Re: The Hobbit pushed to 2013

To bad this wasn't posted back in April.

Things are really starting to look bleak. I really hope we start seeing some good news show up soon.

thats a long time to wait for a movie.so does this mean we wont see the extended lord of the rings flicks on blue ray till 2014 then.because l thought the extended ones would be released in a box set with the new hobbit movies.

Wow, this really stinks. Things must be pretty bad cash flow wise because this movie (sorry movies) will make tons of money and there really isn't anyway to question that.

Well it looks like I will be seeing the earth shatter before I can enjoy the greatest extended films on BD.

Noooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is sad news.

Neil Blomkamp's phone is ringing, and PJ is on the other end.

Re: The Hobbit pushed to 2013

Ughhhh....This is a major blow. I just dont understand why PJ won't pick up the reigns again. Frankly this has become so protracted i just don't care anymore.

I don't think New Line will let him.

Poop

I was really looking forward to Del Toro's take on this. Maybe he can get to work on Hellboy 3?

So rather then getting pushed to 2013, it's just getting closer to the door.

As for the extended versions on BD, clearly they have the time, so just get them done already......

Re: The Hobbit pushed to 2013

It sucks but thats what happens when you have one of the companies going under big time. Honestly, this means I think PJ jumps in and directs it. Which is fine with me.

 

[OSCORP]

Re: The Hobbit pushed to 2013

I was never thrilled like some he was directing in the first place.

 

[kaponokeona]

Re: The Hobbit pushed to 2013

I'm the same way, when I originally heard that PJ was not directing I thought, what is the point in attempting to do The Hobbit based on the success of LOTR without the main reason for its success. Why can't they just get their act together?

 

[King Darkness]

Re: The Hobbit pushed to 2013

Meh

It will happen when it happens, and theres a 50/50 chance it will stink or be amazing no matter who directs.

Re: The Hobbit pushed to 2013

I'm not too upset about this. This project was monopolizing far too much of the man's time, and I believe he wasn't as happy with the situation as he wanted to be. I'm sure now he'll return home to LA and get to work on a project closer to his heart. One which will actually get made. There are a number of terrific projects on his slate, so I'm not worried. Still feels like a bit of a waste though.

Re: The Hobbit pushed to 2013

This is a massive blow to the film though because GDT wouldve brought that extra fantastical dimension to it we all know he has. Add to that McKellen is in his 70's now and the only way Christopher Lee will be in it, will be if they film his scenes from a nursing home...
