The Hobbit Premier

I  love Wellington, it is a beautiful and friendly city.
It is also the home to Peter Jackson, Stone Street Studios and of course Weta Industries.
Wellington the City has embraced the the opportunity to host the grand premier of the movie, even more so than when it hosted The Return of the King when the town almost tripled in population and the red carpet extended for kilometres around the city.
The Hobbit an unexpected journey World Premiere is already transforming some of Wellington's landmarks into scenes from Middle Earth.
The Premiere is on November 28th.

Watchmen Parodies

I found these amusing , you can find more at Watchmencomicmovie.
This first one is from a special edition MAD Magazine from the 2008 ComicCon

   

 

This one I believe to be very clever. What if Stan Lee wrote Watchmen. After reading this it makes you thank goodness Alan Moore started writing for comics.
