In the last few days, some exciting announcements have come from the official Hobbit Twitter account (@TheHobbitMovie). Just tonight, they announced that advance tickets for US showings of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey will go on sale on November 7, 2012 at 9:00am Pacific Time/12:00pm Eastern.
And on Hobbit Day, following a week of goodies (including the newest Hobbit trailer!), they showed us a new poster for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, featuring Martin Freeman as Bilbo Baggins.
Will you be one of the first to buy tickets for the midnight showing of The Hobbit? And what do you think of the new poster?
Share with your Fellowship!

Lily’s first experience with Tolkien was when the eccentric Mrs. H performed all of the characters from The Hobbit in her seventh grade class. In high school, she felt obliged to decline a second date with a boy who said he had no interest in reading The Lord of the Rings. In college, she unwisely decided to reread her beloved copy of The Hobbit during finals week, with only semi-disastrous results.
When not writing for Middle-earth News, Lily tries not to unnerve her coworkers and family with her extreme geekery, but somehow, Star Wars, Star Trek, Sherlock, Merlin, Doctor Who, The Princess Bride, Back to the Future, superheroes, Disney movies, and of course, Tolkien, seem to have relevance in EVERY conversation.
