No word on who is directing yet, hopefully it will be Jackson.

Awesome. The Hobbit is easily my childhood favorite. I've read that book half a dozen times even though I could never seem to slog my way through the Lord of the Rings trilogy.
Although you can't debate some of those other films. I saw transformers for the first time last week and while the special effects were solid, the rest of the movie left a lot to be desired. That had to be one of the worst patchwork romances slapped on to a movie that I've ever seen, and the writing at times (most of the time) was just plain awful.
I'm not so sure how much steam this Hobbit flick will have. They pretty much told to story in LOTR. Seems like a money grab, but I can't complain. Something to look forward to
I am very excited about this film, I am a huge LOTR fan like most people are. Should be pretty interesting, I wonder if they will bother getting Orlando back for a cameo or just skip over that part.

At the risk of derailing the thread, I agree on Transformers. I thought the only purpose the female lead actress served in that film was to inject a pair of breasts into the script. Her character added nothing to the film.
As far as the Hobbit goes, it should be great since Frodo won't be anywhere near it.

For the most part, it's a completely different story that has little to do with the Lord of the Rings other than a little bit of setting up the plot for that tale.
Dude that is awesome..that's all you really need to see.
I hope it has some resemblence/continuity with the Lord of the Rings movies. Those were pretty much as good as the movies could have been.
