The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, the latest movie from director Peter Jackson, conquered the box office and generated $84 million. This means that the flick officially had a better opening than any of the three Lord of the Rings movies that preceded it...

You have to understand Gandalf. Evidently, he's not the same ever since he lost Shadowfax.

There's a brand new trailer for Peter Jackson's new movie, The Hobbit. Check it out! The trailer can mostly be described as, pure awesome sauce!

Two major 2012 blockbusters I'll remember: The Avengers The Dark Knight Rises Both are definitely worth watching.

I'm sure most of you haven't missed the news that Peter Jackson will be making The Hobbit into a movie trilogy, as opposed to filming just two movies as initially intended.
