ossamentaThe first shots of The Hobbit filming!!! Oh, the LotR music... I'm almost tearing up in nostalgia. I was queueing outside the cinema in the very early hours of the morning to get tickets for The Fellowship in 2001 - I can't believe it was so many years ago.

And slim Peter Jackson! Bag End! Martin Freeman carrying the dwarves' weapons! Aidan Turner in a buzz cut (I hope it's just for the movie and not permanent < /shallow>) Rivendell! Andy Serkis in a motion capture suit!
I'm full of squee! (although I agree with ellen_fremedon's* minor rant on Peter Jackson's diphthongisation of the dwarves' names, nerd that I am.) I can't wait until... *checks imdb* December 2012, apparently. The first part, that is. Part two comes the year after.
*: It took me many years before I realised that ellen fremedon wasn't her real name...
