We were enchanted with those books’
collection, The Hobbit. Before Elijah Wood became a Baggins for the Lord of the
Rings Trilogy, there was Bilbo of the The Shire village. because it was
published way back in 1937!
Humanely, this is not about the book
or the movie; maybe partly about the movie itself because this is all about the
horses, goats, pigs and chickens (all 27 of them, as reported). According to
Johnny Smythe, the owner/head wrangler of the 5-acre “New Zealand Universal
Studios” that was used for the movie Lord of the Rings/The Hobbits, quits his
job as the animal caretaker for the movie because of the so-called “Animal
Massacre”. Animal massacre you ask? The plot of the movie is mainly about
fantasy where supernatural, magic and nature exist. But the latter - that is
The Nature, for those who don’t know what latter means – have been deprived of
its continuous existence. Neglect of focused caring for the animals had caused
those animals to offer their lives for the sake of becoming their work a
blockbuster movie… NOT! As of this moment, as we relay this message to you,
thousands of Animal Rights advocates were protesting against this atrocious
film.
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey
– like any movies that don’t reveal its budget – is estimated to have a budget
from $150M to $Gazillion for each one of the ‘The Hobbit’ trilogy. But the good
news is that it will have its red-carpet premiere on November 28 in Wellington,
New Zealand; where the animals died. Red carpet’s color definitely defines the
color of those poor animals’ blood alright…
On the brighter side of limelight,
many critical and paranoiac movie enthusiasts are asking, February 2011 is the
date when those Wellington ranch wranglers did consciously and hatefully quit
their jobs because of their knowledge of that animal cruelty or disregard; then
why, oh doubtful why, did they just exposed those brutality on the media? Is it
a publicity stunt? Or is it because they want to ruin the premier showing of
that movie this coming November 28, and on the following month to be shown
worldwide in your favorite movie theatres? (Don’t forget your Hobbit popcorn
tumbler before you watch the The Hobbit movie; and also wear your The Shire
T-shirt…)
What we want to know is, will the
The Hobbit movie-goers donate money for those innocent farm animals; or do they
just want to enjoy a movie that will make them happy?
