Hello.

Hell, I gave it a try...read a bit, watched a little....found it to be formulaic and watered-down...the 'old Merlin-like wizard', the giants, the dragons, the 'pageboy'...blah, blah, blah...been done before, and a million times better. Your basic Joseph Campbell/Hero of a Thousand Faces stuff...
Seems more geared towards kids, no?

It is a beloved property, though...I know many diehard fans from ages 10-70ish, so....

:4x:

Yo, Error. Been well?

DL - Sounded a bit creepy, man...along with that face...yikes...

Hi Grady! I'm looking forward to the Hobbit movie too. I loved the Lord of the Rings trilogy, though they left some things out. I read the Hobbit will be made into a trilogy. Hi Sprung.

Indeed! Not to sound morbid, but I worry a bit about Mr. Lee...Christopher will always be one of my favorite actors, (HAMMER HORROR!!) but he is really getting on in years.... :(
My sig? Oh..yeah...I often mess with that stuff..heh..

Nothing beats working on ACs WHILE you are outside buring up, heh, summer almost over, Sprung.

I can understand this pov.
But if you really think about it, movies based on these books should be long.
Lotr trilogy should have been way longer.......but I know it never works that way.

Yeah, but i don't know if there's enough material to justify making three movies. I'm afraid that one will be filler, or part of each movie will be filler.Of course, they want to milk this for all they can get. But three movies..I don't know.

True indeed.
I guess condensing the storyline too much hurts it, and just stretching out to the most boring of exposition doesn't help sales, it's just the material you have to work with.
LotR is a good, lengthy source, which is probably why when they were adapting it, the movies didn't suck harder than a vacuum in a black hole.

The movies were good, my only complaint was the second movie was cut short. I enjoyed the movies and I'm glad Gandalf will be back. I'm excited to see what they do with this book. I'm definitely going to see it.

Still, I think it may have been possible to create say, 2 films based on The Hobbit first.......and then spam the world with a set of three trilogies (9 movies) for lotr.
There's even room to create a movie (or maybe more) based on some of the stories from The Silmarillion.
