Peter Jackson to produce The Hobbit

(And yes, I'll actually post something about myself one of these days, too; I haven't forgotten, it's just that nothing extraordinary has happened in a while...)

The Elf rejoices, but...

The Hobbit... and a sequel to The Hobbit? WTF is that gonna be like?

Merry Christmas 'n'at by the way. :)

Maybe not all bad

There's potentially some good story to be had between The Hobbit and LoTR -- the White Council driving the Necromancer/Sauron from Mirkwood, Golum's captivity, escape, and first trip to Mordor, Balin's expidition to Moria...I can see how a decent movie could be made to tie The Hobbit into LoTR.

I can also see how an atrocious one could be made... I wouldn't go so far as to say I _trust_ Peter Jackson, but I'm at least willing to wait and see.
