It's wonderful, and has the right air/tone to it IMO.

Half the dwarves are easy going and jolly, the other half you can tell are rearing for the quest.

...the dwarves' prosthetics actually seem real. Let's hope they have this look in the final film.

I can't wait until we get to see the first movie.

He really is demented! Loving them all. Also, Gandalf bending down to fit into the picture is nice touch. Watching the Dwarves all the time makes you forget they're supposed to be short. At this point I'm already thinking of Gandalf and the Elves as giants instead of "normal people".

This really adds to the depth of each character and how we should expect them to act on screen.

Oin seems pushed to the background. In fact, have we ever seem him getting any limelight? (Unlike Kili, who is the most promoted dwarf in all the scrolls, posters, aside from Thorin).

The main dwarves (who will also get the most screen time/dialogue) are: Thorin, Balin, Dwalin, Fili, Kili and Bofur.

If so, how? I'm sure this has been discussed in other threads but I missed them. With obvious exception of Thorin, I can't help but wish the dwarves were treated equally. I'm soft-hearted .

Poor Bifur. It's probably just a mistake though? Or the prosthetics - perhaps they act like oven gloves!

7 of the 13 Dwarves would have significant roles. My best guess would be: Thorin, Fili, Kili, Balin, Dwalin, Bofur and Gloin.

The axe in his head hit the nerve that makes him not feel pain, so that's why he's in charge of grabbing anything that could be deemed hot or sharp.

Bifur would be a walking nightmare - not only does he seem vacant, but he can't feel anything - he'll costly be burning and scrapping himself! What use would he be on the Quest?

In thinking about The Hobbit, now that each Dwarf is differentiated from eachother, I wonder how they will function within the story. Ori for example, seems like the bookish younger brother, will that come out in Rivendell at all? Will he be one of the first ones trying to help Bilbo with the side door outside The Lonely Mountain? Will Ori be a source of Dwarven knowledge maybe in culture or language? He looks like a monk after all.

Screentime..but as I believe some of what Thorin says in the Book could be thrown to different Characters. Also..Campfire Stories could flesh out characters between Trollshaws/ Rivendale/Eagle Rescue/ Spiders n Mirkwood...not nessicasarry Flashbacks. But quick backstories. Also any # of these guys will VO Trolls, Goblins, Eagles, Spiders..Roac..Thrush,..? ? This quessing Game(Riddle?) will only be Explained in the Credits! Bomby( Always Trust Bomby)

If he can't feel burning - then he can't feel Smaug's flames! What a choice for a back-up for confronting Smaug!

But joking aside, maybe that is why he's on the Quest. It would be useful. Fighting Goblins in the middle of the burning tress would be his forté.
