I Peter Jackson doing the Hobbit?

Like Exa said, no one's sure yet. He's doing King Kong and he's thinking about doing The Hobbit after that....If he does, I do hope he keeps both Ians as Gandalf and Bilbo. It wouldn't be the same without them.

yes ,but ian who plays bilbo is too old. bilbos young in the hobbit!!!!!!!!!1

Yes, I also think Bilbo is too old;

Though comparing him to Frodo is not so easy as Frodo didnt age since he was 33 because he had the ring

Yet he also didnt age anymore the years after the ring was destroyed.

I've heard that the contract with New Line has been signed but that is mostly rumor.

I don't trust my source too much............he is a wacko kid who thinks he knows everything. So I don't know how real it all is. 🤪

SO?

What does it MATTER?

We can have a version where Bilbo went when he was a bit older.

It makes no difference to the story.
Sheesh, why are people so anal about these books?

I'm GLAD Jackson changed LOTR.
In almost all cases i think he rectified obvious weaknesses in the books.

No Tom Bombadil? GOOD that section is simply appalling.
No Scouring of the Shire? GOOD how tredious would that have been.
Arwen gets more to do? GOOD at least then she's not a completely passive and vapid character as in the books
Faramir doesn't renounce the ring immediately? GOOD, at least he doesn't completely dispell any aura of menace about the power of the ring as in the book.

They are not perfect books.
They are a series of interesting and in some instances brilliant books, but nobody can maintain a 1200 page book without slipping up and writing poor sections, and that INCLUDES Tolkien.

So maybe, just maybe changes can be made to them?

it would be cool coz theres this mad battle scene at the end and we all know how godd pj can make battle scenes, although because of the size of it in the bookl compared to rotk it may be an anticlimax coz the battle in rotk was so big and so good, he would have to make it realli special in some way coz thre battles in the 3 movies got better and better and bigger and bigger, it would be like small.

he should take out a slice of ythe end of the silmarillion where theres this massive battle at the end coz thats huge and he could ,make that cooler than rotk battle but yeah

You have yet to realize a little make goes a long way. 😉

I agree with glaurung.

Some of the changes were very good and they added to the story tremendously ✅
