My Precious!

Be Stunned by the Unreal New Zealand Locations We Know as Middle Earth [VIDEO]

by Isabella Kapur | 1:15 pm, June 18th, 2013


In case you were doubting whether the amazing scenery in The Lord of The Rings trilogy and The Hobbit were real, prepare to be rendered speechless. I know that the video ends with Martin Freeman basically telling me to go to New Zealand, but I don’t care that I’ve fallen for the tourism marketing. I want to go there and back again.

Fact From the Vapor of Nuance

Amanda Abbington Joins the Cast of Sherlock (Maybe?)

by Susana Polo | 2:00 pm, March 26th, 2013

Series 3 of the BBC’s runaway hit Sherlock has begun filming, much to the delight of its rabid fanbase. But there’s apparently one last minute addition to the cast who had yet to be announced, at least according to some folks who were in Portland Square in Bristol, England and shot some video there. If they’re to be believed, Amanda Abbington, longtime partner of Sherlock star Martin Freeman, has joined the series.

Things We Saw Today: The Hobbit, With Cats

by Rebecca Pahle | 5:00 pm, March 18th, 2013

As Jill pointed out, the cat version of Bilbo looks an awful lot like Crookshanks from Harry Potter. Anyway, everyone knows Martin Freeman is actually a hedgehog. (By Andrea Femerstrand, via Geek-Art)

The Hobbit Meets The Office In This Unexpected Parody [VIDEO]

by Jill Pantozzi | 11:36 am, January 5th, 2013

This is not your run of the mill mash-up. This is a literal one. YouTuber EagerBeaverFilms took footage from The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey and slipped in faces of the characters from Britain’s The Office. To rather unusual effect. See for yourself.

Oh My Stars and Garters

BBC Trailer Shows Anglophiles What They’ll Be Watching Over the Next 12 Months [VIDEO]

by Rebecca Pahle | 5:45 pm, January 1st, 2013

What have we Anglophiles got to look forward to in 2013? Aside from Doctor Who, that is. This two-minute trailer for BBC One’s upcoming season has added several things to my To Watch list, among them season (sorry, series) three of Luther, The Village (O HAI John Simm!), Miranda (aka That Show I’ve Been Meaning to Watch for Like Three Years Now, I’ll Get Around To It in 2013 I Swear), The White Queen (that War of the Roses drama told from the women’s perspective), and Ripper Street.

But not Sherlock. Because that’s nowhere close to filming yet, as Martin Freeman and Benedict Cumberbatch are off being über-successful, those jerks.

Questions! Questions That Need Answering

Forget Boring Interview Questions! Why Not Engage the Cast of The Hobbit In a Game of FMK? [VIDEO]

by Rebecca Pahle | 11:30 am, December 16th, 2012

What, did you think that because The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey has come out we would stop posting The Hobbit stuff? Oh, you sweet summer child. MTV’s Josh Horowitz sat down with Martin Freeman, Sir Ian McKellen, and Andy Serkis for a round of Middle Earth-themed FMK, that most mature of games wherein you must decide which of three people (or people/Hobbit/orc/dragon/fiery disembodied eye, in this case) you would marry, which you would kill, and which you would, er, “have relations with.”

All of them take the questions quite seriously.
