The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey

Description

The Hobbit movie was scheduled to release in 2012 as the first part of epic saga based on J. R. R. Tolkien's book "The Hobbit, or There and Back Again" written in 1937. If the first part of "The Hobbit" movie pictures events described in the original book, the next, second part is planned to serve as a bridge between the Bilbo Baggins' and a group of dwarves' voyage to the Lonely Mountain and the beginning of the first part of Lord of The Rings trilogy. Peter Jackson, director and executive producer of the "Lord of The Rings" films hired Guillermo del Toro to direct filming both of the parts and bring a fresh perspective in the movie plot. "I plan to change and expand the visuals from Peter's, and I know the world can be portrayed in a different way." said del Toro in his interview to Premiere magazine. The acting cast consists of Martin Freeman (as Bilbo Baggins) previously starred in BBC contemporary adaptation of the Sherlock Holmes and Richard Armitage (as Thorin Oakenshield) know as Robert Lovelace in BBC Radio 4's production of "Clarissa: A History of a Young Lady"

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader movie was released in 2010, the year of "Ironman 2," "Harry Potter 7", and "Tron: Legacy". So, the producers and director of "Chronicles of Narnia: Voyage of the Dawn Treader" clearly felt the pressure to deliver a visual masterpiece. Capitalizing on the special alchemy of 3D, they succeeded. "A painting engulfs Lucy and Edmund Pevensie and their cousin Eustace, taking them back to Narnia and stowing them away on sailing ship The Dawn Treader. The brave and somewhat precocious warriors battle a fierce collection of monsters and villains, resisting their own powerful temptations, as they join forces with Reepicheep, a warrior mouse, to save Narnia. The computer animators do so well with the Lion, the Mouse, and the fairy princess, viewers willingly suspend disbelief. Of course, a mouse can out-maneuver a chimera."The producers and director paid proper respect to C.S. Lewis, early twentieth century author and scholar, who penned the novel The Voyage of the Dawn Treader as one among his Chronicles of Narnia. Lewis, a leading authority on medieval quest romance, crafted his story according to the traditions and conventions of the hero's quest, and the movie wisely recreates his craftsmanship. The film-makers achieve an unlikely hybrid of medieval story and twenty-first century imagery. They left open the question, however: Would audiences overdosed on 3D graphics and epic adventures fill the seats for another one?
