It is interesting to watch that trailer again after seeing the film (several times). It continue to find it surprising that so many people that have been fans of Jackson's Middle-earth films, including the first two Hobbit films, find this one so disappointing. I really like it a lot. Although I must say that the trailer made me want to see the EE more than want to see the TE again. Not that I won't take that opportunity soon after March 24.

Edited to add: Or maybe soon after March 3. I didn't notice that at first!

And the trilogy set with Bilbo's journal is going to be available in the UK:

Since it's pretty similar to the one Lali's friend designed, I won't need to lay out for it after all!

Still aiming to hold out for the EE (well, I can last out for Lent, at least! ;) )
There is magic in long-distance friendships. They let you relate to other human beings in a way that goes beyond being physically together and is often more profound.
