Here's my tribute to Peter Jackson's The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.
Well, not exactly a tribute but asked how many wizards there are, Gandalf says there are five, naming himself, Saruman the White, and Radagast the Brown, then saying he can't remember the names of the other two. Their names, Alatar and Pallando, appear in the book Unfinished Tales, but the filmmakers don't have rights to use material from that book. x)) Just so happy that PJ took the opportunity to acknowledge that on screen. :')

wow :love: beautifully done, and I actually didn't make that connection when I saw the movie. I do remember how he says that he doesn't know the names of the other two, but I never thought why :P

I totally agree! I love your depiction of them here...they are even less seen than Radagast...tho since the hobbit he's become much more well known...I have always liked the mysterious pair Alatar and Pallando, the blue wizards who disappeared into the east. If you swing over to my gallery I have a pic of the 5 Istari wizards arriving by ship in middle earth if u wanna check it out...it's an older price of my artwork tho, and I would love to do a new version.

I think PJ should had went ahead and used the names, it's petty that simple naming refrences are denied because of no rights to use material from the book. Yet there is fan art and fanfiction dedicated to the stuff. Yes I know fan art and fanfiction exist because they don't cash in on the franchise but still the names Alatar and Pallando aren't going to make any money by their names alone (unless they were merchandises of them).

Who knows maybe they can get the rights by the next few films.

I do buy gandalf not remembering he even forgot the password for the door to moria!

Like the drawing, it has a atopsphere of compelling mystery and magic.

Well that depends, later writings Tolkien may have decided to have them come an entire age sooner and possibly arrived with the re-embodied Glorfindel (whose body would have been destroyed during the destruction of Gondolin). Here they are named Morinehtar ("Darkness-slayer") and Rómestámo ("East-helper") and do not turn to dark cults, but aid significantly in diminishing Sauron's forces.

I've still got half Unfinished tales to read, and while I've picked those I wanted to read so far, I've been wanting to leave the part on the Istari for the end, so that I must make me finish the book and not only read what I want to know the most xD

The faces of your wizards will be there when I read that part :3
