The Hobbiton set will be in use starting February 14th, apparently for filming with hobbits other than the principals. After all the delays, it is great to see this thing get started. It is still going to be two movies, in 3-D a la Avastar.

Well its about time. Cant wait to see this. Was watching a documentary on Blade Runner and Ridley Scott going on about financial troubles that plagued the set..echoing what Peter is going through no doubt.

“Confirmed cast include...Richard Armitage...”

So...no Christopher Lee?

The story went that he said that was too old to travel to NZ for the shoot, but I’m not sure what the final resolution was. They should do whatever is necessary for him to appear, including filming some scenes in London if necessary; if they had to recast Saruman, it would hurt the films.

Any word on Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time if they're doing a movie or mini-series?
