More Favorite Hobbit and Thorin Moments from SDCC

Another favorite Photo: The Hobbit Cast at the San Diego Comic-Con Panel

A few more favorite moments from HobbitCon yesterday that are now making their way to the public light. 

I was watching the interview below live thanks to TheOneRing.net but couldn't hear it well because of the background noise. Among other questions Quickbeam from TORN asks Richard Armitage about Tolkien. More proof from the interviews yesterday, if any is needed, that Richard Armitage is a very intelligent and articulate man.

I loved that he was having fun too, enjoying the moment, comfortable but reserved as he is by nature. He also had a smile and that mischievous twinkle in his eyes. I would love to know what Richard Armitage thinks about this moment in his career. Hope someone asks him in a future interview.

Another view of the panel - not mine of course - I wasn't there. 

Update Jul 20, 2012: Part II of The Hobbit Press Conference (Part 1 above). Good Audio. Thanks to  www.lacosacine.com for both parts of the conference.

As a Lord of the Rings film fan, I also so enjoyed seeing Elijah Wood, and Andy Serkis, and Sir Ian McKellen, so united with the new cast, Martin Freeman and Richard.  Loved hearing from Philippa Boyens because we rarely do, and of course, all thanks a thousand times to Peter Jackson. 

I also loved that moment in the EW.com interview when the interviewer mentioned Richard III!

Can't wait for the next Hobbit Video Blog!
