Wasn’t quite sure where to put this LOTR thread…
This might not be a good sign for The Hobbit

this was put up in the Random News thread last night…it ain’t bueno…
The big question is who is going to direct now?
They are digging up Ed Wood, literally.
Aparently great minds think alike, because io9 just posted this:
“Who Should Direct the Hobbit”
Some good ideas in there, I vote for Sam Raimi.
Excuse my ignorance, but what about Peter Jackson.
Does he not want to direct it? Or is there some deal whereby he can’t direct it?
Mine is for Alfonso Cuaron.
And Ed Wood.
Did he lose his mojo when he lost the weight?
There’s gotta be some behind-the-scenes hinkiness if a geek god like Jackson is dropping out of making The Frakking Hobbit. I know he’s a busy dude, but really…
Update: Looks like it’s an intractible financial mess with the studio/financing:

I was thinking the same thing. Is this to be an American production? I’ve come to think of LOTR as steeped in Kiwi-ness.
ThotFullGuy, I gotta say your avatar is weirding me out. I can’t stand Atherton Wing, so every time I see his face I have this “dislike” reaction, but I like you, so my brain shorts out for a few seconds. Just saying. 
Here’s a picture of me arguing with Solai (probably about Famke Janssen).

But I think you’ll like this picture better:
Now that the Firefly arc is over, I need a new avatar. So thanks for the reminder
Oooh- love this one !
