Thank you for being so open with the fans! Every time you confide your thoughts to us, I become more certain that you are going to do great things with these films. But I must say I'm a little jealous, since you'll be burrying yourself in Tolkien for quite some time! I love what you've said about the second film. I think it's quite brilliant. There is such an endless wealth of events happening in this time period, that the film will only be limited by your imagination. This could be an incredibly powerful story on its own. I'm just sad that you won't be allowed to utilize Tolkien's other works.
(to everyone) Unfinished Tales has some really great moments that would be perfect for the film, don't you think? Part three of "the hunt for the ring" contains one of my favorite scenes, a discussion between Gandalf and Saruman about pipeweed and hobbits, ending with a cryptic gesture by Gandalf, hinting that he knows what's going on in Saruman's mind. It would be perfect in the movie (though it takes place before the Hobbit), since it shows so effectively the relationship between the two wizards and the state of Saruman's mind in those years... but oh well, with all the stuff in the appendix, it'll still be fantastic. We all believe in you, Mr. Del Toro!
