Waiting around for The Hobbit, An Unexpected Journey?

By Elisha Stfleur


Tension is rising around the opening for the anticipated 4th addition to the Lord Of The Rings trilogy. The Hobbit is being preempted with lots of pre-release activities and media events. The movie, scheduled to start playing in theaters on December 14th, really a prequel of the renowned anthology of The Lord of the Rings" inspired and based on the books by J. R. Tolkien.

Coupled with the movie release comes a slue of play toys along with other accessories like LEGO's release of its new theme, The Hobbit - An Unexpected Journey

The Storyline

The chief character, Bilbo Baggins, is easily ensconced in his home, that to some is a hole, but to the hobbit of Middle Earth, it is home in the midst of an attractive place, when he is approached by Gandolf the Grey. The dwarves are needing a champion to correct the ills done to them. This day, Gandolf is looking for this champion within The Shire.

It appears that an evil dragon, Smaug, has stolen a fortune in gold belonging to the dwarves, in combination with their home that lies within the Lonely Mountains of Middle Earth.

Bilbo would be rather pleased if Gandalf and his crew of dwarves would find another possibility for this rescue mission, because he is quite comfortable with his present environments and has no wish to change them.

However, prior to he can refuse, he's swept up into the journey of a lifetime and finds not just the amazing sense of well-being that arrives from championing the causes of those who are slighter and weaker, but in addition the degree to which his own bravery, resilience, and determination (qualities he formerly did not realize he owned) can lead him.

Bilbo transforms from a scared, tiny being into a leader of a crew of friends battling inconceivable peril and overcoming seemingly insurmountable obstacles. He brings his new found friends into the frey against giant spiders, scary creatures, as well as a troll from whom he wins a special ring that will later drive his nephew Frodo over a life altering journey of his own.

The Lord of the Rings anthology has, certainly, 3 components:

- LOTR: The Fellowship of the Ring -- LOTR: The Two Towers * LOTR: The Return of the King

This trilogy follows the adventures of Frodo and his friends as they all try to destroy the One Ring, versus all probability, when it's revealed that, in the wrong hands, a ring with this much dominance could destroy Middle Earth and all of its inhabitants.

Frodo is running from the Dark Lord Sauron as he attempts to complete the quest of obliterating the ring and its dominance given to him with his uncle Bilbo and Gandolf the Gray.

The Hobbit - An Unexpected Journey

For those who could have chosen to see the movies without originally reading the books, the Lord of the Rings, is in all probability hard to understand because of the reality that it really is a prequel to a later film coming out this December, The Hobbit, An Unexpected Journey.

The associations and friendships evident within the Lord of the Rings have been actually created and founded within The Hobbit, An Unexpected Journey. The narrative behind how Bilbo finds himself in ownership with the One Ring, his deep relationship with Gandalf the Gray, along with the back chronicle on the evil overlord Sauron will be established within this movie.

Synopsis

Whether the book is read or not, those that are new with the series will locate this epic story a pleasure ride with twists and turns to keep the most skeptic viewer thoroughly enthrawled.

For persons that needed more foundational information to connect the associations of the characters in The Lord Of The Rings anthology, this chronicle will truthfully complement the sweeping and rich images invoked by the anthology.

C.S. Lewis was supposed to be a valued friend of Tolkien and that he penned his four books set inside of the same past era. We believe that this is true as well as the reality that Tolkien's stories are overflowing with more than Whimsical tales within a make believe world.
