Happy Hobbit
“It’s a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there’s no knowing where you might be swept off to.” When Kellie and Alex Rice’s reaction video to The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug was responded to by the cast, the sisters nicknamed “Kili and Fili” were thrown headlong into the best adventure a Tolkien fan could ask for. Join Happy Hobbit to hear about their webseries that brings Middle-earth into you daily life and the many joys fandom has brought!
