I could see it if he seriously messed up Beorn.
I still can't wait to see the Battle of Five Armies. For this one, I hope PJ does make so that the majority of the movie contains the battle. Yes!

yeah... the battle of the five armies would be good to see... as well as mirkwood.... i always liked that place
if he does, i think he should use the cast that he used for the LotR movies... so he should bring back ian holm as bilbo etc. i hate it when films change their cast half way through... if it's for a triliogy or something... it just ruins it, even if the actors were rubbish in the first place!

It does seem questionable to have Ian Holm as Bilbo, but they'd put much more effort and research into it in The Hobbit, and remember, Bilbo was middle-aged, not a young hobbit, in The Hobbit, so, if done immediately after PJ finishes King Kong, it could be possible to cast him.
Oh, and they could have a great comic conclusion with Bilbo and Gandalf coming back to see Bilbo's stuff being sold off, especially his run-in with the S-B's.

None were there to see him, as he gazed westward, gleaming in silver and gold, and he knew not that in that hour he appeared as one of the Mighty of the West, and fit to be father of the kings of the Kings of Men beyond the Sea, as it was indeed his doom to be; but in the taking of those arms a change came upon Tuor son of Huor, and his heart grew great within him. And as he stepped down from the doors the swans did him reverence, and plucking each a great feather from their wings they proffered them to him, laying their long necks upon the stone before his feet; and he took the seven feathers and set them in the crest of his helm, and straightway the swans arose and flew north in the sunset, and Tuor saw them no more.' -Of Tuor and his Coming to Gondolin "Oh.

Well I've been trying to figure something out for the past couple of months. A guy that I sort of dated at the start of last year, went to a drama collage down in London and well we talked alot about LotR and The Hobbit. And he mentioned one day, when I had been talking about the rumours that I had heard about The Hobbit Movie, that he was going to an important audition very soon. Now he couldn't tell me what for. But he hinted at either Star Wars or The Hobbit. A while later he told me that soon he was leaving London for somewhere near Australia. Meaning that it still could be either Star Wars or The Hobbit !!!
Unfortunatly we lost contact and I have no idea where he is or what he's doing. But it could fit. I would imagine that if there was auditions being held for The Hobbit, they may be kept in secret considering the populatity of the recent LotR's movies. Just a thought to bear in mind.

lol, i know, i saw that; it was an april fools joke! i get the newsletter from TORN, and they had me going for about 30 seconds, until i read the next newsletter, where they revealed the joke
however, if you click on the link you posted, there's a campaign going to send petitions to New Line to let them know that we all want a Hobbit movie (well, most of us, anyhow ) you can start sending letters tomorrow (april 5), and i don't know about anyone else, but i'm going to put in my 2 cents

if he [PJ] does make the hobbit,
i plan on ambushing him somewhere, so that a) he keeps it to the book a bit better and b) he casts me as either the Goblin King, or the Voice of Smaug although i would be equally good as a dwarf as i am fairly short, and can do a very good scots accent, being part irish anyway |

The making of the film The Hobbit is one step closer. It may not be too long from now that it will begin production! I hope Peter Jackson and company set out to do the direction and production. I would hope to see Sir Ian McKellan return as Gandalf the Grey, Ian Holm as Young Bilbo, Hugo Weaving as Lord Elrond. I was also thinking that since Gimli's father sets out with the company of the Hobbit, perhaps Mr. John Rhys-Davies can(in different attire and makeup) portrey Gloin! I am pretty sure that at the Coronation of Aragorn in The Return of the King we see a breif image of Lord Thranduil of Mirkwood, perhaps the same man will play Thranduil in the Hobbit as well.(and perhaps we will get a cameo apperance of Legolas of the woodland realm!?) Finally I can't wait to see this film come out, the Balrog looked awsome in The Lord of the Rings, Smaug will look incredible no doubt!

oh yes! i would love to see that film! ian mckellan as gandalf of course, but i think that ian holm is too old to play bilbo, sad to say.
but PJ is producing 'king kong' isn't he? i don't think the film is out in cinemas before 2008-2010. but i rather wait some years instead of a film which really sucks.

Ian Holm may be too old for young Bilbo, but perhaps makeup and wardrobe could help that. If not who would be a good replacement? I think that someone similar to Billy Boyd. Boyd's Pippen I thought would look similar(not exactlly) to young Bilbo. Of course I don't think they should use Boyd. Also Peter Jacksons film King Kong is set to release in 2005. So Filming could begin as soon as late '05 for The Hobbit, if the rights change to NewLine Cinema. Filming for a movie like The Hobbit would not take as long as the three part Lord of the Rings and so could possibly be out as soon as late 2006, perhaps for another Holiday big shot! 2008-2010 is a little off as I see it, but it all really depends on the rights being sold. Interesting little side note, Andy Serkis(Gollum/Smeagol) will be playing the parts of King Kong and Lumpy the Cook.

Ian McKellan however is set to film "Never Was" wich is set to release in 2005. Besides that it looks like he is open for a filming of The Hobbit. Perhaps this film, King Kong, and the rights issue will all be resolved at the same time and lead to a perfect alignment of Hobbit production!

I have a question...Does anyone know if Radagast accompanys Gandalf and Saruman when they went to deal with the "Necromancer" in Dol Guldur during the Hobbit? If he was, then someone can play the part of Radagast the Brown in the movie version. It would be cool to see that.
