Thorin Oakenshield and of course our little friend Bilbo


message 3: by Maxmiriam (new)

Maxmiriam | 156 comments Kili definately. <3 and Fili. Gollum is adorable in the movie too! His expressions are so cute!


message 4: by Hope ♡ (new)

Hope ♡ Thorin Oakenshield is very much so a leader!


message 5: by L (new)

L I have always loved Bilbo and felt that 'The Hobbit' was his story & his introduction to 'the lord of the rings' that continues the tale with Frodo.


message 6: by Hope ♡ (new)

Hope ♡ I love how Bilbo gives Frodo the sword, the unbreakable vest, and the ring!


message 7: by johanna (jo) (new)

johanna (jo) (johannad_m) I'm sorry. WHAT?! Does the discussion of this topic really say "Who is your favourite character?"??!! Seriously?? D:

BILBO OF COURSE!

xD Bilbo is the best character in any series I have read, I think. He's amazing. And awesome. I was so delighted to find him in the LotR too :D He's so cool! :)


message 8: by Hope ♡ (new)

Hope ♡ What are your favorite traits that he has?


message 9: by L (new)

L His dry humor and wit. He doesn't intend to be funny or act strangely, but he does and we all love him for it. Secondly, it is Bilbo's caring side and how compassionate he is - his love for the pony in the film when he gives it an apple is so sweet (i love that part!) and finally it is his enthusiasm for adventure and not acting like the 'typical' Hobbit - for he chose to go and in doing so made himself become someone heroic, unique and very special indeed.

It is definately Bilbo's story.


message 10: by johanna (jo) (new)

johanna (jo) (johannad_m) He's really brave. And he surprises everyone - including himself. I love how all the dwarves grumble about bringing him along, but in the end ... they wouldn't have gotten anywhere near the Lonely Mountain without Bilbo. If it wasn't for Bilbo, they would have been spider supper a long time ago. If they escaped that, prisinors of the Mirkwood elves.

And his humor, Lucinda! One of my favourite lines from the book (I pretty much cheered. It was a great line) is this:

"After some while Bilbo grew impatient. "Well, what is it?" he said. "The answer's not a kettle boiling over, as you seem to think from the noise you are making."

Haha! Good on Bilbo :)


message 11: by Hope ♡ (new)

Hope ♡ What is the funniest thing he says?


message 12: by johanna (jo) (new)

johanna (jo) (johannad_m) Not sure in the movie. But that's the funniest in the book :P


message 13: by Hope ♡ (new)

Hope ♡ Cool! What about any favorite quote from anyone?


message 14: by johanna (jo) (new)

johanna (jo) (johannad_m) "I may be a burglar...but I'm an honest one, I hope, more or less."
-Bilbo Baggins, The Hobbit


message 15: by Hope ♡ (new)

Hope ♡ That was pretty good!


message 16: by johanna (jo) (last edited Feb 17, 2013 02:28PM) (new)

johanna (jo) (johannad_m) :3 And this is my favourite quote of all from the movie ... ;; So epic:

Gandalf: Well, why does it matter? He's back!
Thorin Oakenshield: It matters. I want to know - why did you come back?
Bilbo Baggins: Look, I know you doubt me, I know you always have. And you're right... I often think of Bag End. I miss my books, and my armchair, and my garden. See, that's where I belong, that's home. That's why I came back... 'cause you don't have one, a home. It was taken from you. But I will help you take it back if I can.


message 17: by johanna (jo) (last edited Feb 17, 2013 02:29PM) (new)

johanna (jo) (johannad_m) Did you know he was born on the 22nd of September? :D I found all this information about him ...

Listen: Bilbo Baggins is a Hobbit of the Shire, born on September 22nd in the year 2890 (1290 Shire Reckoning) of the Third Age of Middle-earth (using J.R.R. Tolkien's literary timeline). In 2941, the Wizard Gandalf enlisted Bilbo as a burglar for Thorin Oakenshield and Company, Dwarves intent on liberating their ancestral treasure from the dragon Smaug.

message 30: by Lótë (Iris) (last edited Mar 19, 2013 10:20PM) (new)

Lótë (Iris) (irisflowerpoppyseed) | 4 comments Bilbo and Kili. I must admit it was kind of hard getting used to some of the new characters though, where I'm so used to the ones in The Lord of the Rings movies.
But they was all really charming, and very likable.
