Hobbit fans vying for New Zealand trip

Diehard Hobbit fans from around the world will have a chance to enjoy a "Middle-Earth" journey to New Zealand, if they can outshine others in the Hobbit Fan Fellowship Contest. The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies will be released on Dec 17. Tourism New Zealand, Air New Zealand, New Line Cinema, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures and Warner Bros Pictures, recently unveiled the contest at San Diego Comic-Con International, an entertainment and comics convention. The competition will choose 75 lucky winners who can each take a friend to New Zealand. They will not only spend one week at the country's well-know filming locations for the movie series and scenic spots, but they will also have the ultimate experience for every Hobbit fan: to watch the final movie with the director Peter Jackson.
