My thoughts exactly, although I can understand wanting to get a ruling on those accounting practices (evil bloody numbers..).
I wonder who they'll go for instead? We watched Return of the King again last night (something Rob avoids because it makes him homesick) and they did such a good job considering how in depth Tolkein was and how little time (comparatively) a filmaker has to get all that across. Would anyone else even bother to maintain continuity in terms of style, scripting etc?
As for more prequels *face!palm* some things are best left to the written word.
What I'd read earlier in the week was a bridge movie between the Hobbit and LOTR. Which would be kind of cool since it would be lots of Gandalf and Elves [g] I'm assuming it would be about the White Council, and realizing it was Sauron, etc. I'll take what I can get [g]
Thanks for posting this, Ith! *pensive* I'm not sure that I'll want to see this in the cinema if it's not directed by PJ. It will end up on tv eventually, anyhow.

Hm, the Silmarillion? Unfinished Tales?
Let it go, dudes.

I'm not saying I wouldn't go see it :) especially if Ian McKellan was still playing Gandalf, but I'd miss the scruffy glory of Aragon.
