I heard Peter Jackson basically say
he was filming all the footnotes from the other books and shoehorning them into this one.
Sounds brilliant!
He really needs to go to editing school.

He has to in other to squeeze 3 feature length films out of a relatively short story
and you just know he's eyeing up The Similarion...

I rather hope he does the Silmarillion
There's a lot of epic stories, places and characters, but the book looks horrific as a read. We've been watching the LOTR films at home in the last few days, and I'd forgotten how much I love them.
Hobbit feels a bit childish, but I'd love to see them do the rise and fall of Numenor and the treachery of Morgoth on film.
