Thought experiment: what if The Hobbit had been filmed before Lord of the Rings?
|
Can't Post

What's done is done. Still, I can't help but wonder: what if Peter Jackson had secured rights to The Hobbit, way back in 1996? What if he adapted that book first? How might a pre-LOTR adaptation have been different? Would it be better or worse? Here's my blog post on the subject: http://www.theoutage.com/...e-lord-of-the-rings/. Feedback welcome!
