Here's a thread for all you LOTR fans out there.

Do you think The Hobbit will come to theaters anytime soon or in the future? And if so would it be any good?

I say there will be one and if it is done by Peter Jackson, or not, it would be decent.

Man, that was a good book. I know nothing about the movie though, unfortunately.

There will be a hobbit movie because they already chose the actors that will be playing in the movie...

I am not quite sure if I will look forward to it, the book was more a children's book to me, and I doubt it will have success as a movie.
I am currently looking more forward for The Amulet of Samarkand, whenever that gets done.

I read the book and it was good, I don't know about the movie though. Like Cenere said it was kind of geared toward kids.

It'll be cool seeing 'how it all started out' on the big screen. Guess I'll probably check it out.

Haven't exactly read the Hobbit. But read the comic version a few times. Pretty exciting fast paced stuff with many sub-plots. And with so many dwarfs, it'll be great!

I would say the book, will be better than the movie. In my opinion after reading all of the LotR books (including the Scimarillian)
The hobbit was by far the most interesting. I guess it probably had to do with the Bilbo Baggins character.

Yes...lots of interesting bits were cut out. But you can't blame them...Time limit. But it was slightly faithful. More than other movies with plots deriving from books anyways.

Examples:

The Undead Army that Aragon commanded didn't actually attack Gondor's assailants during the battle.

What is a hobbit?


A race of little humanoid creatures that love food, enjoyment, merriment...and live in houses affixed in hills called burrows. Frodo was one.
