Hobbit film news

Postby Esther » February 4th, 2008, 9:15 pm

Just came across . I'm sure Del Toro would be a great dirrector for the film, but I see no reason why it should be two films. I'm afraid that decision was made by some New Line producer with dollar signs in his eyes.

I had read that The Hobbit itself would be one movie, and a second movie would be about the 60 years between The Hobbit and FOTR (where they'd get the material for that, however, I don't really know).

One movie should be The Hobbit, and the other, .
