Look, sir, Dwarves. THE HOBBIT Poster Makes Its Debut

There's something mildly satisfying about seeing a heap of dwarves on a poster. It reminds me of that scene in E.T. where the titular character hides in a giant pile of stuffed animals.

At any rate, the poster should certainly be eye catching when walking through your local theatre lobby, and will remind audiences well prepared for another dark entry to the tale of Middle Earth that there's a great deal of silliness and broad comedy we're to expect from these two, erm, three entries.
