Peter Jackson is in the hospital with a stomach ulcer. Filming on the Hobbit will have another slight delay.

With the stress involved in doing 3 films simultaneously, I'm surprised that he came through the trilogy with any stomach left at all. Here's hoping that he can hold up to the demands of the behemoth staring him in the face now!

I read on Syfy's Blastr that Tolkien actually died of a perforated ulcer!

Saoirse Ronan (Lovely Bones, Atonement) has joined the cast. Where is the young female role in The Hobbit?

From what I understand, her role would be as a PJ-created elven "lady-warrior" who is involved in a romance with an elven prince. There has been specualtion of that being Legolas but he's supposed to only have a cameo.
To my knowledge, Thranduil had one child - Legolas. Unless PJ & Co. have created a brother or cousin for Leggy, I'm not sure what elven prince it could be.

I am kind of glad that James Horner didn't write the music for LOTR, or else we would have just had nine and a half hours of the four note "danger motif" that he uses repeatedly in every film he scores, and which he stole from Rachmaninov in the first place. Listen to the first fifteen seconds of this:

Sound familiar? Like Avatar/Troy/Willow/Enemy at the Gates/Titanic/Star Trek/Glory familiar?

It looks like she may be some made up character but I dearly hope that PJ won't somehow include her in the group going to the Lonely Mountains.

Re: The Official "The Hobbit" movie thread
Yeah. I had no recollection of an Itaril in the Hobbit or Silmarillion. I looked it up in Encyclopedia of Arda and the Thain's Book and she wasn't listed. She's apparently a made up character. Hoping that she's not going to be a love interest for Legolas.

It said on onering that he suffered from one shortly before his death, but nothing about it being the cause. According to this article it's treated differently than back then.
I can't remember, but did PJ lose all his weight dieting or with a bypass? If it was bypass, that might be the cause of the problem.
A lot of ulcers are easily treated with anti-biotics these days, but people will suffer with these for a long time before getting them taken care of.

I can't see her being a love interest - she looks too young.

Yeah but she still LOOKS like a kid. I'm sure elves don't pop out of the womb looking like Elrond!

A 'young-person fanciers' perfect get-out clause!
Imagine a guy putting the moves to a beautiful, young thing and then learning that she's almost 1500 years older than him!

Not worried. I remember everyone going nuts when we heard about some stupid new character called "Lurtz."
