gollum himself, amongst many other intriguing moments! The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey hits cinemas on December 14th, 2012.
