I think that seemingly endless action sequences, one after another, is boring. The Hobbit could be made into a great film for all the reasons why Fellowship of the Ring was the best best of the PJ films. Unfortunately, he'll probably stuff the story with a bunch of crap that isn't needed. Any man who thinks it was cool to have the Steward of Gondor run two miles, while on fire, and then leap off the edge of the city's summit should not be trusted with making the Hobbit . . . not in a perfect world at least.
