There have been discussions for a long time now whether or not the Hobbit movies should be filmed in New Zealand like the Lord of the Rings trilogy. People haven’t agreed with each other, to simplify the matter.
But now it’s been decided! The Hobbit will be filmed in New Zealand! This decision was revealed earlier today.
I am really happy about this. New Zealand was the perfect place for Middle-earth, and I couldn’t imagine another place suitable for filming The Hobbit. Now I look even for forward to watching these movies in the cinema and once again get to enjoy the beautiful landscapes of New Zealand and the fantastic work behind the scenes by Weta!
