Nori, Ori, and Dori From 'The Hobbit' - UPDATED!

Source: Facebook

 

Director Peter Jackson has updated his Facebook page with a brand new look at the three dwarf brothers Nori, Ori, and Dori from his upcoming film 'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey' along with the following description:

 

These three brothers, all sons of the same mother, could not be more different from each other. Dori (Mark Hadlow), the oldest, spends much of his time watching out for Ori (Adam Brown), the youngest; making sure he’s not caught a chill or got himself killed by Wargs or Goblins. Nobody quite knows what Nori (Jed Brophy) gets up to most of the time, except that it’s guaranteed to be dodgy and quite probably, illegal. Dori, Nori and Ori are intensely loyal to each other – and whilst they are perfectly happy fighting amongst themselves, woe-betide anyone who means harm to one of these brothers.

UPDATES! Yahoo Movies has also just released a new picture of Oin and Gloin from the film with the following description:

Distant cousins of Thorin Oakenshield, these two doughty Northern Dwarves join the Company out of a sense of loyalty to their kin, and also because they have a substantial sum of money invested in the venture. Along with Bombur, Gloin is the only other married Dwarf in the Company (there being a shortage of female dwarves in general). His wife is an acclaimed beauty with a particularly fine beard. Gloin is the proud father of a young son, Gimli, who will go on to become part of the famous Fellowship of the Ring.

 


'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey' will arrive in theaters on Dec 14th, 2012.

I am most definitely reserving final judgment until I see some footage. It's just very troubling when I've been on shoots that have shot at 48fps, and the outcome is never good (And these are shoots with people from red). It gives everything a hard edge. Now he said he's doing this to better achieve the 3D, and is pretty much ignoring the 2D. Which is never a good sign, but only time will tell.

Did anyone else giggle a little when they saw these?

@ Ash - Frankly, I think you're jumping to conclusions on this one. Let's reserve judgement until we actually see some footage of the film. That sounds reasonable, yes?

Petteri-

 

Well by now I have.  And I stand entirely by my aforementioned opinion and all the people that agree with me.  Tolkein barely describes these characters at all, I am not gonna restate any opinions, they're all there a few pages back.

@jojotogi - I've seen the short and it looks nothing like film. It looks very much like video. it's extremely clean with no layer of grain. and it's red; which has a very specific look to it. Red doesn't look like other digital cameras it looks like red. The red is designed to soften pour lines and reduce their intensity; which to me eliminates the imperfections and realism that film captures. This also on occasion makes actors faces appear waxy.

The other big issue with digital is its image crumbles under the weight of wide shots. Look at something like the social network. The interiors and close-ups look beautiful, but once they go to a wide exterior or load the frame with dozens of extras the image crumbles into a very video look. this is a draw back apparent in all films shot digitally. The cameras can't handle the overload of information. Meanwhile film just captures what is there regardless of what's going on and the image never breaks down.

@ Fungusmonkey - true, but there are only a limited number of times that the technique of superimposing a actor's head on a short person's body was used in the trilogy. The illusion was mostly pulled off through practical effects unless the face of two characters of radically differing heights were seen in the same shot.

 

Also, If people are still complaining about the touch ups to the faces in these photos, look at it this way. These are photos the studios are putting out to promote the films. Of course there's going to be some tinkering with photoshop. They want this to look as presentable as possible. There's probably not going to be any of that in the final film.

@ Ash - watch the trailer for "Crossing the Line." I think PEter Jackson knows how to get the look of film with video pretty damn well.
