Yeah, yeah, it’s been covered, but have you actually seen Richard Armitage, er, I mean Thorin in 3-D? With all the Hobbit links flying around, I just wanted to make sure you got to see at least a small version of the 3-D posters. Click on the photo for a peek.
And really, you haven’t lived until you’ve stood next to the 1-1/2 times life size posters that were at Comic-Con. Phew! His eyes follow as you move around and what eyes they are! But as compelling as they appear, they’re absolutely no comparison to the real thing. :D
The Hobbit soundtrack is due out December 11th. Will Richard Armitage’s voice be featured? Absolutely. Fandango has an exclusive on the tracklist.

A hearty thanks to TheOneRingnet for posting a pointer to the Fandango article. I really, really appreciate all that they do. Perhaps when Ali gets a chance, she can put up a link on her site to the Amazon pre-order page, so that charity can benefit from what you purchase.
