Jackson wanted to make The Hobbit and LoTR like that, but *REALLY* wanted to make LoTR. He didn't want to chance making The Hobbit, it failing and not getting a chance to make LoTR.

I've no doubt they will make The Hobbit, especially after the success of the LotR series. Another way for them to milk the cash cow for more deniro.

he also REALLY wants to make another King Kong remake. Which I wouldn't mind. Just so long as it's better than the recent Godzilla movie.

Hell I haven't even READ The Hobbit to know what goes on with it and *I* noticed that. Just from what I could tell from what I've seen of the LOTR movies and the few chapters of Fellowship that I've read, isn't The Hobbit supposed to be about Bilbo? Frodo wasn't there.

Now, I could imagine Elijah Wood having a part as part of an END sequence, but that wouldn't merit being one of the two lead actors named in the promo credits.

I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl, we ate lobster, drank piña coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. That was a pretty good day. Why couldn't I get that day over, and over?

They billed Sean connery as a starring role in Time bandits, even though he only had a cameo.

If you go to the root page of that URL and check out the guy's gallery, he does a lot of concept art for producers for LOTS of movies, just to get their opinions.

You'll see many movies that have already come out and quite a few that are known to be in the works.

The idea of a concept piece is to put together something for them to look at and say "Yeah, we like this. Here's money, go make a real one for us. Thanks!"

Well, he auditioned for the role, but Peter Jackson thought he was dragon his feet, and his performance wasn't up to scale.

My school is doing "The Hobbit" as the spring play...Thorin is 6'4", Gollum is a woman , and The Elven King is a queen played by my girlfriend to make more parts for women...so now we gotta figure out how to make a dragon, and use figuring wax for elf ears.

the correct term is "boinked" you BOINKED an Elven Queen (not to be confused with an Elvis Drag Queen). Bonk is what sound it makes when you crack someone over the head with something.

Actually, here in Australia we say "bonk" for sex... and "boink" for someone throwing something (usually a stone) and landing it on your head...
