We have a director. We have a script. We have a cast. And filming has finally begun!
With all legal issues and director shenanigans finally resolved, TORN’s Hall of fire will hold a series of fortnightly (that’s once every two weeks) Hobbit Rumours Round-up chats over coming weekends that will give Hobbit fans the opportunity to dissect and speculate upon all the latest news from the productions.
These fortnightly chats — starting this Saturday March 25 — will alternate every other week with our chapter-by-chapter discussion of The Hobbit. Yes, that’s tonight! Read more for all the details.
So be sure to join us tonight at 6pm EDT in #thehalloffire on our IRC server and help us pick over all the latest news and rumours!
