lol what (with appropriate gifs)

So today I got the news that our schedule means we start school in two weeks.

...I haven't finished the essay *cough*thatIcompletedandwassentbackasincompletelet'snotpointtoomanyfingershere*cough* and we're starting school in two weeks.

I have the Hobbit on the mind....

So, The Hobbit, amiright?  A book written by J.R.R. Tolkien as part of his Middle-Earth mythos, The Hobbit has delighted generations, and is currently a trilogy of movies based off this fabulous are being made, directed by Peter Jackson.

So, you probably have already seen the trailer video for the Desolation of Smaug, the second in the movie trilogy, which is slated to premier in the U.S.A. December 13th, 2013.  (So excited gah) If you haven't, here it is.

But something that made my life even more than the trailer was the sequel to the trailer.

Let me explain.  A YouTube group, Happy Hobbit, made a reaction video to their watching of the trailer.  (By the way, Happy Hobbit's videos are amazing; definitely check them out if you have the time.)  Anyhoo, back to the story.  So, Peter Jackson, the Peter Jackson, saw their reaction video and posted it to his Facebook.  And not only that, but he showed the video to the cast--Lee Pace (Thranduil), Orlando Bloom (Legolas), and Evangeline Lily (Tauriel)--and had their reaction filmed.  And then he posted the reaction video to the reaction video to his Facebook.  AND THAT VIDEO MAKES MY LIFE OKAY.  Every time I watch it I'm in tears, with laughter, and awesomeness, and, well, a bit of embarrassment, to be honest.  It's not me or anything in the video, but it's a fangirl reaction, and it's weird to think that the people who play the characters I fangirl about on a daily basis witnessed it.

But despite that, AWESOME OKAY.

*ahem*

Also, apparently Empire Magazine did a spread on the upcoming Hobbit movie (I want that issue...) AND THERE ARE REALLY AWESOME PICTURES.  REALLY AWESOME.

Welp, I'm going to wrap this up.  Quote time!

I drew a comic based off all the news that had Whovians everywhere in a tangled, sobbing mass on the floor, crying simultaneously tears of joy and sorrow.  I am now going to subject you to it.  I got 15 notes on it I am so proud of myself.  :D
