Hobbit one step closer?
Look. We all know this whole thing sucks. If there's a peerson out there who DOESN'T want PJ back in the saddle to make The Hobbit, then I want to meet him - I've got a nice shiny boot to put up his ass before I break my foot off in it. Pj's version (or two parter =O!!!) would kick ass.
Then why isn't it happening? EW has an incredible story putting together all the pieces for those of you who haven't been following all that closely.
But the long and the short of it is this: New Line screwed PJ out of MILLIONS of dollars, but won't open the books for accounting on the matter until PJ signs on the dotted line for The Hobbit. PJ told them to go #$*% themselves with a rusty beer can. Thus...no Hobbit.
But read the story. they don't mention anything about a Beer can, but it's entertaining none the less.

I was there for all three films, even watched the darned trilogy in a marathon at the cinema.. talk about a sore arse and burning retinas.
I'll agree with the elves at Helm's Deep, that puzzled me a bit too, but i think Theóden was rather close to how i saw him, and Faramir wasn't that much of a pantsy... just too bad that some of his action couldn't make it to the film.
And i remember almost screaming in terror when first i heard that Peter Jackson was the director, i mean with movies in his closet like "Braindead" and "Meet the feebles"who although enjoyable, wasn't really what i sought in the LotR movies, i was very worried...
So, with that in mind, i was positively surprised when i saw the first, and i think that surprise followed through all three movies... they where just great :D

Having said that, I would like to point out that I do appreciate the tremendous task Jackson took on in bringing the stories to life.
He did manage to salvage my enjoyment of the trilogy with Return Of The King, for the most part.

Peter Jackson had me with Fellowship Of The Ring and completely lost me with The Two Towers.
All the monkeying around he did with everything just got on my nerves.
I'll never advocate a strict book-to-movie translation of anything, but turning Faramir in to such a little girl of a character, making Theoden such a dufus, and elves at Helm's Deep just ruined things for me completely.

It does indeed suck big time, on the one hand, i'd really like to see the Hobbit, but heck it'll be a completely different dream and movie without Peter!
Would you go see the Hobbit if Jackson wasn't involved?
Probably, providing that there's another director that could actually manage to pull it off... i know that many (myself included) would balk at the mere notion of another director, so why can't Shaye get his head out of his hobbit-hole and smell the roses?!
Get your act together New Line... Peter Jackson is the best thing that happened to you since... well since forever! You should be kissing his furry hobbit feet and begging for him to make this movie!
Gaaah! Frustrating!
