Air New Zealand has made a fun video each year for the Hobbit film releases.

The first was a safety video:
An Unexpected Briefing wrote:Air New Zealand partnered with WETA Workshop on a brand new Hobbit inspired Safety Video. It features cameo appearances including Sir Peter Jackson.


Then a promotional one:
Just another day in Middle-earth wrote:Here in Middle-earth, everyday tasks can reveal out of this world surprises and before you know it everything can turn a bit Hobbit-shaped.


And they just released the final one, a grander safety video:
The Most Epic Safety Video Ever Made wrote:As the official airline of Middle-earth, Air New Zealand has gone all out to celebrate the third and final film in The Hobbit Trilogy - The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies. Starring Elijah Wood and Sir Peter Jackson; we're thrilled to unveil The Most Epic Safety Video Ever Made.

Special cameos by Sylvester McCoy, Dean O’Gorman and Weta Workshop co-founder Sir Richard Taylor. Directed by Taika Waititi. Enjoy!

I love how creative they are! :lol: Very fun. I had seen the first 2 previously and didn't rewatch (though I might later) but I just watched the new one and it is a lot of fun. This would be an improvement over any of the safety videos that I've seen when flying!

These were fun, I am surprised that I have never heard about them until today.
