The Hobbit - Animated feature film series Can't Post

Hello, everyone!

Here's some interesting news:

There is an upcoming animated The Hobbit series, which debuts on November 26th (just one month to go!)

The series is going to have 19 episodes/chapters,like the book. Each released monthly or weekly, I don't know. They don't post updates frequently. I do hope the project is still up!

Here's their Facebook page:

And their project website:

Cheers!

Interesting... [In reply to] Can't Post

The animation technique will most likely be limited, but, of course, the series will be worth watching since they list each episode as a separate chapter of a book. And I can say I like the designs.

Although bald dwarves are apparently not canon... [In reply to] Can't Post

I like the look too though, this looks like it could be a fun watch. Now if only someone could attempt finishing Bakshi's or making FotR and TTT in the style of Rankin Bass. I'd pay many money to see that.

ONLINE [In reply to] Can't Post

It will be released online, on their site/Facebook, i believe.

I'm not sure but it looks like the creators are Spanish-speakers, i could be wrong. But what worries me is the fact that they haven't posted updates recently!

I'm sure I will take a peek and find this interesting [In reply to] Can't Post

Though the chapter by chapter structure is slightly worryingly suggestive of the "moving illustration" approach, but who knows, I might be pleasantly surprised.

The animators are from the Netherlands. [In reply to] Can't Post

Dutch is the language on the rest of the website for www.cosmiccreations.nl.

It looks like fun! Nice find and thanks for posting. I hope it proves to be a young-kid-friendly version to share with littler ones.

Is it confirmed that this is an authorized/legal adaptation? [In reply to] Can't Post

I see no indication that this is authorized either by Middle-earth Enterprises or by the Tolkien Estate.

I don't know but [In reply to] Can't Post

I guess it's kind of a fan work. I can't say much, as I don't know beyond what's been revealed to the public.
