Official 'The Hobbit' Thread - Part 5

Thorin looks kinda like a dwarf version of Mel gibson in Brave heart, hair and all.

 

[Brother Jack]

Dwalin looks by far the most 'bad-ass', and Nori's star-hair is almost as bad (in a stylistic fashion) as Kili's undwarfness.

Yeah, I haven't been able to reconcile that hair. It's just too cartoonish. The axe head sticking out of Bifur's head is not good either, it strikes me as Jackson going too far over the top. It's something he's prone to do.

bullsh**.

 

[Project862006]

not grounded enough for some people i guess lol

 

[Whiskey Tango]

I want realism in my movies about magic invisibility rings and elves and undead and wizards.

Personally, I'm not talking about realism, I'm saying THE STAR-HAIR looks dumbass-stupid. If that's what Jackson was going for, then well done mission accomplished

Now The Bombur-stupid is a stupid that I enjoy

 

[Whiskey Tango]

I'm saying THE STAR-HAIR looks dumbass-stupid.

Oh yeah I agree with that. He's almost my least favorite one. The one I dislike the most is the weird googly-eyed one under Kili. That face is punch worthy. of course that's the actor's problem, not Jacksons, I guess.

To each their own. I like the star-hair. Its so eccentric and personal. Kili is the only one i dont like.

Googley eyes with the monk haircut is goofy looking. Kind of looks like he might be a bit slow.

I don't mind Kili too much, but they could've at least slapped a bulbous nose prosthetic on him or something... he just looks like a dude.

But Fran and Philippa wanted a hot dwarf to fall in love with a hot elf. You know something for the ladies.

Ugh the thought of that storyline makes me retch.

 

[regwec]

It's a ridiculous idea that is guaranteed to have unintended comic effect.

I always expected a lot of diversity in these Dwarves and therefore for some of them to look odd. It is the only sure-fire way of distinguishing them, if indeed you do want to flesh every one out as a distinct character. But Kili's baby-face and bum-fluff immediately tells you something is up. He doesn't fit at all. He looks far more feminine and pretty than Viggo as Aragorn, and plenty of women seemed to gladly accept him as the romantic lead. PJ has overplayed his hand with this.

Or a long beard.

 

[Victarion]

I find these fantastic humanoids to be unrealistically adapted by their kind's standards.

 

[regwec]

Nobody is talking about realism; Kili just looks crap.

Not only is Peter Jackson building on technology James Cameron pioneered on Avatar, he is also building on elements of Macrophilia we saw when Neytiri rescued a near air choked human Jake. I, for one, welcome this new trend of presenting esoteric sexual fetishes in huge event films.

TDKR - BDSM

The Hobbit - Macro/Microphilia.

TDKR had BDSM?

And lol when Neytiri was holding Jake at the end of Avatar it was extremely disturbing.

I hope the other dwarves treat Kili as the 'ugly' one and that no women dwarves will touch 'the freak' hahaha

 

[Venomfan]

can someone manip a picture of Gloin, Oin, Balin, Dwalin, Bifur, Dori, Nori, and Bombor all together

they are the ones who definitely look like Dwarves, and apparently if more looked like them people would have trouble telling them apart. which seems ridiculous because those guys all look very different
