There’s some odd<\/a> (spoilers!<\/font>), peculiar<\/a> (spoilers!<\/font>) and just plain bizarre<\/a> (spoilers!<\/font>) stories coming out of the Hobbit production of late.<\/p>\n

That’s why this weekend in Hall of Fire<\/a>, we’re devoting a session to pondering what’s going through the minds of the brains trust.<\/p>\n

Is this sort of thing your nightmare hobbit script scenario? If not, when do you go, “this is too silly for words”?<\/p>\n

Or are you of the view that JRR Tolkien’s The Hobbit is, itself, so often whimsical or fantastical that additions like the above can only enhance the movie’s light-hearted appeal?<\/p>\n

So join us this Saturday, June 16 at 6.00pm EDT (New York time), when we’ll discuss all this and much more as we look at the latest Hobbit movie rumours!
