Regards the Blue wizards they do get a mention in the appendices, but they are not named except in UT- so PJ did avoid being sued there- he mentions them as the Blue wizards (which he has the rights to do) but then Gandalf claims he has 'forgotten their names' (as they dont have the rights to the book containing them).

In the case of Bree they wont be able to use a single line of actual Tolkien dialogue from  UT or have it play out exactly the same way or the Tolkien Estate might have a case.


But then as PJ and the Coven seem to hate any dialogue ever written by Tokien that shouldnt present them with any problems.



Congrats on 2000! cheers

Some stills I grabbed from the recent fan event video-


Going on the weapon this would appear to be Bolg-

The Desolation of Smaug pre-release thread [2] [SPOILERS] - Page 38 Vlcsnap-2013-11-06-23h30m14s112_zps4daf7d6d


But the graphic on the monitor seems to show something a lot more Azog like than what we have seen touted as Bolg so far, another change to make Bolg look more like Azog?

The Desolation of Smaug pre-release thread [2] [SPOILERS] - Page 38 Vlcsnap-2013-11-06-23h30m24s9_zps6df74d40

Its a spiders maw opening as it closes down on the screen- exactly the same shot used for Shelob as she pursues Frodo in fact, more nods to the film that cannot be named but rules them all-

The Desolation of Smaug pre-release thread [2] [SPOILERS] - Page 38 Vlcsnap-2013-11-06-23h31m49s117_zps33401202

Orcs attacking Lake Town-

The Desolation of Smaug pre-release thread [2] [SPOILERS] - Page 38 Vlcsnap-2013-11-06-23h32m26s229_zps7153c5f8

Beorn (I'm guessing we can kiss goodbye to Gandalfs humorous and clever introduction to him then in favour of yet another ludicrous action sequence)

The Desolation of Smaug pre-release thread [2] [SPOILERS] - Page 38 Vlcsnap-2013-11-06-23h31m04s182_zpse37e4e13

Not sure when watching this if its a new sequence or is from Goblin Town in AUJ- I am hoping the later given how preposterous looking it is-

The Desolation of Smaug pre-release thread [2] [SPOILERS] - Page 38 Vlcsnap-2013-11-06-23h33m59s131_zpsa49c1fcd


Oh good more wire work yet more physically implausible goings on-

The Desolation of Smaug pre-release thread [2] [SPOILERS] - Page 38 Vlcsnap-2013-11-06-23h37m49s126_zpsc6be032b

Dwarves captured by elves somewhere around the spider fight stuff-

The Desolation of Smaug pre-release thread [2] [SPOILERS] - Page 38 Vlcsnap-2013-11-06-23h36m12s171_zpsc48df2f7

Thranduil cutting a dash even when fighting somewhere-

The Desolation of Smaug pre-release thread [2] [SPOILERS] - Page 38 Vlcsnap-2013-11-06-23h32m38s93_zps07efbd5e

Sir Ian and McCoy try to remember what scene they are supposed to be in and completely fail to get a single clue from their surrrounds, leading to a lot of swearing-

The Desolation of Smaug pre-release thread [2] [SPOILERS] - Page 38 Vlcsnap-2013-11-06-23h34m35s242_zps3303a508

Thranduil still killing stuff, but not sure where- somewhere with a lot of arches in its architecture-

The Desolation of Smaug pre-release thread [2] [SPOILERS] - Page 38 Vlcsnap-2013-11-06-23h32m48s167_zpsf08b3356


And finally the PR banner for DOS- can you spot the Hobbit of the title? Its like Where's Wally only with Bilbo, and harder to find.

Thorin and Legolas are the main characters Figgs. Get with the program! Razz 

Also, no one likes Bilbo.

I'm pretty sure that is the new Bolg design. If I were Conan Stevens, I'd be pretty fucking pissed off.
