Though I like them, I’ve never really been a fan of the Lord of the Rings movies. In fact, I’m one of the few people who considers Peter Jackson’s remake of King Kong better than any film of the series. And though I know a lot of people are probably eagerly awaiting The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, I’m actually not. I’ll probably see it but I wasn’t really sold to the trailers.
And the poster, which came out recently, doesn’t really help. If it wasn’t the caption of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey below, I would have thought it was a remake of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. It looks more like a family friendly comedy than an adventure film.
But hey, plenty of good movies have terrible posters. Drive is a good example. So let’s hope The Hobbit is better than what the poster indicates.
