		<description>Don&#039;t believe in a director who hasn&#039;t read Lord of the Rings - especially not for the second movie.
Also, suggestion: John Rys Davies for Beorn?

		<description>Even though it&#039;s great news that the Hobbit is becoming a live-action film (the earlier comment that it hadn&#039;t been made into film before is incorrect, in fact the cartoon version of the Hobbit WAS a steaming pile of crap), i can&#039;t help but feel slightly disappointed that the film isn&#039;t being made for the right reasons. What made Lord of the Rings films so good was because the motive behind them was to &quot;make a good tribute to the book&quot;. Peter rejected offers from studios because of his passion to see LOTR made decently.
I feel that with all this attitude and bitterness, how can the film version of Hobbit live up to our expectations as laid down by professor Tolkein all those years ago in his fabulous book.
Perhaps it wouldnt be an entirely bad thing to see a fresh face direct with his/her own passion and vision, or an entirely different production team. It would give a chance for the Hobbit film to stand on its own without the expectations, stigma and perhaps &quot;franchise&quot; as LOTR.

		<description>Good news. The Hobbit is to be made as a film. I hope that the makers will be able to capture the wonder tha I felt when I first read the book. I read LOTR first. The Hobbit had much more the feel of a childrens book to it. Good luck!

		<description>Um, the man who botched the Rings books beyond bloody compare is back to produce the last pure work of Tolkien&#039;s that hasn&#039;t been turned in a mindless, pile of steaming crapp for the masses?
*sigh*  Heavenly hosts...God have mercy on Peter Jackson, cuz only a loving God could.

		<description>Of course Hollywood types are all looking at the money.  That&#039;s what they do: it&#039;s their job.  But I believe you can still get excellent movies out of money-grubbers.

		<description>It&#039;s a &quot;property,&quot; it&#039;s a &quot;franchise.&quot; Not much about making it a good movie. Studio heads really are just Wall Streeters looking for glamour, aren&#039;t they.
