Holy Fucking Giant Dildo of Fucking Doom, that sneak peek !
I'm buzzing right now, it's fucking amazing. (And eyeing that flask of Label 5 amorously) I just saw with my mother the Sneak Peek at The Hobbit : The Desolation of Smaug. And boy, that was good, very good.
And I NEED TO SHARE MY EXCITEMENT.
First and foremost, as I said on FB, this wasn't a straight 'Here you go, there's your exclusive footage. Have fun !' The event was advertised as a live event with Peter Jackson primarily. My mother was a bit disappointed that we didn't more actual film footage but personally I'm content with what I saw. Sure more would have been great but honestly, at this stage of the post-prod/shooting, I'm not surprised they don't have a lot of film footage that ready. I'm more frustrated at the idea of having to wait until Summer to see a trailer.
I CANT WAIT THAT LONG GDI.
So, the live event was presented by Peter Jackson and Jed Brophy aka Nori, which was a nice touch. Had a bit of making of the beginning, and they pretended to show us what Smaugh would look like. As if they would show the finished product that early :P
Then the first bit of footage we had was a scene with the Dwarves, Bilbo and surprisingly Bard. It's a scene after they escaped from Thranduil's lair. Apparently they reached Laketown in a boat. I don't mind if that means more character development for Bard and the dwarves.
After that, there were a lot of BHS footage, and that was the best part of the event (that and certain guests :D).

FUCK RADAGAST FOR BEING SUCH A POTHEAD ALL THE TIMES. I SWEAR SARUMAN WAS RIGHT ABOUT HIM.
And if that wasn't enough, apart from regular people asking questions, they had guest actors either saying a message or asking questions. And that was awesome as well.
We got Luke Evans, Stephen Fry and Lee Pace sending short (well, not that short for Fry) message to the fans. I didn't expect Lee Pace since he was thirty seconds in the first but we still got him <3
Orlando Bloom, Billy Boyd and Dominic Monaghan asked questions as the old guard from LotR <3
Evangeline Lilly asked a question as well.
Aaaaaaaand Stephen Colbert had his question too XD About the differences between different 'races' of elves. Geek <3 I wonder if his cameo is in the second movie <3
And that was more or less all. I don't remember everything because I was so fucking hyper during the whole thing. My mother was sideeyeing the fuck out of me. And I don't blame her XD
TOTALLY WORTH PRE-ORDERING THE BLU-RAY.
I know I sound completely unhinged but that's probably true ;)
On a totally unrelated note : So, a couple of weeks ago I started watching Supernatural. I had stopped around the beginning of season 4, so I started up again where I had left off. And then enters Crowley. Fucking Crowley. I was looking forward to this character because a demon named Crowley, that was awfully familiar. (Good Omens has a demon named Crowley.) And the character didn't disappoint at all. I'm pretty much the character in SPN is an hommage to the character in Good Omens because there is way too many similarities to be a coincidence. (But enough differences not to be plagiarism) In my headcanon, he is the same character :D I'd love for the character in the show to make a reference to the book, like the Bentley or the sunglasses. His pet hellhound could be considered one, I think. So of course I swooned because evil character with snark, suit, accent, innuendos and class ? Totes my type. Also more than probably gay. I mean, it's not spelled out but he flirts with every male he encounters, and as far as I am in S7, not with the ladies. Also had absolutely no problem kissing guys. (I'm shipping with Bobby because srsly HE WANTS TO. Also with Castiel. And can I weep over how stupid it was that he never met Balthazar ? Because seriously those two guys would have been like peas in a pod together.) So I was already into Crowley (in every sense of the word) when stubble!Crowley appeared in S07E01 I was 'Heeeeello there !' because Crowley was looking good. And then there was S07E08, and the scruff, the beard, and I was even more of a goner than I already was. Seriously, I'd think this was a post Hobbit!Dwarves thing because as much as I like clean shaven!Crowley and stubble!Crowley, Beard!Crowley is blowing them out of the water. Damn. He looks so fucking good. Guh.
