I’m a bit glad they are taking their time. There’s really no reason to rush it, since Jackson did so well on LOTR and the Hobbit is somewhat connected, but can be outside it as well.
I’d like to see Jackson and Del Toro work together on it, I think they’d make a fantastic prequel.

See, you don't have to agree with the theories espoused in a film in order to enjoy it.Speak for yourself. I don't enjoy being patronized by Hollywood liberals. I won't support their BS productions.

Should be very good news, even if it takes a few more years. I’ll be surprised if it’s out by 2011.

"Enjoy those boogers, spaz-boy."LOL!
What an awesome tagline that would make.

No Way!

I like your thinking...One of my favorite flicks!!

Too bad Jackson didn't just go ahead and do all four -- in order, with consistent settings and quality.
I re-read the books -- starting with The Hobbit -- each year (during the heat of the day -- in my hammock) when we camp out. Many of Jackson's scenes (example: the Argonath) will forever be my mental images of the scenes as I read...

You have obviously never watched MST3K.
Day After Tommorow was bad, but some MST3K movies are so bad, without the MST3K treatment, they make your hair hurt.

A little known fact is that Dame Kathleen Harrison, Scrooge’s housekeeper, Mrs. Dilber, had a royal ball with that film. Here is a great Shakespearean actress doing her “Cockney” best in her “Merry Christmas Mr. Scrooge!” while murdering the English language.
My heart glows when I watch that movie. The acting was great!

How old are you son? Seven, eight years old? That's the kind of post I would expect from a kid or maybe a Hollyweird person.

” Here is a great Shakespearean actress doing her Cockney best in her Merry Christmas Mr. Scrooge! “
And if my memory serves me right adding..”in keeping with the situation !”...or something to that affect.
To: kempo
I understand how you might be afraid to see movies with propaganda in them.
Very weak minds might actually be convinced that the propaganda is truth.
You should stick to the Discovery Channel.
