Peter Jackson may direct The Hobbit

UGH! I feel dirty just being in here. For those of you that never stray into the Killer Movies website for REAL news - they posted this snippet yesterday:

---

Peter Jackson may actually direct The Hobbit, the prequel to the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

Jackson has on many occasions expressed his interest in directing the sequel but due to legal issues of the rights to the J.R.R Tolkien being held by MGM and not New Line -- who made the recent trilogy.

Recently Variety reported that Time Warner who owns New Line is going to purchase MGM and so will share the rights with New Line, which in turn will help get the production get started on The Hobbit.

So - Good news for those illiterate swooning scum who squealed with glee over the shitty frickin mess he made of the LOTR - you can expect more of the same messy reliance on overpowering visuals and pointless changing of the characters and plot.

And let me say just one more time - when you cuddle down at night and gaze up longingly at your walls strewn with posters of the LOTR cast, you don't have the slightest clue what the Rings trilogy is.

And for those of you who read the books AFTER you saw the movies - and STILL like the films and make apologies for them, shame on you for the traitorous fools you are.

*wonders how many "Hobbit movie" threads there are?*
Next time, search for an old thread instead of manking a new one.

This is the first piece of HARD news about the rights to the hobbit movie being untangled: I would have thought it would be of interest to LOTR movie fans.

However have it locked and fill your forum with "Orlando is hotter than Elijah" see if I care.

😐 How delightful

😐 Welcome to the forum and thank you for your news, and we really value your opinion of us 😐

😂 @ Tassie

You need anger management sessions or something, Mr Zero...😕 Thank's for informing us about The Hobbit, but everyone's known about that for a while now....

And just for your information: Not everyone likes Orlando and Elijah....😕 I, for example, can't stand either of them....

he's sensitive about treatment of criminals 😂 wonder why!

And no - everyone's not known about this for a while now, they only broke the legal news on Monday.

Sheesh. You people are so HOSTILE.

I had forgotten about that - and yet you are still thinking about it?

You have no idea how happy that makes me...

Although you seem the one that constantly needs to push and prod.

I for one am not a fangirl...I for one do read the news...I for one know that this rumor has been floating around for sometime...and if you had taken the time to read back in previous threads...you would see that this rumor has been brought up, but put on the back burner until something solid takes place.

So I award you by bringing up yet once again something not tangable...and get the rumor mill working.

And if you are not such a Fan of the movies of LOTR...why would you even come to this Forum anyway ???

So what if she likes the LotR cast? 😑 I do, too, we're just not crazy over them.

We're not trying to be rude, but just re-read your first post-- doesn't it seem the least bit hostile to you? 😐

Thanks for sticking up for me, Tassie 😛

She's right. Just cause I happen to like the LOTR cast doesn't mean I'm in love with them or something 😕 I just like LOTR and I think the cast did a great job.....

Listen to AD. He knows all 😛 And you best not argue with him, Mr Zero 😂 You'll get your a** kicked.

Oh for the love of all thats holy: No wonder you like the movies because you sure as hell can't read...

"Variety reported that Time Warner who owns New Line is going to purchase MGM and so will share the rights with New Line."

Tangible enough for you?

The thing that was holding up any action on the Hobbit was the rights being held by MGM, if MGM is being bought by Warner - who also own New Line - Jackson will be able to make the movie if he so wishes, which everyone seems to think he will.

Personally, i'd rather he made Bad Taste II - but thats just me.

And I came in here because I like to help out the less fortunate once in a while so I can feel good about myself.

I warned you not to mess with AD 🙄 But did you listen? Nooooooooo.

I came into a forum to share some breaking news with my good buddies at the KMC because I'm a nice helpful chap...

And I happened to say to anyone who might be reading that anyone who likes the movies and considers themselves a FAN of the LOTR is - in my view- deluded... because Mr Jackson made a bloody mess of the story.

Not my fault if you people are taking it personal - i was being general....

Actually I much prefer the books to the movies...but alas you wouldn't know that about me since you don't take the time to read anything...

Any Movie made from a Book cannot be word for word, and if that is what you were looking for...then I say you are a sorry soul and shouldn't expect a perfect world ! I tend to not like movies based on books, for the directors seem to change very important details to their own likings. I think PJ did an alright job...and for those that haven't read the books...he has opened a new world to them. The world of Tolkien.

But you don't see it that way...you just wanted to come in here...think you are all high and mighty by telling us something we already knew and talk down to the fans of the actors of the Trilogy.

I believe you said "UGH! I feel dirty just being in here." Then be gone and return from whatever rock it was that was kicked over !!!

a long delayed YAWN!

You're boring everyone with news everyone knows about...and insulting people on this forum while doing it, you're not welcome here....be gone!

Thorondor: Amen ✅

First thing I did was do a search in this forum before starting this thread and was surprised to see no-one had mentioned this news:

I must have missed it - point me to the post or thread where you guys were talking about it and i will humble myself to the point of shame.

(and no - I dont expect any film of a book to be perfect, but jacko changed the nature and personality of some of the characters in the films - how as a fan of the books you can support what he did to Faramir is beyond me?)

There's one 😕

LOL clamped...even if there weren't any you were still being a complete @ss to everyone here and to be honest nobody is going to listen to you now because you insulted them and their friends.
