I'm really enjoying online swearing today, never tried it before. It's a bit like porn and Red Dwarf sites isn't it. Once you pop you can't stop.

The mark of a true master is to do it without actually resorting to swear words;
I fucking hate this 3D bollocks!
now becomes;

This jizzy 3D tosh is getting on my nadgers
Thorin looks like a right wanker too!
Thorin looks like a bucket of stagnant man-milk

I'm feeling quite optimistic about the movie, personally, one or two weird dwarf haircuts aside. Honestly, they need some differentiatin'. I've read the book easily dozens of times, but I don't think I could tell you anything to help you tell apart, say, Oin and Dwalin, aside from the color of their hood and the musical instrument they play.

Check out Peter Jackson's page on Facebook, seriously. There are already some pretty cool "making of" videos up.
Feel free to call me Dave!

Fantasy Flight games have a nice version of the Dwarves in their Hobbit boardgame. John Howe illustrated.
