As is your new avatar, by the way.
"As all things come to an end, even this story..." Here we read of Bilbo, who is “quiet and drowsy”, that “every now and again he would open one eye” and listen to Gandalf’s tale. Is Tolkien deliberately echoing this passage in LOTR when he writes, “At that Bilbo opened an eye, almost as if he had heard … ‘You see, I am getting so sleepy’, he said.”? - N.E. Brigand The weekly discussion of The Hobbit is back. Join us in the Reading Room for The Return Journey!

I wonder if we will see different looks for Thorin throughout the movies?

Good point, and I agree! Torn beard even?

Faenoriel

Oh yeah, he did. So much new stuff these days, that some things just float right past me. //
