isnt the hobbit actually 'in the works' or being talked about? I thought i heard Jackson was doing this after King Kong? or is that just a rumor?
similarian, how the heck will this be made into a movie? I havent read it, but from my understanding it is a) a very hard (not easy to get into type thing) read b) basically a history of middle earth
however i do think i heard it has a lots of shorter/little stories in it since it is a history, so maybe a tv mini series type thing could be made where each episode is one of the stories. but seriously, from what ive heard of this (want to read it but like i said heard its hard to get into, my one friend said only way he could 'read' it was getting the audio book which ive been trying to track down but local library doesnt have it) it wouldnt make a good book, be kinda like making the appencies of LOTR into a movie.
