this happened a bit before Yule, but here it is:
me and my Skav went to the early screening of "The Hobbit" with some of our friends.
this movie was so touching, I could barely hold the tears.
it
was just filled with small little details that would go unnoticed
unless you actually read the book, or even the official comic book. so
maybe in that sense, not everyone will understand why somethings are
said.
rest assure that it won't stop you from understanding the plot.
it just means you won't be in on the private jokes and meanings.
I'm a bit of a book snob, so I kind of liked that the people involved in the making of this movie did it this particular way.
it makes you appreciate reading the book.
To dungeons deep and caverns old
we must away ere break of day
to seek the pale enchanted gold
The dwarves of yore made mighty spells
while hammers fell like ringing bells
in places deep, where dark things sleep
in hollow halls beneath the fells
For ancient king and elvish lord
there many a gleaming golden hoard
they shaped and wrought, and light they caught
to hide in gems on hilt of sword
the flowering stars, on crowns they hung
the dragon-fire, in twisted wire
they meshed the light of moon and sun
Far over the misty mountains cold
to dungeons deep and caverns old
we must away, ere break of day
to claim our long forgotten gold
