Anybody see the cover story in the new issue of Entertainment Weekly?
Apparently there’s new hope that Peter Jackson will, after all, be making a Hobbit movie.

Any chance he will be a little more faithful to the actual writing of the book this time? He can cut stuff, but adding stuff is just plain wrong.
Seriously, give us a pair of movies, about 5 hours total length. Should be able to do justice to the Hobbit.

My first impression was that I couldn’t even tell from the “review” whether the 10-year-old actually read the book all the way through. Bilbo fought goblins and wargs? Yup, but that’s what - maybe halfway through the book? I would think that even a child reviewing the book would mention the spiders, and would definitely talk about the dragon. Not to mention any subtler themes/symbolism/etc…

Apparently the full text of the review is a little longerthan what has been quoted in this thread–but just a little.
