Well considering the whole production will be shooting simultaneously, I think it'd be awkward to have two directors. It's a massive production, and Jackson knows how to handle it. Del Toro has never tackled something that big. While I'd liked to have see what he'd have done, I'm happy enough to let Jackson loose in Middle Earth again.

Well I ment him or anyone in general really, I feel just a bit iffy about creating one long flowing story out of mini stories. I do love his work though so fingers crossed it turns out well!

Call me old fashioned but I prefer films with people in them
wtf is a Hobbit anyway ??

What age am I? 27. Why? If you prefer fillums wit' peoples, then you are missing out on Toy Story, Lion King, Gremlins, Madagascar, Ice Age, Shrek etc.

You hate them? then why watch them?

Em, how do you decide you don't like a film? By judging them before you know anything about them? Not I. I'll watch them, and then make a decision. And LOTR put me to sleep. All of them.

All these references to NAMA, harney, the HSE, bertie and cowen in nearly every thread are tiresome and boring, Christ talk about something else FFS.

But if you didnt like 1 or 2 why keep watching?

I thought the LOLR movies were a bit long winded, and many of the scenes completely overacted. When they weren't running, or saying good bye to someone, the rest of it I liked. More so on repeated watching. That said it looked great, and the music was great. I'd be interested in seeing the Hobbit.

Of course the Hobbit is more a kids story than the LOLR. I wonder how they'll pitch the Hobbit. It would be a pity if the kids can't watch it. They make too many kids stories, into movies for older kids/adults.
