The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey - a review

Image
I don't remember how old I was when I first read The Hobbit and The Lord of the Ring trilogy . . . but I was totally enamored of them.  When the animated movie of The Hobbit was released with Orson Bean giving voice to Bilbo Baggins, well, I was thrilled.  http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0077687/ But nothing can express the anticipation I felt waiting for The Lord of the Rings Trilogy to arrive in full living color to the big screen!! The anticipation of "The Hobbit an Unexpected Journey" was nothing to compare with the LoR trilogy and so it arrived a little unexpected for me.  I was informed that it too, was going to be a trilogy . . . I got out my book looked at the 19 chapters and the 308 pages and said no way . . . and it was with a little disappointment that I went to see the first movie knowing I would not get the entire story in one sitting. Despite the wait and the disappointment of knowing I wouldn't view the whole story; I came away once again enamored

I've got places to go and things to do!  So, I wanted to take a quick moment to remind everyone -- The One True and Only God of the Universre -- the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob -- does not operate by a pagan calendar . . . any pagan calendar or device. Go out enjoy your Christmas and New Years Holidays.  Don't do stupid things like run  up your credit cards and buy things you can't afford.  Don't make committments you think you won't have to keep. And REMEMBER above all things we are on a time table but it is God's.  If you haven't made Jesus Christ your Lord and Savior and submitted yourself to God's word instead of reinventing God in your image. . . well you need to do that because time IS running out -- it just won't be tomorrow! MERRY CHRISTMAS!
