  • Listen To The Hobbit Soundtrack In Its Entirety

    Middle-Earth Music For Your Ear Holes.

    December 14th is quickly approaching which will see the release of Peter Jackson’s return to Middle-Earth in The Hobbit. Now you can listen to the entire soundtrack thanks to Rolling Stone.

    The soundtrack is composed by Howard Shore who did the music for Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings Trilogy as well. I have been listening to it all morning and have had a smile on my face the whole time. It is good to hear the music and remember back to how wonderful the LOTR trilogy was and it has me even more ready for The Hobbit.

    The Hobbit opens on December 14th and the soundtrack will release on December 21st.

  • The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey’s Runtime Is…..Short

    In an interview with Empire Magazine, director Peter Jackson has said that the first film in The Hobbit trilogy will be the shortest of all of the Tolkien films so far.

    “It’s looking like it’s going to be about ten minutes shorter than Fellowship. So it’s going to be officially our shortest Middle-earth yet. I mean, Fellowship was just under three hours and this is about 2 hours 40 minutes at the moment.”

    This really shouldn’t surprise anyone with The Hobbit being split into three films that the runtimes would be shortened a bit. But with the length of movies these days 2:40 is about the norm. The Avengers ran 2:20 and The Dark Knight Rises was 2:45.

    The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey releases on December 14th.
