Man, watching Sherlock, I was just thinking how that guy deserves a major movie part, needless to say I'm psyched. He is, by far, my favourite character in "The Office" as well. | ||

It must have taken forever to craft those with such detail. Watching production videos really makes we want to work in the film industry... especially watching the behind the scenes of lord of the rings, it just looks really awesome to be involved in something like that. | ||

They are filming it in 3d at 48fps so it should look incredible. Most movies are converted to 3d in postproduction, (This will be film in 3d to start)so this should look great. | ||

Beren and Luthien would definately be awesome, and Hurin too, but what about Turin Turambar? On topic: ohgodicantwait. I have already acquired a sleeping bag so that I can camp infront of the movie theater for a couple of days to ensure tickets. (yesyes, internet has been invented, I don't care. It is all a part of the experience. ) | ||

I read the article and I still don't understand; why would filming a movie at 48fps instead of 24fps make a movie look bad? The best I could find were a bunch of critics complaining that it's "like looking at real life on a movie screen and not in a good way", which isn't exactly helpful. Furthermore, he/they was complaining that "the contrast ratio isn't there yet — everything looked either too bright or black", when the visual effects weren’t done and the lighting wasn’t finalized. Just seems like firelighting to me. Get a good news story and more publicity due to the DRAMA headlines produced, such as: First Reactions to 'The Hobbit' Are ... Not Good? WTF?! | ||

Obviously this will be impossible to do in 3D as things will be at the incorrect depth, instantly breaking that illusion. | ||

How did they use this technique for example when Gandalf and hobbit were both sitting on the horse? CGI? Kid actor? | ||

Dwarf standin for the hobbit unless the faces of both were shown. They did use CGI in many scenes though. It wasn't virtually all done using clever techniques. But they did that whenever possible. Just like almost all the castles and cities are physical scale models rather than CGI. | ||

I completely agree with the slapstick Gimley and superman Legolas part. I'm hoping that they make a more mature movie, expecting that the fans of the LOTR-movies have grown up. | ||
