4/27/12:
-Many Hobbit spoilers revealed at CinemaCon (oops, just fixed this link!!)
-Peter Jackson responds to CinemaCon controversy
- Collider interview with Luke Evans (Bard the Bowman) about the joy of filming The Hobbit, and watching footage at 48 fps.

- A fan meets Billy Connolly (Dain Ironfoot) in New Zealand over Easter, from the Wairarapa Times-Age: "Comic tale to last lifetime."

"In terms of skyrocketing career moves, Armitage will be the ultimate winner. Thorin will be a more important part of this film than many realize and the Shakespearian tragedy elements, with his talent and good looks, make this a perfect situation for him."
