    As long as Andy Serkis plays Gollum, I'll watch it. Even if it was directed by...Michael Bay! [face_skull]

    Yup, all this latest news is doing is making New Line move faster to get the movie made without Jackson.

    I hope they put in a female character when they start the script, the entire cast is male.

    And for fangirl, I have a sneaking suspicion that legolas could be put into this film VERY easily. (Bilbo after all talks to Legolas' dad IIRC)

    He is making it. He's not making it which is it here?

    If he is good for him. If he's not good for him. Really I don't see The Hobbit being better then LOTR. Sure it's a great book. But to me I just don't think it would make a good movie.

    Well, I don't know if its Legolas' father, but Legolas is from Mirkwood, so yes an Orlando Bloom cameo would be very easy to arrange.

    Hobbit is definitely a lot funnier than LOTR. Especially Gandalf's first line after Bilbo says "Good morning"

    "What do you mean?" he said. "Do you wish me a good morning,or mean that it is a good morning whether I want it or not; or that you feel good this morning; or that it is a morning to be good on?"

    Sam and Frodo were doing NOTHING before the LOTR. They were content little Hobbits, leading quiet Hobbit lives.


    More likely it would deal with Bilbo, Gandalf, Gollum, and Aragorn.


    I'm excited about getting the Hobbit as a movie. It was always the much more interesting book to me.

    Wolfgang Peterson should direct The Hobbit and call it The Neverending Hobbit.

    The Hobbits are too boxy...Michael Bay can make them look more realistic in the face of the fanboy firestorm.

    Especially since he won't really have all that much to do once the last Pirates movie is out. He could make a cameo in the Hobbit, wash Andy Serkis' car, maybe take out the garbage, or walk Johhny Depp's dogs...

    Yeah... he seriously needs to be in some good movies. Kingdom of Heaven was the only really good one, and even the critics hated that. His career was crap, went up with LOTR, then went straight back down.

    You could apply that logic to practically all the actors from LOTR, with the exception of Ian McKellen who is a perpetually employed actor.

    Edit: Oh yeah and the scruffy Hobbit on Lost.

    Elijah Wood has made some fantastic movies since.

    Er... Viggo Mortensen... Hidalgo ... [face_sick]

    Liv Tyler never really does much.

    Christopher Lee is about ready to keel over.

    Sean Astin, can't think of anything he's done since...

    Billy Boyd...nope...

    Cate Blanchett has done some stuff.

    This is horrible news. Jackson slaughtered the books in the LotR series, and now he's going to screw up another one. How can LotR fans actually want this guy to direct the movies? He did a horrible job. The movies were good, but they pretty much re-wrote the books!
