ELVEN KING THRANDUIL
IN 'HOBBIT BATTLE OF FIVE ARMIES' CHARACTER POSTER
After the stunning tapestry poster for THE HOBBIT: THE BATTLE OF THE FIVE ARMIES, released earlier this week, a mind blowing character poster has been released for Lee Pace's Elven king Thranduil, son of Oropher, who ruled over the Woodland Realm in the Second 
and Third Ages. Though inherently cautious, he eventually committed his kingdom to fighting Sauron in the War of the Ring. He was also the father of the elven prince of Mirkwood, Legolas, who was a member of the Fellowship of the Ring.

Awesome poster for Fury. STRUCK BY GENIUS sounds interesting.
ReplyDeleteit seems that Channing is venturing into a more serious waters with the new role
DeleteThat would be so weird to be a complete idiot party animal and then have a serious accident that leaves you way smarter!
ReplyDeleteeven I could finally understand maths
DeleteIt would take a pretty good hit on the head for me to become a math wiz too. :P
ReplyDeleteAnd I always like WWII stories, so I'll be checking FURY out.
it would take a bomb in my case....
DeleteThe Defining Chapter... that will be followed by another chapter: Frodo's Kids in 3D.
ReplyDeletemaybe Silmarilion... although I've heard that one is unadaptable.....
DeleteEverything is adaptable when there's money to be made and books to be raped.
Deleteor sometimes gangbanged....
DeleteThat too. Of course.
Deletenaturally....
DeleteFury looks great, I am just worried about our transformer boy being a loon. I will wait to see what the critics will make it a smash or trash it. Your coverage is always stellar!
ReplyDeletewell, with those actors in it, I wouldn't expect profound acting :)
DeleteI think there's enough war going on in the world to then want to watch it at the cinema. Saying that, FURY, does look like a very well made film. Oh, and it's got Brad Pitt in it. Just saying ...
ReplyDeleteAnd the Hobbit poster is ... delicious :)
It's true.. especially a movie glorifying American army....
DeleteThere's no glory in war. And the only thing that leads up to it is greed and stupidity. There. I said it. Now sue me.
Deletemy lawyers are already on it....
DeleteThat's what I need. A group of thugs to kick my butt so I can be good at math. Allison asks me to help her with her homework all the time and I can't do it. I feel like such a dunce not being able to do 5th grade math!
ReplyDeleteI'd rather be bad at math than kicked by a group of thugs... although they could deal with my bum in other ways LOL
DeleteI had excellent marks in all subjects at school except maths and physics.... I just don't have the brain for it...
Theresa... . did he say they could deal with his bum in other ways? He did, didn't he?
Deletethey certainly could.... and should.... I wish they would.....
DeleteMy imagination feels so violated right now.
DeleteHopefully Peter Jackson won't make a trilogy on The Silmarillion
ReplyDeletehe said this is the last he does on Tolkien.... I hope he turns to Temeraire novels...
DeleteOf course he will, Adam. And then he will reboot The Lord of the Rings. Yes, sir.
Deletewe could use a reboot of that one in ten years or so.... twould be my chance to get the role of Elven king....
DeleteTwould.
DeleteWar is terrible. But, sure makes some fantastic movie viewing and gives a eye candy view of some awesome actors.
ReplyDeletehey Dezzy; this in Donzie. I'm trying to follow under my new blog name, but having troubles. Visit if you like :)
is you here incognito, Donnzie? :)
DeleteTatum's new movie sounds compelling. And LaBeouf is acting again? Seems like I haven't seen him in anything in a while.
ReplyDeleteYep, he might take a more serious turn in his career with that role...
DeleteWe've seen LaBeouf's willie in one of his latest movies NYMPHOMANIAC :) He had actual sex in it... not even faking it...
Reading your comment to Donna, I don't think I'd want to see LaBeouf's willie. I don't find him attractive at all. But Channing Tatum is a different story.
ReplyDeleteOh and Chris Sheffield? Yes please. But Dezzy, he gets killed super early in Maze Runner. Seriously. What a let down.
Poor Chris :( his character was really warm and nice in LAST SHIP.
DeleteWhen it comes to Shia, it really is a lovely willie to see, what glee :) There are even photos of him penetrating an actress in full erection :) It is a rather delightful affair....
Holy Mary Mother of God, Brad Pitt as a tank Commander. No, no way in hell is that believable. Jesus he delivered those lines dead pan. But you know the world does need another movie that shows how the Yanks won the War (that's sarcasm).
ReplyDeleteI appreciate the sarcasm, dear :) I don't know who is worse in such films, him or his best buddy George Clooney... but then again both are pompous and full of themselves and that IS the trait of American soldiers, isn't it?
DeleteI heard about the Struck by Genius story. Interesting choice for Channing. He has really been diversifying himself these last few years. Good for him! Legolas's Dad is BAD-ASS! That poster is awesome. I'm starting to think about seeing Fury but not sure of how to fit on my movie going list.
ReplyDeleteand for some reason all of his films are huge earners too...
DeleteWe do bow to Elven king Thranduil!
