Would love a screen cap or something like from the outdoor DOS scene where the dwarves are negotiating with Bard after their barrel escape. The lighting is such, methinks Thorin looks especially beautiful HeartWink.

Verily, the effect of his #Majesty is so PROFOUNDTongue, thousands worldwide have sagged to their knees, been frozen in place with eyes staring in longing, or simply keeled over. Perfectly understandable, especially if Thorin is in EPIC mode. Which, admittedly, is pretty much all the timeWink

The song - for me - not so much, 'coz I don't see Thorin that way at all. Tho I think *sigh* there will be a lot of stuff like that.....*grins* many online battles will be joined WinkShockedCoolCrazy. Thank you for posting the link, some of these people have real skill.

On the older but grittier side, I like what these vids did with "Radioactive" re capturing IMO the fire and desperate journey of Thorin. Hope all get re-mixed with newer films at some point - or maybe I need some of my OWN sw.Unsure

Thorin's hair deserves as much exposure as possible.

Why certainly it doesHeartHeartHeart! Let's have another lookTongue. Immediately obvious (besides the noble profile) is the utter sumptuousness of these shimmering soft waves, tumbling luxuriously as shot silk *drool*HeartHeartHeart Just makes you want to reach out and feel it coil around your fingers *cough* except no-one in their right mind would paw at the Mountain King. Even the elven guards who imprisoned Thorin kept their hands off, but the ensuing depression Elros felt as he walked away (knowing it would ever be his lot to have flat limp straight locks) was what sent him over the edge for a night of heavy drinking. So, Thorin's hair was a catalyst in the escape, providing the burglar with OPPORTUNITY.WinkShocked



Even a mountain survival speed hike affected not the decadent nightshadow mane of the Mountain King. Though many round the world would feel pangs of guilt and self-doubt after viewing DOS, in that we were SUPPOSED to be aghast at the horror of the first tendrils of dragon-sickness affecting Thorin's mind. And so we did.Shocked But many of us were hopelessly *cough* distracted by the silken mass of espresso waves as well as the INTENSITYEvil. On the other hand, looks like things are shaping up well in that regard for BOFA *epic hair flowing in the breeze, smouldering eyes, and chocolate leather.....TongueHeartWink



I so would have bought this...Tongue




THIS...




Hmm - suspect this thread had some interest because folks were hoping for some sneak BOFA shots. Well, it's not like all the costume mystery didn't get spoiled already, far as I can tell. Best I can do are these blurry vblog shots - but nonetheless think we can see that Thorin is none too happy. The elves are getting on his nerves - probably Elros at the door begging hair care secrets, or for some spare dwarf hair to make a wig or something.Wink And Thorin already looks BADASS - not his grandfather, no indeed. More like a Nordic god HeartHeartHeartTongue






Finally, well do I know the enmity between elves and dwarves - but, yah know, just couldn't resist. Because I wonder if it was PLANNED that actors would be cast who look completely EPIC in snow?ShockedCool (Thanks to VValar heads-up for the Thranduil painting at: http://variones.deviantart.com/art/Thranduil-475965085)

Poor Elros! Doomed to a life of flat limp locks and scrubbing the cells, for being a poor inebriated guard. But maybe Elros will end up on the front lines of the BATTLE *snigger* where at least he will get a helmet to cover the lank strands.Wink

He's not homeless tho. 'Coz millions round the world are ready to toss out their housemates and order in some gourmet mealsTongue. That's one UNREALISTIC thing about these moviesFrown - Thorin's lonely wanderings. As often has been discussed, even the waitress running off that fast totally throws us out of the film, e.g. it's IMPOSSIBLE to believe after that brief smile she wouldn't be just hanging around, offering a towel, or something. Sneaking pastry from the kitchen and like that.Wink

     *sniff* ELVES [In reply to]  

*Cough* weeeeelll - I would offer that the book has some things (as far as my fuzzy memory goes) that the movies happily move along (e.g. thought in the book the dwarves stay for a while at Bilbo's). And some gaps - tho it doesn't sound in the book as tho Thorin was lacking in fodder, so to speak.

But as for elves, re my beloved dwarves, they are not going to want this stuff, it will make them sick:




We can guess from the raiding of Bilbo's pantry that a good dwarven meal looks like:



Except, of course, for his #Majesty, who is SO empowered, he manages to lead an entire company through untold dangers, fight, and make epic speeches through three films on a barely-touched bowl of soup and one mouthful of bread at Bree. And a few swigs of who-knows-what from his flask.



I keep telling you guys, the man dwarf is a GOD Wink

Sure Thorin enjoyed the fun ride on the way out, and above and beyond just considerately saving the best of the best seat for Bilbo...
