Even though it is quite certain that Peter Jackson and the LotR crew will not be making another great film I would like to ask this: hypothetically speaking if they were to make another movie what Tolkien book would you like it to be based on?

I myself would love to see the Silmarillion made as it is my favorite book, but seeing as it is basically the bible of Middle Earth, the movie would have to be more than the usual 3 hours sustained by the LotR films, I believe the Hobbit should be made. It would provide some very useful background information on Bilbo, and get the viewer more in touch with the Elven and Dwarven cultures.
