But to stay on topic, didn't Peter Jackson do to the Hobbit what Orci and Kurtzman did to Star Trek, turning thought provoking works into mindless action schlock? Is anyone afraid that Jackson could spend the rest of his life butchering the rest of Tolkien's work in the same vein?
Well, The Hobbit was never really a though-provoking work, just a kid's fairy tale.
Peter Jackson still missed the point by making it a bloated nine-hour trilogy.
