I hope this'll be anywhere near as good as LotR. The Hobbit is more magical than LotR.

Oooh, I'm liking that Guillermo Del Toro is directing it. I loved Pan's Labyrinth.

I don't know about directors, but Peter Jackson is back for it, which matters more to me. Apparently, although found on wikipedia, it was said that most of the original actors would love to reprise their roles for the movies if needed. XD

Awesome! 2010? thats sooooo long from now! and im sure it will be longer... I hope it feels like the other movies and not something different. I'm very pleased to see that Guillermo Del Toro is directing it. He does such magical things. I might just see hell boy 2 because of his work. Pan's Labyrinth is such a great movie! i saw it 3 times in theaters! and have it on dvd. AHHH i just cant wait! Thanks so much for the info!

Well, 2010, if released on time, is only 2 years away. Now imagine hearing that they are making a movie of your favorite triliogy, and the news is released in summer of 2004, but the movie is released in December of 2007. Over 3 years to wait for something that made me nearly cry from the disappointment, after the trailors where so dead on to the book at that.

How often does anybody see a movie about a book they read and enjoyed it more? Film makers create THEIR vision. Nobody else's.

LotR rocked. The Golden Compass rode the Fail Boat.
It wasn't that it was HIS vision, but that they changed certain things to make those pesky religious pests happy. Not that it worked, but eh.

There are a few movies I've seen that I actually enjoyed more than the books they're adapted from. I thought "Contact," the science fiction movie with Jodie Foster, was much more enjoyable than Carl Sagan's book (the book is bogged down with lengthy explanations of the pseudoscience and math behind the story, to the point where it's quite tedious to read), and more recently I thought the movie adaptation of Steven King's "The Mist" was remarkably true to the source material and that the one thing they did change, the ending, was a much more ballsy way to end, and it was truer to the basic themes set up earlier in the story.Benevolent_Ghaleon wrote:How often does anybody see a movie about a book they read and enjoyed it more?

hey! what a coincidence! The Hobbit, even though i love the book, started to annoy me with having lengthy explanations in parentheses. i'd have to go back and read the first half the sentence again.

Heh... don't read Faulkner then.Benevolent_Ghaleon wrote:hey! what a coincidence! The Hobbit, even though i love the book, started to annoy me with having lengthy explanations in parentheses. i'd have to go back and read the first half the sentence again.
But anyway, I'll be looking forward to The Hobbit with a bit of skepticism. I think the tone of the movie needs to be a lot different than the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I think... I've had this particular conversation here before, and most people felt that Jackson could pull it off. I'm not really familiar with Guillermo Del Toro's work, but from the little I've seen of Pan's Labyrinth, I think he can capture the youthful and magical feel of The Hobbit.

Well, the way I always saw it (having read the books and watched the movies) is that the beginning of FotR (movie one) from where Gandalf arrives to when Frodo departs, may actually be very close to the way to expect the hobbit to run. From the party to the Hobbits having to hide from the dark riders after they fell down the small dirt cliff.

I read the book and watched the moves to me the movies were 85% from the book and 15% made up the director did a good job of keeping it close to the book (for once ) but besides LOTR no other books have been good movies, well maybe the first Harry Potter move but that’s it

IMHO the first LOTR movie was good but the other two starting getting silly. Still good, but definitely unnecessarily silly.

I'm also pro-life. But, I'm going to start deleting posts and will lock this thread if anyone insists on turning a thread about The Hobbit into a debate over abortion.phyco126 wrote:*ahem* I'm prolife, but if you choose to debate it, I won't be apart of it.

Also, as far as books vs movies go... Frankenstein, the movie, was worlds better than the novel. The novel was lousy; the movie (and I'm talking the classic black-and-white one) had far more substance and plausibility. KF

I'm with Kiz and Phyco... Pro-life, but please no abortion flame-war. It's a flame-bait topic, and especially has no business starting up in a thread about the Hobbit.
