I have a theory that Bard was Tolkien's prototype for Aragorn. A badass bowman who's destined to become king. Applies to them both pretty well, doesn't it?
Orson Bean's voice as Bilbo Baggins, absolutely EPIC. I really do respect the acting job that Martin Freeman did playing Bilbo in the P.J. movies, but for me Orson Bean will always be the voice of Bilbo Baggins. Same goes for John Huston's voice as Gandalf. Those voices were born to play Tolkien characters.
I love the depiction of the elves here. Don’t get me wrong, they’re completely different from how they were envisioned in Tolkien’s Middle Earth, but "the Hobbit" was born as children’s story based more on traditional folktales than grand ancient epics (though there was a lot of that influence too) and this movie captures this dimension of the story in my opinion.

And me. This was my first introduction to Tolkien's work in the 90s as a kid. It did its job very well. I've now read the books and seen the movies and am a lifelong fan.
In the book, I always liked how Dale folk were described. Just a bunch of dudes wheeling and dealing in trade. Utilitarian types. And of course Bard killed a dragon. No big deal.
"Oh stop complaining! I never offered you first class burgular accomodations!" Love this movie (althoug hI wish the elves didn't look uglier than the orcs).
Ahh, the good old days; before elves were always portrayed as tall, perfect beings with perfect faces and perfect hair, inherently stronger, faster and wiser than anyone else.
+sebwilson96 They really do! ...I find them kinda cute, in a weird way. But I think that Wood elf design changed for The Return of the King, as Legolas looks more like a human. That, or he was adopted or stolen as a babby.
I dont know why, but I always felt kinda bad for Thorin when he is discovered in the broken barrel. This guy was practically locked in an Elvish prison for weeks, was busted out and shoved into a barrel and into water and was close to possibly drowning, barely had good enough sleep, rest, and recuperation, is in charge and responsible of twelve other dwarves and a burglar (Bilbo), and is trying to get to the Lonely Mountain in one piece to reclaim his long, lost kingdom with his adventuring party. And when he is discovered, he still tries to maintain that royal and masculine dignity by announcing who he is, just before passing out after saying "I... have... returned." The poor guy has had it rough lately. :(
Well this was 1970s Rankin and Bass, I think they went for a little more earthy, woodsy look to them. And being wood elves and not high elves, it works in a way.
That's fantastic to hear, I'm glad that you feel that way as well! You really can't experience The Hobbit until you've read the book, and you did which is wonderful.
We do! Or at least Bard recites a piece of it. But we never really got the Goblin Town song (so so sad) just a poor representation of it. Even the extended edition got it wrong still
So i'm not the only one wanting to hear "rolling down a hole" in the next movie. what songs do you think they're going to do in the next one? We got Misty Mountains, part of Goblin Town, and Blunt the Knives
*mumbles something about how the wood elves--that includes LEGOLAS, thank you very much!--look more like goblins than elves* I am glad there is a version of the song, though. I still can't get over what Rankin and Bass did to those poor Silvan Elves and Sindar--who, by the way, are made to look the same in this movie, even though they're different. >:(
1:45 When Thorin says he has returned I always hear when MacAuther said the same thing when he went back to the Philippines. Both incidents are about equally impressive. Thorin passed out after he says it and Mac didn't care about the locals, only the damage the Japanese running him out caused his image.
The Book: "Thorin appeared to them, saying 'I am Thorin, son of Thrain, king under the mountain!' and he looked it too..." Me always thinking of the cartoon version: What are you talking about, book? Thorin looked like shit when he came to Laketown!
This version honestly makes more sense to me, I don't expect how he could look so Regal after coming out of barrel and that did happen in both versions. I mean he didn't swim!
This is the greatest move ever!! the songs are the catchiest things I have ever heard.. I haven't seen the actually movie for like 5 years.. but I remeber all the songs.
Well of course mate. You could have the richest most complex characters in the world, but without a proper story line to support them they'd be nothing. Without the obvious being said, and those wonderfully sophisticated comparisons to stories I've never heard of, (with the exception of LoTR) I'm glad you agree. I was only commenting about the music but yeah, that too.
If you own the OG VHS you can hear one of Bomburs few lines in the movie where he complains about being in the Barrel and that's what Bilbo is responding to in this scene. For some reason much of the audio is lost from the original in re-releases it's extremely sad.
Fact: Listening to the singing in these movies will increase your manliness in every way. I can now wear pink and still be more manly than anyone not wearing pink.
I half expect with the new film coming up in 2 weeks that there is a slim hope a rendition of this song will make it in, though Jackson's middle earth seems to have painted the elves more like the Vulcans than singing merry folk, but, if they're drunk, I can almost see a half hearted version sung by the two elves in the wine cellar. I didn't mind that the goblin town song was nearly omitted since in context why would the goblins be singing (though the great goblin singing a bar was quite humorous), and part of me really hopes that for Mirkwood they don't have Martin Freeman singing the Attercop song while he's stabbing hideous giant arachnids in the face (sorry, "Stinging" would be more appropriate)
Yes, sadly, Jackson does not seem to have differentiated between wartime and peacetime elves. Certainly, with the shadow of Mordor and Sauron looming over them, we may expect the elves of Lord of the Rings to be serious and resolute, yet even they sang at times. The elves of this era should be merry and festive (if still a suspicious of dwarves), not angry and violent.
VikingFyre I know this sounds weird, but when Bilbo is "stinging" the spiders, there was supposed to be a song played, called "Old Fat Spider" but it did not make the cut. Its on the soundtrack though
actually Tolkien really hated the Orcs descended from corrupt elves theory he created and decided that he would rather have them be beasts with intelligence granted beyond their measure
Interesting. You seem to have ripped this clip from the DVD version which is missing some audio. Right before Bilbo says, "Oh, stop complaining! I never promised to burgle you first class accomdations!", there's the sound of knocking on barrels and complaints from the dwarves. Good song nonetheless.
That song was taken out of context. Also, think of the era this movie was made in. This was popular stuff back then. Finally, its not that bad. I think its quite catchy myself.
Eh, I think they each have their merits. Animated film hands-down wins on the soundtrack. My main issue with the animated film is that the pacing is too fast at times. Goblin Town comes to mind for "bare minimum" status, since I'm pretty sure the party spent more screen-time getting captured than in or fleeing Goblin Town. The Jackson film has the added benefit of being a prequel, so it can more closely tie itself to the Lord of the Rings. For example, the Necromancer that Gandalf fought in the original Hobbit book turned out to be Sauron, but because Tolkien wasn't thinking that far ahead at the time, no clues were given in The Hobbit to said Necromancer's nature. Jackson had to fill time, so he expanded on the things the book summed up with an exposition dump. Namely, Gandalf's side jobs and the battle at the end. So, for me, I'd say it's pick your poison: do you want the adaptation that has the same issues as the book, or the one that replaces old issues with new ones?
