underdog:
they should of make a movie on the hobbit(i know there a cartoon one) because in "lord of the rings" they made Bilbo Baggin look like a wuss. in the hobbit he the hero!.....

peace

MacGuffin:
What's next for Peter Jackson? He says he has six or seven ideas for movies, "all of them small." But he denies rumours that he has refused to direct The Hobbit, the first Tolkien Middle-earth book, which served as a prologue to The Lord of the Rings.

"Part of me would love to have somebody else make The Hobbit, so I could watch it as an audience member," Jackson says. "On the other hand, it would feel odd.

"Nobody has asked me to do it, but if they did, I would give it serious consideration."

Raikus:
I thought that PJ originally approached studios about doing "The Hobbit," and that that idea eventually led to the Lord of the Rings Trilogy.

Am I imagining things or did someone else hear that too?

And it would make sense that New Line Cinema would own the rights to "The Hobbit" since they gobbled up all the rights to the LOTR trilogy.

That's the point! Bilbo was not an adventurer, he was along for the ride and BECAME a hero through his actions. And Bilbo was frightened being lost and alone and in the darkness of gollum's cave, that was very accurate to the book except without the meeting between the two with the battle of riddles.

sphinx:
jackson will have a hard time recovering from lord of the rings.  he'll never work on some as big on his career (it's probably drained him a lot by now), so i'm really curious to see what'll he'll do next and if it works.  hopefully he won't pull a james cameron and just disappear from the directing scene after an enormous hit
