The Hobbit parody titled ‘An Unexpected Parody’ by The Hillywood Show is exactly what it is promoted as.
Everything looks on the up and up when the clip begins, until Bilbo Baggins opens his front door to Gandalf and a group of dwarves who immediately burst into the Lil John and LMFAO song ‘Shots.’ The dwarves get rowdy in Baggins’ home and all sing along with the infectious 2009 party hit. As they yell the lyrics one by one, it’s hard not to laugh at the expressions on their faces.
This Hobbit parody is guaranteed to brighten your day and coincides with the release of The Hobbit on December 14th in US theatres. This is a creative piece of viral marketing and is sure to attract people to the Hobbit movies who otherwise wouldn't be interested purely due to the novelty comedy aspect of this video.
