The mag, which dishes on the happenings at the film's New Zealand set, also scored an interview with director Peter Jackson, who said the dwarves in the film "don't know what to make of Gandalf, they think Bilbo is a wuss, and Elrond a prissy Headmaster type".
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is scheduled for release December 14, 2012.
