Is The Hobbit Dead In The Water Already?
Apparently, not everyone is looking forward to seeing the new adaptation of Tolkien's The Hobbit. Well, for starters, there is a deformed bloke in a village in Peru who keeps getting rocks thrown at him and being called 'Gollum' who wishes they would forget the whole idea. Saying that, he still has the entire Lord of The Rings trilogy on DVD – gold edition, too. Then there's our housemate Steve, who is just odd. And then there is Tolkien's 83-year-old son Christopher, who just doesn't like people enjoying themselves.

Guillermo del Toro Officially Fairly Hobbity
It's official - Guillermo del Toro, the Bo Selecta Peter Jackson, is the director of the two upcoming Hobbit movies. It's been a long time coming, but finally New Line Cinema and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios have announced that they're packing Guillermo del Toro off to New Zealand for the next four years so he can concentrate on making The Hobbit and its sequel, The Hobbit 2: The Hobbit In Space. It doesn't take a genius to see why Guillermo del Toro was chosen to direct the Hobbit movies - his flair for visual invention as demonstrated in Pan's Labyrinth and Hellboy will really bring a sense of panache to his task of filming a bunch of midgets walking across the side of a mountain for six and a half titting hours.

The Hobbit: Peter Jackson & New Line No Longer Be Trippin’
No doubt this is the angle New Line intends to play with the new Hobbit movies that are finally moving forward. 'Surprise! The ring's not really destroyed, its just been resting next to a planet sized colon.' Real juvenile New Line! We'll not reward such nonsense with our money! Or our Mom's money! Sure, it's free from the government, but it's because she's disabled! Grow up New Line Cinema!
In more surprising news, Peter Jackson is definitely going to be attached to the film. He and New Line settled their disagreement allowing things to progress. He's not going to direct though. He's going to play King Kong who now conveniently has to destroy the ring the rest of the way. Seriously, it says so on page 12 in the book 'The Real Tolkien volume III,' which we wrote.
Which we intend to write. Maybe next week. We intend to write a Tolkien book maybe next week.
Lava doesn't boil - it makes way for Earth farts. Granted, it may sometimes look as if its boiling, but that's just visual trickery provided by, as we already said, Earth farts. Air bubbles and what not.
