I just don't like it [In reply to] Can't Post

It's cool that they're linking the trilogies together, but they shouldn't be bound and gagged to each other. The Hobbit should get a substantial amount of it's own cannon to give it its own foothold in the world of cinema. A theme for a grudg between a dwarf and orc-neither of which make it to LOTR-is a contender for this.

Davy Jones could've been Bilbo...I mean he was a Brit with a sense for adventure, singing & dancing. And think of the costs it would've save with forced perspective: he was ACTUALLY 5'3. He also hung out with a grumpy tall dude in a hat (Mike Nesmith.) While we're at it let's just have Micky Dolenz and Peter Tork as Merry & Pippin.

            I thoroughly enjoyed the music in the movie and am a bit at a loss at why everyone is so worked up about it. But, then again, I know a few people who liked the movie have been staying away from this forum due to all the negativity and hostility.
