As a big fan of J.R.R. Tolkien books, i was also happy with the movies base on the books.
There is only soo much you can take from the books and put into a movie, and I think Peter Jackson did one hell of a job making these films. But we are hear to talk about what started all of these other books JRR Tolkien wrote, The Hobbitt. He wrote the book for his son, when Tolkien was fighting the germans in WWI. As a kid i love the hobbitt, got like 4 books of the hobbitt lol and all 3 books on LotR and other books base on lord of the rings. After watching the movies I said to my friends i hope they make the Hobbitt. Sam Raimi is the director http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0903624/ This movies has to be at less 3 1/2 hrs long.

i remember watching a scene from the making of lotr and the scene with gollum in the stream chasing a fish .jackson had them melt all the snow and ice ,with portable heaters , on and around the stream ,which took all day because this was the stream he pictured in reading the book .i just dont think another director can have this attention to detail.
the hobbit for me is extremely important.the first movie i saw was star wars which effected me to this day . the first novel i read (age 10) was the hobbit which led to lotr trilogy and has effected me to this day as well. many attempts at lotr have been made with horrible results i was relieved kinda ,when the lotr didnt suck . im hoping they dont rush it or tighten the wallet on the movie ,this movie is more important than lotr imo.sorry for the novel. -------------------- ![]() |
