I tried to watch The Hobbit trailer on the 'official' site - iTunes/Apple, but it kept giving me page not found. After ten minutes of reloading, I gave up and went to YouTube, voila

Isn't Martin Freeman playing Bilbo? If he could convince me he was Arthur Dent, he can pretty much convince me of anything.

Yes, he is.

Have you had a chance to watch the BBC Sherlock eps? Martin Freeman plays John Watson with a dual air of seriousness and spirit, and that portrayal makes me think he'll do Bilbo justice.

The part of the trailer that got me was the singing. I wasn't sure they could pull that off in the movie without being ridiculous, but what I heard sent shivers down my spine :)

Need to get that book out of storage for the holidays...

It looks like it's going to be all kinds of fun.

I just watched it and for the first time, I think it might be worth seeing.

I know. I know. Peter Jackson did a fabulous job with LotR and he's a genius for his vision, but imo he totally missed the point about the hobbits, so to trust him to do well by The Hobbit? It's a stretch for me.

Adding this one to my see-in-theatre list.
