I find that I’m missing Thorin!! Yes, crazy, I know! If I lived closer to the theater, I would’ve been to see it more than twice!
They started running it just at night here and I would have been quite late getting home. I don’t like driving late at night if I can avoid it. My vision seems to deteriorate. 😦
I was hoping for a third viewing, but it’s gone from the local cinema now after being down to one session late at night. There’s still the possibility of seeing it at a cinema an hour’s drive away, but I find that, as much as I’m missing Thorin too, knowing that the DVD is out in a few weeks’ time, I’m able to wait. Quite happy then to sit at home on my own, watching it on our big screen TV and making as much noise as I like! And to use the remote repeatedly of course! 😉
Yeah, look how long we waited for the film to come out in theatres, doesn’t seem like a long wait for the DVDs. 😀
We’re doing New Zealand at school at present which gave me the excellent opportunity as English teacher of watching the 10 minute televsion special on the making of The Hobbit in class yesterday. Being the exemplary teacher that I am, there was no occasion to melt or swoon, but I will admit to a swelling of the heart and a fierce pride every time Richard and Thorin were on the screen! I have some Tolkien fans in the class already, but I’m certain several Thorin fans were born.
Ah, the pleasures of pedagogy! A friend is using Cbeebies to teach English in Sevilla. We may soon have a generation that speaks English with a Leicester accent.

Thorin Oakenshield is such a wonderful combination of hotness, soulfulness and strength! Whew, he takes my breath away!
Just a little bit (a whole lot of) heart and soul . . . he’s a might force to be reckoned with, that is for SURE.
Maybe you should do a video about Thorin to that song!
That’s a thought. It might have to wait until the DVD comes out so I’d have more screencaps to work with. 😀
Yes! I was going to wait until the Extended Version of TH came out, but I’m realizing I may not be able to wait!
That’s one reason for me, I want to start making my own screencaps and I’ll need the movie to do it.

And I don’t think that’s a bad thing, either! 😉
I know that was a very enjoyable lesson for you to present. 😀
