i would like to see the hobbit as a movie but not if it was bad and i dont think it would fit well with lotr. but i wouldnt mind seeing it. although, the fact that it is such a childrens tale, more or less, makes me not want to see a serious live action movie. it would seem less magical to me. although i am curious about how one might turn out.
oh yeah, caleb, go away. |

Although it is more of a childrens tale I would love to have one!
I think it would be interesting seeing it and good seeing Smaug in action! In the future it would be a good introduction to LotR as the book of The Hobbit was to me. I wouldn't be as excited as I am about LotR but trust me; I would be screaming with exciment to see it as a film! |

Personally, I think they should have done the Hobbit movie first, but I still think it would be a great idea. I don't get why people think it's so hideously childish--and so what if it is childish? Children love LOTR. Children write LOTR fanfics, do art--what's wrong with a book more geared to them? It isn't condescending. I think a movie would be great if they kept to the spirit of the books. Of course the elves would be less solemn--they weren't born during a war! It would be wonderful to see who would play Bilbo in his middle-ageness and Smaug and the spiders would be awesome to behold. Besides, it could be an apology for the cartoon and that awful theme song. Nobody torture yourself with that--*chokes*--"movie". It would be cool to actually have a good one.

its ok...
I think it was a good idea to make the flims but, I think they should stick to the books story line and only add a few minor details in. Oh and in the first one, It was good and all but there was to much dialouge

i think it would be great and i think it would make a good story...
i think if it was to be made into a movie PJ would have to do it and they would have to have Ian Mckellen and Ian Holm in it so it would be the same sort of style of movie and they would all run nicley together... im all for the idea i would just love to see the battle of five armies on the big screen.. i think that the hobbit has many scenes that would be great and have lots of feelings in them that would set the movie far apart from the childrens story many people think it is... Valiant and proud Thorin "TO ME!!! TO ME!!!" and fili and kili dying alongside thorin... also the passage through mirkwood would be done really well by PJ as he did the scene in the Fellowship with the 4 hobbits on the road just before they saw the Nazgul for the first time basically they should do it but only if they fullfill my 6 requirements... 1. PJ must direct it and Ian Mckellen and Ian Holm must be in it. 2. The battle of five armies must be in it and done well. 3. Troll scene must also be in it. 4. must be lots of partying at the start (i would also like it if they changed it so the dwarves get drunk ) 5. must keep in all pipesmoking scenes and beorns house and 6. Thorins line "TO ME!!! TO ME!!!" must be in it

It would be interesting seeing how alike all the spiders are to the Shelob! |

Legolas is fit: It wouldn't really be possible to have the movies more true to the book, but with less dialogue. The Lord of the Rings is not about fighting, battles, etc. It has a good deal of dialogue in it; certainly far more than was in the movies. So, having it more accurate to books, but at the same time saying that it has too much dialogue, is, in my opinion, incoherent.

Here is something I read today that was quoted by Ian McKellen in regards to a Hobbit adaptation:
Quote:

Sinome maruvan ar Hildinyar tenn' Ambar-metta!' - And those were the words that Elendil spoke when he came up out of the Sea on the wings of the wind: 'Out of the Great Sea to Middle-earth I am come. In this place will I abide, and my heirs, unto the ending of the world.' 'Then Tuor arrayed himself in the hauberk, and set the helm upon his head, and he girt himself with the sword; black were sheath and belt with clasps of silver. Thus armed he went forth from Turgon's hall, and stood upon the high terraces of Taras in the red light of the sun. 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.

I tink that the Hobbit would be a great idea because all of my friends who aren't Tolkien nuts ( I know, I know but some people aren't as obsessed as we are) are always asking me to explain it and I think that if someone did make a Hobbit movie I wouldn't have to explain so much because the Hobbit answers a lot of questions that aren't answered in LOTR.

Beorn would definitely be an interesting person to cast for, tough choice on finding someone to be him...
