Peter Jackson and New Line Cinema have reached agreement to make J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Hobbit," a planned prequel to the blockbuster trilogy "The Lord of the Rings."

"I'm very pleased that we've been able to put our differences behind us, so that we may begin a new chapter with our old friends at New Line," Jackson said in a statement. "We are delighted to continue our journey through Middle Earth."

Two "Hobbit" films are scheduled to be shot simultaneously, similar to how the three "Lord of the Rings" films were made. Production is set to begin in 2009 with a released planned for 2010, with the sequel scheduled for a 2011 release.

What? Why the fuck does it need 2 movies (prolly at 3 hours each) to film a little childrens book.
I can understand the three LOTR movies being so overlong and boring considering their source material, but you could read The Hobbit in an afternoon.
2 movies... 'sake

Yes...Harvey Scissorhands should make Jackson call it 'Kill Billbo'.

This is gonna be craptacular. Hobbits can fuck off back to fucking Bagginsland!

Are Ewoks to Wookies what Hobbits are to Men?

probably not

never mind

Should make a much better film, in theory, than the Rings ones.. far more suitable source material for adaptation anyway. It'll probably be just like those films though if it's made by the same crowd i.e. looks great, but a load of tedious garbage to sit through..

You are dead."

Mexican-born film-maker Guillermo del Toro will direct the film and its proposed sequel.

This might actually be good.
