Let The Hobbit Happen!

[Arwen Evenstar the Fair]

I am all for a Hobbit movie as long as PJ does it, like he suppossed too!!!! I'm so excited, it going to be awesome!!!!

My apologies, Arwen, but my opinion is contrary to yours. A movie of The Hobbit is fine with me as long as PJ is not directing. I think he has done too much harm to Tolkien's works. But that is only my opinion. Ah, well...

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, or the point of a discussion would be rather lost

Although I once heard that Elijah Wood said he'd be charmed to play in The Hobbit. I wonder if anyone has told the dear fellow that Frodo isn't IN the Hobbit?

Lol. I find that odd. I mean, that he didn't know that. Oh well, maybe he wanted to try out for one of the dwarves of something..

Anyway, if The Hobbit would be on screen eventually, I would be very disappointed to see Elijah (as Frodo) there....

Heh

I think that the Hobbit would be a good film. But the thing is; I doubt that the film would be anything like I had imagined it would be like. Just as LotR. It doesn't have to be bad, but of course, you always want the films to be the exact way you’d thought it would be. Well, that's me, I don't know about you. In a film that is based on a book, I always would've preferred to see the images I saw in my own head while reading, be re-created on screen. I also would have wanted the things I liked best or found most interesting on screen. The director however, will have his/hers own "images". (Which is kind of sad...I knew I should have directed the LotR films..)

I don't think that Peter Jackson would do a "bad" job, if he made the Hobbit. (I don't think he did a "bad" job on LotR either.) If someone was supposed to direct the film, I would want him to do it; yes, even thought he messed up a few things in LotR.

So, I guess I'm all for making The Hobbit into a film. I mean, no one has to see it if they don't want it...At least, the option is there. :-D

Perhaps he thought he could be Bilbo. He was young then, anyway.
But somehow I can't picture him doing those things Bilbo did in the story.

Just because this is the latest Hobbit thread here is a link that some might find informative, others find annoying. *shrugs*


Hobbit Update -- sort of

As for the Elijah Wood thing, he may just want to have a cameo. He didn't say he'd be charmed to be Frodo...

I'd guess after doing so spectaculary with the trilogy, he'll be going more for the big time - Bilbo Baggins.
