I recall speculation some time back (before, I think, any Hobbit film was formally announced) that, if a film of the Hobbit was ever made, they might cut down the number of Dwarves. In some ways it would make sense, for the reasons that you state, to amalgamate some of them so as to end up with a smaller, but more individually well-defined, group. Have any of those with their ears to the ground on this heard anything to this effect?

Btw, I am still hoping for Martin Freeman in the role of Bilbo ...
