Hobbit habitats for humanity

If you queued up for Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings movie trilogy, you'd probably feel right at home in the Hobbit Motel, in Otorohanga, New Zealand. The motel's two hillside burrows are faithful replicas of the fictional hobbit dwellings— right down to the circular windows and doorways, red-and-beige walls, and camouflaged exteriors. The real-life rooms are scaled to human proportions, though, so actual hobbits might find them disagreeable.

The Hobbit Motel is only one part of Woodlyn Park, a bizarre collection of lodgings that includes a 1950s railway car, a dry-docked patrol boat, and a grounded airplane from the Vietnam War. As if that weren't eccentric enough, the complex caters to visitors of the nearby Waitomo Caves, where the star attraction is a colony of glowworms. 011-64/7-878-6666, woodlynpark.co.nz.






An interesting place to stay. But it's a Man version of a hobbit hole, wouldn't you say? It lacks a certain warmth, and it's not really under a hill. But I give them an A for Effort.

Casting trivia

.
Trekmovie.com is reporting that at a convention this weekend, Patrick Stewart mentioned that PJ had wanted him to play Gandalf in LOTR, but Stewart had lobbied for a different role. He didn't end up in the movie, he believes, because he had some criticisms about the script, and says he doesn't think he'll be contacted for The Hobbit, either.

Stewart wouldn't say which role he wanted, but I can hazard a pretty confident guess: Denethor. That part is aboslute steak for an actor from the RSC. I can just see him in it, too. The first role I saw him perform that was memorable for me was the part of Henry Grey, the 3rd Marqess of Dorset, who was Lady Jane Grey's father, in the film Lady Jane. It was not as complex a role as Denethor, but there was some of the same awful unhappiness in that family, and I can easily imagine him hectoring Faramir nearly to the grave. He has those hawk eyes that can pin you down like a mouse.

lbilover got the idea to have a number of fans read sections of "A Conspiracy Unmasked" from FOTR. This is my contribution. I hope you enjoy it. :)
