I wont be seeing it. I hated LOTR. The books were good books, i will admit that, well writen ect. but they were also not a favorite of mine, and the movies were just lame.

til the chronicles of narnia was filmed in new zealand and supposed to be a awesome movie.

actually, they could do /many/ more movies if they decided to base them off the silmarillion (could do heaps from this, so many stories in it, covering thousands and thousands of years before the hobbit, talking about how middle earth was made and much more) and the other books available.

Estvir: I seem to recall Peter doesn't have the rights to The Silmarillion. I do believe that he is able to write new stories within the Middle Earth universe for film. However, if he were able to pull from The Silmarillion, "Of Beren and Lúthien" would be an epic tale that I'd love to see realized.

Before The Hobbit, I'd like to see fuller and more accurate versions for the LotR films (like, seeing Saruman in the third...). Who else isn't afraid of a 6 hours film?

Hopefully they do make the Hobbit into a movie! God when I saw the trilogy I was like holy s**t! this is f**king good! It was a wonderful experience that I have never seen in ANY movie. PLEASE make the Hobbit!
