“We are currently looking for slim men 17-30 years and between 165cm – 178 cm or 5’5” -5’8” AND slim women 17-30 years between 165cm – 173cm or 5’5” to 5’8” to play ELF extras,”
It’s now been changed and is asking for:
“We are currently looking for MEN based in the Wellington region aged 30 plus, medium – large build, 5’8″ – 6 foot (175cm – 183cm) Character faces, beards, missing teeth – all good”

Movies.com invites a TORn staffer to share his thoughts on “The Hobbit” every other Monday.
What makes two films based on The Hobbit one of, if not the most highly anticipated film of both 2012 and 2013 and potentially one of the biggest film smashes in history?
People simply love Middle-earth. Generations of people. Many, many millions of people.
Grandparents and parents have handed it off to children and the proliferation of genre culture has only increased the audience that looks at Middle-earth and its author J.R.R. Tolkien as one of the pillars on which so much else in popular culture, definitely including movies, is built. Read the rest right here.

Dave from HeyUGuys writes: I had a good old natter with John Rhys Davies last week about a new movie and asked him about The Hobbit. Sounds like he’s had a change in heart. By no means anything certain but he’s basically asked PJ to put him in somewhere. Guess we’ll see if he does! More..

samdir discovered this little gem while on hobbitontours.com:
“Hobbiton Movie Set will be closed for all tours from Wednesday 05 October 2011 to Tuesday 08 November 2011 inclusive. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.”
Could this be a sign that the production is heading to the Hobbiton set for a month worth of filming? Stay tuned!
