No ‘Hobbit’ at the 2013 San Diego Comic-Con

Sorry, Hobbit fans…Peter Jackson says this year The Hobbit will not be represented at the San Diego Comic-Con. In his new production video, Jackson explains that while he realizes it will disappoint fans, he just doesn’t have the time to put together a sizzle reel, and neither himself nor any cast are available to make the trek to San Diego.

But in happier news, the first production blog of 2013 shows off some brand new behind-the-scenes footage from The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug.
