In 2013, Richard Armitage came to Popcorn Taxi - and brought his army with him! 700 cheering members of the Armitage Army came to the Cremorne Orpheum to hear Thorin Oakenshield discuss his work, his career, and himself. A candid, light-hearted evening ensued and fans left genuinely thrilled, as they got to listen to (and speak to) the King of the Dwarves, before seeing a screening of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, in honour of the film's BD, DVD and Ultraviolet release.

If you were lucky enough to be there on the night, relive the experience now. We've also spliced in some fantastic Behind The Scenes footage from The Hobbit, which you may not (although probably might) have seen before.
If you couldn't make it, get ready to see what Richard Armitage is like when he lets his hair down. Of course Richard spoke about The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, but he also hinted at what was to come in The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug - in particular leaving the audience with the mental image of Benedict Cumberbatch working in a MoCap suit as Smaug - and most poignantly, a very personal thought about the very deepest part of Thorin Oakenshield's character.
