Here are a few movies I'm really looking forward to:

King Kong
-Comes out Wednesday. Can't wait!

New World

-About America's beginning and Pocahontas. I have no doubt in my mind the most beautiful girl that walks the earth is in this movie. Comes out on Christmas.

And a movie which I have been DYING for and hasn't been made due to legal troubles, which is rumoured to be made soon (hint: Peter Jackson said he plans to film it in 4 year's time..and his associates said it is "...not a matter of IF...but WHEN." is....

The Hobbit. I cannot wait for this movie. If there was a set date, I'd be counting it down to the very second!

Whoa, they're making the hobbit? I hope they don't mess anything up. That's a bad title to mess up on. And by messing up i mean i hope it's a little better than Lord of the Rings.

I'm a bad movie critic. I'm sorry. perhaps that's why i have no girlfriend. to me, all movies suck these days. to me they're combining toy story and real life just because it's probably cheaper and easier to hire a bunch of computer geeks to whip up some fake character. i'm sorry, but when i see a movie i expect it to be cool, real. my brain just cannot accept some cartoon in a real life movie. whevever i'm watching something like hulk, spider man...etc. i have to force my mind to accept something that isn't really there at all.

therefore, i'm not at all excited about anything really. it's either a sellout because they're cheap these days and there's more sh*tty cheap computer related movies & remakes coming out like resident evil and some other crap that i can't stand to spend $7-$10 to see another hole in a bridge. everything nowadays is so hyped up. it's nothing more than a commercial that is bound to sell the movie more than the movie itself.

^...a movie, better than LOTR...you must be joking!

LOTR are the greatest movies of all time, and I think forever will be.

To take books as complex as J.R.R. Tolkien's and make it into a film is an incredibly difficult and honorable task. There is absolutely no way those movies could be any better and more accurate without making them 3 times longer, and that just wouldn't be acceptable.

Considering Peter Jackson took some of Tolkien's mid-range complexity books and made them into movies everyone could understand is awesome. Since the Hobbit is far, far, more basic than LOTR, I think P. Jackson could make a hell of a movie.

Just thinking of how cool scenes of Smaug, and the 5 Armies will be hail.gif

...Now if anyone tried to make a 3 hour long movie of The Silmarillion, then I think that would be a failure..hehe
