There’s a brand new Hobbit movie on the way so here’s a chance to check out some alternative Bilbo “Bagginses”, including one that looks more than a little like Mr. Tolkien himself.
You will find lots more images in the Middle-earth album, just click the pics to explore…

These are great. I think the first picture is the one that most clearly matches what I think of in my head. I’m so excited to see the film!

Great! Love Sting hanging in the background of the first pic. I have high expectations for the movie, hope it lives it to them 🙂 … can’t wait!

I don’t really like any of these but it’s great fun to see how influenced the artists were by their own era rather than letting their fantasy go wild.

I know what you mean. Hobbits are not so obviously ingrained in the psyche the way other fantastical races are. There is a tendency to make them look too cute. I would like to see some really gluttonous fat Hobbits 🙂

…and naughty hobbits, kind hobbits, greedy hobbits, mischievous hobbits…I always imagined them as real people only smaller and with furry feet:)

Love these. The first one is probably my favorite. Do you mean a newer one than the one that came out this year?

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug is due for cinema release in the middle of December. It’s been magically stretched into a trilogy.

Ha, ha, ha…that’s what my son said about the trilogy. He said you didn’t know? I’m like well they didn’t call it Part 1 or To Be Continued or anything.
Course if I was really up to speed I would have known that. All I knew was I thought the ending sucked if I was left hanging like that…(-:
