On December the 12th I went to see The Hobbit at the cinema. And what a stunning film it is. Can't believe Middle Earth is really in New Zealand. Very proud and grateful to be living in such a beautiful country. In this video, Andy Serkis, an actor and director perhaps most well-known for his voice of Gollum in The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies, shares and reflects with Lonely Planet on his experiences of travelling and filming in New Zealand.
A collection of ramblings about the enchantment of travel, art, literature, cinema, music, history, and life.

100% Middle-Earth 100% Pure New Zealand
100% Middle-Earth 100% Pure New Zealand
'Hi everyone. The folks at Tourism New Zealand have launched a new promotional campaign with a distinct Hobbit flavour. It's called "100% Middle-earth" and it's tied to the release of our film in December. This is New Zealand inviting you all to come and visit, and if you haven't been before you'll have no more excuse after seeing this! Take a look at the video and listen carefully for a very familiar voice. See you here soon… we'll have a beer or two at the Green Dragon!' - Peter Jackson
Sometimes I still can't quite believe that this is really home.
