I think the story just had Bilbo sneaking around invisible with his ring on for several weeks, until he can get the imprisoned dwarves out, but to my recollection it didn't really go into any specific story-lines about Mirkwood.
So I'm excited to see it! Peter Jackson can do no wrong in my opinion. He added extra elements to Lord of the Rings that I think expanded the story and made it even better.
Basically the only thing I could think of was a lead-in to Lord of the Rings. I thought I heard that they were casting a "Drogo" which is Frodo's father who drowns (which is why Frodo was living with his Uncle/cousin Bilbo). LOL, Yeah you can probably tell I've read the books a couple times.
I think I just labeled myself as a geek.  |
Come geek out with me. I have read the LotR series more times than I can count. 
I agree about this being a great career move for Evi - people are DEFINITLEY going to know who she is now!

Yes, Brooke, they do tend to blow things out of proportion. She didn't really take that much of a break either. She did a few films on the side, just not major roles. But yeah, I think all she meant by what she said was that she wanted to get out of the spotlight for a while. I know it bothered her that she couldn't go outside her house without a bunch of photographers snapping pictures of her. That's why there's so many pictures of her middle finger. LOL!

They are doing the hobbit in 2 parts. The first is called "The Hobbit: An unexpected Journey" and the second one is called "The Hobbit: There and Back again".
