This was SOOOO much better than the 2nd diary and all the photos combined!!!! Whatever reservations I had about ANY of the dwarves completely evaporated when I saw them interacting and just having fun. The only thing I was TRULY disappointed in is that they don't have their coloured hoods!! I was reaaally hoping they would since WETA made that Christmas card greeting for TORn with the dwarves in their hoods, but honestly I'm not THAT bummed out.. they look so good anyway!! I can't wait for the frame-by-frame analysis Going to take screenshots on my own and analyze them for now

if there are any, would be hanging up by the door, remember. They didn't wear them after they got inside. But I have to admit, it's looking increasingly like they may not bother with their best detachable party hoods for the movie.

This is amazing! Full walking talking dwarves, dwarves hanging out in Bag End, dwarves everywhere! A bit of a song. John Rhys-Davies (I cheered aloud when I saw him) on set. Bombur is fantastic! I actually laughed pretty hard when he was singing the song. I am starting to love the casting. So happy that I have this to look forward to. It's going to be bitter-sweet when it's all done and the Blu-ray is released and all the extra features have been watched. I don't even want to think about that! So much to look forward to now!

If I'm not mistaken don't they hang their hoods up by the door when they walk in? They could still have their colored hoods. I have actually been thinking, maybe it's raining when they show up and they usually don't wear the hoods. I'd like to hope there is still a chance they make it in.

...and I have no problem with that. Did anyone else notice the shorts? During the filming of LOTR he wore nothing but, but now it seems you rarely catch him in shorts.

The Dwarves are wonderful, much better seeing them in action. Did we see Figwit at Rivendell? My heart literally skipped a beat when Sir Chris appeared at the end.

Since there is talk about the hoods, I did notice at 3:14 in the video, Bombur is wearing his pale green hood described in the books.

particularly in the shot with their scale doubles. I noticed a blue grey, magenta, green...all much more pronounced to my eye. BTW I think this is a good thing.

It almost looks like the dwarves are attacking stationary objects, like a troll already turned to stone

I saw that too and that's what actually reminded me about the hoods. But throughout the video, we see the dwarves in Trollshaw, when they were testing themselves out full in costume in front of the camera, and I've yet to notice any form of detachable coloured hoods. Of course, they might just not be wearing them for whatever reasons... or maybe they're given hoods in Rivendell (reminiscent of Lothlorien gift-giving scene)...highly unlikely, but that's just me grasping at straws trying to come up with excuses and I don't think they'll have their hoods at all If they do have any sort of coloured hoods, it'll just be the few with coloured cloaks (but I could live with that!).

They all just go after the big bag, and then the trolls will be inserted later, and they'll most likely be moving around knocking dwarves around.

Whatever route they take, as long as the dwarves get some kind of coloured hood, I won't complain! I don't know why I'm so nit-picky about these hoods.. I'm usually not like this. I guess it's just that I read The Hobbit when I was little, and the only thing I could recall some years later was the colorful dwarves and a dragon!

stand-in troll legs held up by prop people in black costumes. Presumably both the fake troll legs and the people holding them will be edited out and replaced with CGI troll legs for those scenes.

I noticed immediately he was wearing shorts and gave a little *squee* that he's the PJ I remember.. just make him take off his socks and shoes and don those big round glasses of his and voila!

they also play their instruments. At about 13:25 8:30 you can see Dwalin with a fiddle and Bofur with either a flute or clarinet. Note: Edited to correct time.

I agree. In the Rivendell scene, there is another elf walking from right to left and it appears to be figwet/Lindir. I tried to see the colored cloaks, but couldn't. I loved seeing Christopher Lee in the end and I can't be more grateful to PJ and company for keeping my hopes so high. Opening day, ya that'll be a day I take off from work.

Bifur still has that stupid thing in his head. Otherwise it was fabulous! And I laughed out loud at the last scene.

I'm going from memory, but he is appears to be wearing the same jacket, shirt and pants that Ian Holm wore in Gollum's cave. Even his hair appears to have the same disheveled look as Ian Holm's did in the FOTR scene. If so, this is an elegant way to maintain continuity with the previous films.
