Most hobbits with the spirit of daring semi-nomadic original tribes, the Fallohides, Harfoots, Stoors, etc, were eventually whittled down and only the overly cautious, uncurious-about-outside hobbits remained. They became mostly ignorant of the world outside the Shire, BUT retained the naive curiosity. That adds up to a near complete lack of savvy.
Add an over developed sense of hedonistic gastronomy, and mindless boredom-based curiosity.
You are doomed along them.

Adventurous hobbits, who ventured further than Bree, to E,were most often beset by brigands.
Even MORE adventurous hobbits, who followed the Brandywine N, and ended up around Evendin NEVER CAME BACK. The area is the remainders of Arnor, toppled by the Witch King himself. It's filled with nasty, ghastly, eerie, ghostly things that hate the living. Only a party of high-level characters would dare.
So, only the dull, boring hobbits survived to leave offspring.

200miles-ish W, the sea, Grey Havens,gulf of Lhun, impassable!!, given Hobbits are NOT particularly sea-faring (lol)
120ish miles to the N, along the Baranduin/Brandywine river, the walls of Evendin Hills. Around that E bend of their end, the Valley of Evendin,and Lake Evendin. And, nearby, the ruins of Annúminas... they are mostly empty (you WISH), except for the hoarse whistleof breeze and the mists from the lake....and occasional shrieks of wraiths, etc.

On request (not posted but DM-ed)
Why you should stay away from Hobbits, if you want to survive wandering around Middle Earth.
Hobbits were semi-nomadic tribes, survivors of small humanoid, originally from Central areas of the main continent or Arda. They were granted land, S of Arnor, circa 1600TA, right before Arnor was broken in three parts.
Shire is a green area with benign weather. Hobbiton is about, oh, 100-ish miles from Bree, to the East,

In fairness, there are two general attitudes towards hobbits, in the whole of Eä:
1- you ignore them
2- you despise them to any applicable degreeA hobbit in your group is *GUARANTEED* to get you in trouble, constantly pester you for attention and/or food, and unduly call attention at the worst possible moments, as well as wreak havoc out of sheer boredom and curiosity

Aurora about AI:
"It reminds me of lord of the rings. Yes, this ring will give you power. All the knowledge in the world. Unless you use it right. No one is gonna use it right. So it feels like, we are battling Sauron. That's how I feel. I give helpless Hobbit.
🤚 We will win, against the evil forces" -

It’s been way too long since I finished reading a book but today I finished reading The Hobbit for the first time and it was great. I read a nice illustrated (by Alan Lee) hardcover version of it and I have The Lord of the Rings trilogy before me still. But first I will read the new Magic: The Gathering novel that is coming out shortly and that I have preordered. I’m very excited for it.

Que lindeza essa animação do O Hobbit da década de 1967. Tem só 12 minutos e as ilustrações são muito fofas.
Obs: não espere fidelidade ao livro em 12 minutos de animação.

It's really interesting to see what people think makes a story true to its origin. Both in the history video and in the comments of the movie, most people seem to think it's only the dwarves and lack of a Princess and Golem's name that make The Hobbit story what it is. They are unironically saying this version is *nothing* alike the original book.
So I was quite surprised at how very closely this movie captured so many moments of essence that I think are far more important to The Hobbit, in terms of plot, characterization, character arc, obstacles to overcome, even dialog. The spirit of the scenes is the same, too, boiled down tidily.
My favorite example is how Gandalf & Crew showing up to foist Bilbo away in a big rush feels *exactly* like Rankin-Bass and the original text. (I was singing "That's what Bilbo Baggins hates!" as it played.) Yet they cover this scene in less than a minute.
You'd be hard pressed to find two original folk versions of Rumplestiltskin this closely aligned at many points of the film.
Maybe being trained in plot design and motifs gives me this eye for what makes a story what it is? Yes, this movie is a knockoff. But names and labels and the existence of side characters is only incidental to the heart of a story. I really hope normal people are more insightful than that.

Looking for the first film adaptation of The Hobbit, except it's psychedelic, reads like fan fiction written by a fourth grader, was made in just a month, is only 12 minutes long and yet is somehow faithful to the core energy and story beats, was used to hustle Tolkien out of $100,000, and was mostly unseen lost media until the 2010?
Look no further. The Hobbit (1967).
And the story behind this weird lil gem:

Vous savez, parce que les terriers de Hobbits sont de plain pied ! Du coup les Hobbits s'occupent des rez-de-chaussée ! Hihihi ! C'est rigolo, non ? C'est de l'humour des terres du Milieu. Je me dédouane, oui, même si je sais que vous n'allez pas me croire.

J'aime tellement le décalage entre la musique festive des hobbits et l'ambiance générale de la salle, plutôt inspirée du Mordor. Il en faut peu pour m'amuser je crois 🤭 En tous cas, n'hésitez pas à décorer vos maisons sur LotRO !

Des fois, des choses un peu méchantes m'échappent et j'en suis désolée 😔 pardon à tous les uruks, à leurs familles, à leurs amis. La prochaine fois, je les tuerai en toute gentillesse ou, du moins, en toute neutralité.

3/3: Several Lord of the Rings quotes have popped into my mind the past few weeks, so I decided to create art collages using these quotes. Here’s my art with a third one of the quotes.

Happy Hobbit Day (Sept. 22)! One of the best ever trips I’ve taken was a 24-day trip to beautiful New Zealand in 2019. Here’s my Visual Trip Journal from the day we visited Hobbiton!

It was my birthday the other day. Main present from my husband was a Sylvester McCoy as Radagast sculpt from Weta in New Zealand. I love how full of character it is! I did not enjoy the Hobbit trilogy of movies, though loved Lord of the Rings. But his performance and character were a rare highlight. #birthday #sculpture #figurine #Tolkien #LordOfTheRings #LOTR #TheHobbit #Hobbit #Filmstodon #OorWullie #SylvesterMcCoy #WetaFx #Weta #PeterJackson #Art #Wizards #Fantasy #Films #Movies #DoctorWho

Continuing my #Tolkien #ReRead with #LostTales vol. 1.
The Gnomes have crossed the ice, & the sun & moon ships are finally sailing the heavens.
Eriol's inexplicable desire for mythic exposition continues unabated.

An offset to the end-of-term, #grading blues was finishing my #HobbitReRead over the weekend. Delightful as always.
The true unsung hero, of course, was the thrush.
Now I'm finishing my #UnfinishedTales #ReRead. I'd totally forgotten that the Blue Wizards, who were lost in Rhûn, had names in Valinor.
If only we had their stories.
