To Mr. Del Toro, I haven't posted on this site in years, but I had to come on to thank you for all our efforts thus far in trying to make The Hobbit happen. When I found out PJ wouldn't be directing it, I felt you were the best person to take the reigns. I am sadden that the current situation has forced you out of a dream project. However, I am thankful that you are making the best decision for you and your family. I truly hope that whatever influence you've had on the film in your time working on it, will be reflected upon screen. Thanks again and I look forward to your future projects. God bless.
