Title: Hope yet that Peter Jackson will do The Hobbit Post by: trekgeezer on October 08, 2007, 12:21:04 PM Seems New Line is softening their stance now that Jackson is starting to get the upper hand in his lawsuit with them.

No word as to who is to be the third director, and no word as to whether the films are to be animated or live action. Anyway, the first film in the series is not scheduled to be released to 2009.
Title: bad Hope yet that Peter Jackson will do The Hobbit Post by: Xenorama on October 13, 2007, 02:00:25 AM PJ's done his Tolkien, besides, who needs a 3.5 hour version of the Hobbit? he'd probably take out the fun songs and comedy, and add a useless love story.
there are other directors out there that could make a good version of the book. David Title: Re: Hope yet that Peter Jackson will do The Hobbit Post by: Rev. Powell on October 13, 2007, 04:12:18 PM I sort of agree with David. The Hobbit is a children's story, very different in tone from LOTR. I'd be willing to bet that PJ would make a good version, but he shouldn't expect to be handed the job just because he made LOTR.
Maybe if he doesn't get the job, he will grace us with a MEET THE FEEBLES type parody, complete with humping Hobbits. |
