Happy 4th of July, everyone. What better way to celebrate our independence than checking out some images from Peter Jackson’s upcoming two-part adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit. Part 1, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, will be released December 14th, 2012 and Part 2, The Hobbit: There and Back Again is coming our way December 13th, 2013 (as long as the Mayan’s were full of crap). I’m not sure what The Hobbit and Independence Day have to do with one another, but if you figure it out, I get the credit.
