Here's some news I think just about everyone here will be interested in.

October 25, 2006 - MGM and New Line Cinema are moving ever closer to making J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit a big-screen reality. And now it seems that the studios may be planning not one, but two films based on the 1937 fantasy novel.

MGM chief operating officer Rick Sands revealed the plans this past weekend during a trade show in Orlando, Florida, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

The Hobbit follows Bilbo Baggins on an adventure with a band of dwarves and the wizard Gandalf as they attempt to reclaim the dwarves' stolen treasure and restore their kingdom

This is the second time in the past month that Sands has publicly commented on the project. A few weeks ago, he issued a statement in response to a fan petition urging MGM and New Line to pursue Lord of the Rings helmer Peter Jackson as the director of The Hobbit.

"Peter Jackson's phenomenal success with The Lord of the Rings trilogy makes him the first and most ideal choice for directing The Hobbit. MGM would be thrilled to collaborate with the Academy Award-winning director on this MGM New Line Cinema production," Sands said.

Wonder if anyone will reprise their hobbit and wizard characters?

I'd think maybe only Gandalf, and some of the elves.It takes place far enough before the lord of the rings that Frodo and company would have been younger, and wouldn't look the same. Also the humans (Aragorn ect) aren't really involved. I've been under the impression that the man who played Bilbo in the LOTR's still might play the part in the Hobbit. So who knows. If they use him for that part it's possible that we could see a younger (with makeup) version of Frodo and such at the end of the Hobbit.
