So I'm not allowed to show you guys pictures from Hobbiton, but Peter Jackson is! Just pretend that the following picture is me walking through the door of Bag End, and not PJ. And when I come home, I'll be able to show you the actual pictures. And to be clear, we weren't allowed to actually go inside the hobbit hole, but it WAS totally done up from the outside, just like it looked in the lord of the rings. It really was incredible.
Anyway, I got these pictures for "liking" the new Peter Jackson page, after hearing on NATIONAL NEWS that he had just made the page on facebook.

In Bag End
And just for a bit of fun, compare the picture below with the picture that follows. It would appear as though a recreation of the scene in 1999 was done here in 2011.

In 2011

In 1999 (same shoes)
On the news they also said that filming has officially begun. No turning back now! And I'll be here during most of the shoot! Here's hoping casting calls for extras will be somewhat accessible to me.
Very, very cool... I 'liked' PJ, too, from your page. :)
