EPISODE 4 – “There and Back Again – Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit”

Well, it’s here. The Hobbit trailer gave us a peek into what Peter Jackson has in store for us, so we decided that was something worthy of an episode.

You can see the trailer here.

In this episode, Ben and Steve look back at the Lord of the Rings trilogy and look forward to The Hobbit in this episode.

What’d you think of the trailer? Like it? Love it? Hate it? Has it raised your expectations? Lowered them? Chime in below! You can also contact us via e-mail, Twitter, or Facebook!

Thanks for listening and Godspeed!

    Fun broadcast! I love it when the commentators love their subject, I’m ready to watch Rankin/Bass and Peter Jackson Middle Earth flicks from now to Christmas! Wasn’t Galadriel beautiful in the trailer? She was always a little sweet on Gandalf. Remember she wanted him to rule the White Council, rather than Saruman. But you guys brought up an interesting point. Peter Jackson -knows- people are going to think they are in love!

    Great Podcast, I’m going to go back and listen to the earlier ones now!

    Yes, Gerry, for whatever reason — everything in that trailer was put in there FOR a reason. Some of it MIGHT be just because those were the most dramatic (and FINISHED) shots they had. But I wonder if Jackson wanted people to be thinking, “wha-huh?”
