This analysis has gleaned unique insight into audience understandings of the play of politics and power surrounding a highly localized but globally resonant production issue, one that has relevance for transnational film projects internationally, since the resolution of the New Zealand Hobbit labour dispute has implications for working conditions in other national contexts. The ways in which anticipatory audiences perceived and engaged with a cultural product whose material conditions of production were controversial provides illuminating, if disheartening, insight into the power of commodity desire to override considerations of the social and material conditions of transnational film production, while offering clues as to potential sites of resistance. - quote waikato.ac.nz/__data/assets/pdf_file/0017/226313/Michelle,-Hardy,-Davis,-Hight-2014.pdf
