Oh, I'm not going to...I don't intend to stop. I'm just going to think about how I am wording my posts and whether or not I'm going to piss anybody off from now on. I feel like that's what I'm being asked to do. I'll still voice my opinions, just more maturely. I can completely change in 2 seconds, I'm always doing that. I realize that I was wrong. I shouldn't have bashed LOTR again.

See, now look what I've done. I've ruined yet another thread by sending it completely off track. I am very sorry about that. Well, at least I learned something this time, right? Keep talking about the Hobbit now, sorry for getting you guys off topic, seriously.

lord of the rings sucks. I'll be tired of saying that when the movies are dead and buried within the realm of talk here. Arguments of being anti commercial movies are silly and unfounded. So another year hits and another Lord of the Rings comes, may the bashing continue.

I'll probably bash it outside of this place, sure...but I doubt I'll be bashing it anymore around here. If it's only going to piss people off then what's the point?

Anyway, I know I'm probably fucking going to break my vow already and dig a cyber grave for myself here but I gotta say this one last thing...

Regular Karate...saying that I "didn't want to be involved with the mainstream" or whatever just because I don't like LOTR was really childish man...I have to say. Don't jump to conclusions like that. Now, I know what you're thinking...who am I to call you childish? And your right...but I just wanted to point it out and defend my taste in movies, which I know more about than you because, of course, I know what I like. I like a lot of mainstream films just as much as I like a lot of independent films....you were wrong. Just wanted to point that out, don't get mad.

freedom of (not words of conspiracy, libel, slander, or dissing one's mama) speech! Also, with that in mind, Bons ass is mine in the playground after school. Petty complaining.

'Hobbitt,' 'Rings' Prequel, in the Works

NEW YORK - Peter Jackson won't be returning to the Shire any time soon. The Oscar-winning director is planning to film "The Hobbit," the prequel to "The Lord of the Rings," trilogy by J.R.R. Tolkien, but two studios must first fight over legal rights to the film.

Jackson said New Line Cinema has the rights to make the movie, but MGM has the rights to distribute it.

"I guess MGM's lawyers and New Line's lawyers are going to have a huge amount of fun over the next few years trying to work it all out," he told reporters recently in Los Angeles, according to AP Radio. "I'm obviously busy for a couple of years on 'King Kong' so those lawyers can just go at it for a long time."

"The Hobbit" tells the story of Bilbo Baggins, who found the ring and eventually passes it on to his nephew, Frodo Baggins. Frodo's journey to Mount Doom to destroy the ring is the basis for the "Rings" books and films.

Jackson said if he were going to direct the movie, he'd want it to feel like the rest of the trilogy. On Sunday, Jackson won an Academy Award for best director shared the adapted-screenplay award with his two co-writers for the final "Rings" film, "The Return of the King."

"I'd want Ian McKellen to be back as Gandalf, I'd want it to feel like it was part of the same mythology that we've done with 'Lord of the Rings,'" Jackson said.

"The Return of the King" swept this year's Academy Awards, winning all 11 categories in which it was nominated.

Jackson is in the middle of remaking "King Kong," due out next year, starring Naomi Watts.
