Family: Dwarves of The Hobbit

This Halloween post from The Weisse Guys blog may be the single most epic cosplay post I have ever seen.  The Weisse family got together with the Burch Jerks and Speier Kids to stage a massive group cosplay of the entire cast of The Hobbit, including the hobbit, the dwarves, the elves, and, yes, even a tiny Smaug. It is quite evident from the photos that a lot of effort and a lot of love went into the costumes, and it looks like a good time was had by all.  Not only am I completely jealous, but I'm also now a lifetime subscriber to The Weisse Guys blog.  Please click through to see all the photos on their blog, they deserve the traffic.

Video: Lord of the Rings In Real Life



As a part of Improv Everywhere‘s silly Movies In Real Life series, the New York City based improv art group brought Lord of the Rings to Central Park’s iconic Bow Bridge. Well, just Gandolf saying his famous line, “You shall not pass,” but New Yorkers seemed to enjoy the gag none the less.
"For our latest mission we recreated the famous "You shall not pass!" scene from The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, placing Gandalf the Grey on Central Park's iconic Bow Bridge. Rather than facing off against a Balrog as he did on the Bridge of Khazad-dûm, this time Gandalf faced an even more daunting foe, Central Park tourists. The tourists proved to be too powerful for Gandalf, as nearly every one was able to successfully pass."

Nazgul (from The Lord of the Rings) by Piper (TheSpookLock)

Great.  Now I want a frickin horse. Thanks for that.
"So my plan for halloween is to dress up as a Nazgul with my black horse and go trick or treating but instead of saying “trick or treat” i’ll either scream or hiss “Bagginssssssssss, Shhhhhhhire” and then ransack their villages in my search for the One Ring."

Baby Frodo (from The Lord of The Rings) by Alexander

"My son Alexander was a hobbit for his second Halloween. I put this costume together over a few months. The clothing items all came from thrift shops or baby consignment stores (corduroy pant, white button-down shirt, and a tan vest). The cape was sewn by my mother from emerald green felt material ($2 at Goodwill). The brooch had to be just right so we ordered one on Amazon.com to match the ones they wear in the Lord of the Rings Films ($6). His feet are even hairy. I used fun-fur yarn material to wrap his brown/tan flip flops and create his furry little feet ($5 @ Joann's). Overall, the entire costume cost less than $25 and our little Hobbit looked totally epic."

Pets: Pugs of Middle Earth

The Pugs of Middle-Earth
One does not simply walk into Mordor…our leashes don&#8217;t go that far.

I can't believe this, but Pugs dressed as Lord of the Rings is an actual thing. I'm not talking about a single photo set on Tumblr. There's a whole community devoted to this past time, and the costumes can be extremely elaborate.  It's enough to make me want to go out and get a Pug.
