it is true, sir ian mcallen

i heard the actor of gandalf is the smae can any one tell me if this is true ????????

I do think it's a shame Peter Jackson did not get to direct this, but he's made his millions. Sam Raimi has made some wonderful movies.
Maybe, if the Hobbit is a success, the powers that be will turn to The Simillarion. Or maybe The Dragonriders of Pern (now I'm really dreaming!)

i luv lotr but i think if they my the hobbit it will just wreck it all!

I'm really looking forward to this movie but all I want to know is who's gonna play Bilbo??
he is the main character after all!

all i can say is,befor you make a comment,make sure you've read the book first!(in other words,know what you're talking about!)

a LOTR movie without peter jackson? thats too bad.

I'm in love with the book, and I think that even though they should have done this movie first...it's still going to be a wonderful movie.

I was upset at some of the changes too folks, but be realistic. JRR Tolkein would not let any of his books come to the screen when he was alive for a reason. It is not possible to do it by the book excatly, each book of LOTR would have to have been 5 or 6 hours each and no one is going to sit through that except us hard core fans. He refused the Beatles when they wanted to do it in 1967, so they did magical mystery tour instead (plan B). The Hobbit will be easier to bring to the screen and keep a lot of the story intact, but it still won't be easy. Next to the Bible they are the greatest books ever writen bar none.

I have a secret love for this book. In a world ful of greed and war it's the perfect time for it. No other movie will stand in it's way. A movie about more dwarfs is great.
