I for one am going to Boycott any Hobbit movie made without Peter Jackson. I mean come on so the LOTR was not exactly like the books big deal they put in the parts that kept the story moving and some of the stuff they left out was infered. All this is about is New Line not wanting to miss out on the Billions this movie would make with PJ at the helm. Their rights to make a hobbit movie run out in 2007 and go back to the publisher at which point MGM or Peter Jackson himself could buy the rights to make it. I for one hope that people like Sir Ian McKellen, and Andy Sirkis also say no without PJ. Think what you will this is MY opinion and as far as I am concerned they wont see a penny of my money on the hobbit or a 2nd prequil without Peter Jackson directing it.
