Q
I was first introduced to The Hobbit when I was in the 6th grade. We went to see it for a class field trip at, I think it was the Drury Lane theater. I remember sitting in the darkness of the theater and wondering what was I going to see. I have never heard of the books, but I remember seeing parts of a cartoon version of The Hobbit on the television and thinking to myself, "This is pretty cool, weird, but cool."
What I saw with my classmates took us to another world and I was pretty happy that we got to experience this live. It was cool seeing Bilbo and Gollum in the caves and how Gollum looked like a giant frog with a lisp. The sets and the lighting was fascinating. The one moment that I'll never forget is when Smaug came out and walked across the stage. That moment was just remarkable.
Fast forward to millions of years later and having read The Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings trilogy I could not wait to see these stories on the big screen. The Lord of the Rings trilogy blew me away. I mean, how can you not geek out when you see thousands of orcs about to attack Helm's Deep? I loved them so much that I wanted to see The Hobbit on the big screen, too. Now here we are a week and a half away from the final Hobbit movie and my anticipation is growing.
Seeing these Hobbit movies have bought back memories of seeing the play when I was in elementary school, but seeing it with today's technology is a sight to behold within itself. There are so many great scenes in these movies, from the escape on the river with the barrels, Bilbo getting the One ring from Gollum, the introduction of Smaug and of course the fight scenes, those are always great to watch.
Now to prepare our readers for the final part of Bilbo's adventure we are hooking up one lucky reader with a Hobbit prize pack. You are probably asking yourself,"What is in the prize pack and how do I win this?" Well, keep reading and we will let you know.
Prize pack includes:
1. A copy of The Hobbit book, because yours are probably all dog eared and marked up like mine.
2. 3 mini-posters from the new Hobbit film. (one for each room of the house)
3. The Hobbit treat bags. Yes, they say Happy Halloween on them, but you can use them for anything.
4. 2 The Hobbit: Battle of the Five Armies shirts size small or Hobbit-sized.
5. 2 anytime passes for The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies.
