The Hobbit Official Production Blog 7 [HD]: Peter Jackson Takes Video Tour Of Stone Street Studios 

Ahaha. I waited for Orlando to show up and then at the end, I was like; "HE WAS THE CAMERAMAN THE WHOLE TIME!" mind = blown.

"Shouldn't you be killing Orcs or something?" "Shouldn't you be directing a movie?" - EPIC WIN for Orlando against Peter. lol.

"Shouldn't you be directing a film?" That sass from Orlando

The Kiran as Legolas part is hilarious!

7:58 Thorin being taller than Gandalf looks crazy 😂 I love these blogs!

“Don’t look at me directly in my eyes”

12:51 Peter: "Shouldn't you be killing orcs or something?" Orlando: "Shouldn't you be directing a movie?" hilarious!

lol Orlando "Shouldn't you be directing a movie?" The sass is beautiful :)

I SO LOVE that Kiran was given a blonde wig for the short battle scene he was allowed! That’s love right there! He’s IN!!! So very iconic & cool for him & everyone who got to be a privilege to be a part of that. The blonde wig was BEAUTIFUL, by the way!!!

Kiran being Legolas was absolutely brilliant! :D

The best thing about these videos is that they even exist. Other movie productions have done behind the scenes videos too, but like both the trendsetter and pinnacle of excellence he is, Peter Jackson has done it bigger, better and cooler than anyone else just for us geeks.

Orlando Bloom hasn't aged a day since LOTR, when I saw the clip of just him before hand I thought it was from LOTR not the Hobbit XD He look's exactly the same

Weta workshop are a collection of some of the most talented and dedicated individuals on the planet - anything they work on is golden.

It's amazing how many people are involved in the making of the movies! Did it really take 7 some years to make it?

So was Orlando filming the blogXDD

I love the ending

I love Luke Evans and it makes me happy they brought back some of the old size doubles :D

It seems the actor and crew are having so much fun in filming The Hobbit. Now that's film-making! :)))

5:11 Lord of The Ring,, beautiful memory~

''don't look at me directly in the eyes'' Hahahahaha

As soon as I hear Kiran I got sooo excited, love him!

I love seeing all the actors with charcter’s beard, long hair dressed with hoodies and glasses 😂

13:38 how have I never seen this 😂

god I love the people working on those movies. Great to see Orli back in the wig. Ending of this blog was EPIC! haha and the Shouldn't you be directing a movie? comment nailed it

Thanks for bringing us behind the scenes. That was amazing. My mind is officially, blown!

Well that isn't true. Legolas is not 4000 years old. He is way younger. When taking a closer look at Tolkiens information about the wood elves and Thranduil and about how Legolas has never been in lothlorien begfore it is safe to say Legolas is younger then 1000 years. He is younger then Arwen. The youngest of the better known elves in Tolkiens works. Still, he would be older then 500 so yeah, it does make sense for him to be there. :)

Oh my god I'm super excited to see the movie, Peter Jackson makes the best fantasy movies ever

Peter Jackson makes me proud to be a kiwi

I cracked up so bad. Didn't see it comming the first time I watched this. Loved it. Dear good old Orli in easy clothes with his wig on.... haha great ending to a great blog. Nice to see more inside stuff. The blogs are loved.

Omfg i love the end with orlando!!!!

Just love the end ... For Orlando!

12:50 sassy Legolas killin' it.

Loved Legolas camera work!

I just adore KIli and Bofur!

Alan Lee, John Howe... my heroes. Their art is amazing!

We spend a lot of time being short. They wanted us for our bodies. Amazing.

haha the part with orlando bloom was the best! XD "I've been filming the blog"

can't wait to see Legolas again!!

These guys always make me smile makes me forget about my crappy life for a brief moment.

Oh my GAAAHD!!!! I REALLY MISS THEm ALL!!!! 😭😭😭watching this again 2012-2019

KIERAN OMG he's my favorite double

Oh man. I almost forgot that song! Now it'll be stuck in my head for a few days again :P

cannot wait for the extended box set to come out. once again peter has excelled himself

I absolutely LOVE these videos! The fact that they take the time to show us all this without showing any spoilers is just amazing!

okay well especially the last part (no spoilers for those who havnt seen the video) shows how good peter as a director really is

I love the fact these NZ vlogs always have a sense of humour. This is like Peter's other vlogs for LOTR and King Kong etc. Amazing amount of time and work that goes into these films. Can't wait for it's release. Interesting to see the cameras working at 48fps, this is what Mr Cameron is currently pushing into cinemas, and should improve the immersion massively. :)

Haha, LegoSASS.

Legolas still has it!!!!!!!!! and i knew he would! he's sooooo hot! even though he's 2937 years old....!

6:57 what a great quote that is

love that ending, it's totally fabulous!

This is so amasing. Imagine being a part of this

Yes! :D The books are fantastic! I've read The Hobbit and The Trilogy and am currently working my way through The Silmarillion :)

the no admittance sign brought back some nostalgic tears

I can't wait!

omg m so excited; i have never anticipated any other movie like this in my entire existence. m so excited.

It's amazing how Orlando Bloom hasn't aged much. Good work on getting him to play an elf all those years ago casting!

i so want that giant cat at 9:58 to be in the films, he can be like an allay for smaug or a pet for gandalf, the possibilities are endless.

Love the dice in Peter's ride !

Cool the barrel part is one of my favorites

Awesome!!! I loved it, it made my day and more!!! The ending was the best!!!

PLZ MAKE ANOTHER, i want to see another!

Very very interesting, great ending too.

LOL the ending is sooo funny !!!!

The Hobbit!!!! Peter Jackson, Crew, and Cast, amazing stuff

Part 7! FINALLY!!!!! YEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH

Everyone on this movie is such a dork. And I love it! Why can't I have been down there on the crew for this!?!?!? D'X

this is why people support good movie productions Lord of The Rings is an amazing sequel i remember seeing the fellowship in movies and it was worth the 3 hours its truly a good Movie and everything about it is awesome. takes an Army of people to make a movie. It truly shows how many people are needed to form such great movies

Wated so long for this.

james nesbitt....OH YES 15 min of heaven,great ,movie

Thanks for the info! Hope it contains some of the footage they showed at Comcon.

Awesome!

12:41 Moment of epicness. LEGOLAS!!!

I love the background music

Best. Ending. Ever.

03:50 I just died

lol that ending

love the end

Legolas Greenleaf: prince of sass =)

the end was epic

Wow...Kiran killed it as Legolas. 😏

wow man that looks so real! really like there is a movie online that isnt even out in cinemas yet -.-

Haha, at 2:45. "Where's the green frog? Hooooo ho ho ho hooo."

dude seems like he would actually be someone you could just sit back and geek out with

Man it looks like it was genuinely fun to be a cast member on them films 🎥

I was gonna say, I like that they use some of the same scale doubles!

He's the son of Thranduil, the Elven-King of the book. Therefore, it's probable he was present. He just wasn't mentioned by name. Apart from the king, none of them were mentioned by name.

Really want to see Jackson do Silmarillion next. Would love to see the hosts of Valinor march upon Melkor in Angband, and see the rise and fall of Numenor.

KIRAN!!! Lord of the scale doubles, he has returned to us! =D

The guy is still quite young. While in your young years you don't change that much.

Legolas Greenleaf *u* that perfect oh my god

legolas wasn't in The Hobbit, but very excited to see how Peter incorporates him into the story.

amen to that brother!

Epic ending!!!!

12:45 Biggest plot-twist.

Many people don’t know how much Sir Peter Jackson has done for the NZ film and tourism industry

these blogs entice me to want to watch the movie even more. good marketing strategy :)

Kiran as Legolas looks amazing

it looks so funn!!!

Now I know I wasn't the only one who screamed with excitement when the camera exposed the face of the one and only... Legolas!!!!!

I don't know about you but I can't wait to see SMAUG!!!
