Peter Jackson says He Won't Make "The Hobbit"

Anyone who has visited Sharon's and my house will know that we are fans of The Lord of the Rings - the swords and toys in the dining room give it away!

Sad news just came out on AP to announce that Peter Jackson will not be making The Hobbit or The Lord of the Rings prequel. Apparently New Line has not fully paid him for the first trilogy - up to $100 million!

This is a shame as Jackson was a true master at bringing Tolkien's visions to life. My fear is that they end up botching any further films...

Come on New Line - fulfill your deal and try not to destroy the magic of this brilliant partnership!
