Good grief they can't even get the name spelt right.

Yes, I am a non-speller, so you can tell how egregious this if I spotted it. I get this channel, so I guess I need to watch it tonight and see if they still make this same mistake.

Not so fast Mr. del Toro.

As we reported back in February, the Tolkien estate is suing New Line Cinema (or maybe now Warner Bros.) claiming that New Line still owes Tolkien's son, Christopher Tolkien, a sizable portion of the profits from The Lord of the Rings trilogy. Tolkien is also looking to prevent the filming of the new Hobbit movies under director Guillermo del Toro.

A jury trial date of October 19, 2009 has been set to determine whether Tolkien has the right to block the Hobbit prequels.

Meanwhile, on June 6th a California judge will issue a ruling as to whether New Line still owes money to the Tolkien estate. Tolkien is also seeking to prevent the use of a collection of memoirs entitled "The Silmarillo" as source material for the Hobbit movie.

We'll continue to update you as this story unfolds.
 
Is that anything like an armadillo?

Or is it a place like Amarillo?

If I still smoked I'd light up a Tiparillo and give this a thought..

.
 
I suppose if they did have such a collection, they could be called 'Silmarillo'. Sort of a super-duper double top secret working project code name. Code names are fun! Who wouldn't want one?!

So, any guesses whose "memoirs" these might be? ;P
 
The Silmarillo..........LOL....that wil keep me chuckling for the rest of the evening - Silmarillo [laugh][laugh][laugh][laugh]
