Bilbo Jackson
This sucks. The Hobbit was perhaps my favourite childhood book, and given the great job Jackson & his team did with the Lord Of The Rings trilogy, There is surely no-one else that can do justice to the project. It would appear that its down to the studio trying to force Jacksons hand over the lawsuit that he brought against New Line, but to be honest I think they’ve shot themselves in the foot. There’ll be a lot of bad feeling over any Hobbit film without Jackson, WETA et al, and if it turns out to be even less than perfect, it’ll go down the toilet & New Line will lose more money than they would have simply by letting the lawsuit run its course.
Still, the removal of their (New Lines) nose will certainly teach that face a lesson…
