"Gandalf and Thorin arguing [from The Quest for Erebor] once Bilbo was carted off from his fit...."
------------------------- I like that concept as a way to bridge the children's Hobbit and adult LOTR. I rather doubt PJ has read works like UT (especially footnotes, too much work ![]() but I think there are hints that P. Boyens and/or Fran Walsh have. It could work as a prologue, especially to get non-book attendees up to speed on The Hobbit and its connection to LOTR. Suggestions like Ian H's of a tv limited series would work well but I think there's just too much $$$$$ in movies (and more scope for PJ's pyrotechnics, which is both good and bad- since he seems to get carried away with battle scenes). Still, the Battle of Five Armies is almost tailor-made for him, especially with the big finale with Beorn. ![]()
