    I am such a sad twat that I've already booked my seat at the feck off big IMAX in Waterloo. If it is half as good as the Lord of The Rings film I'll be chuffed.

    Please feel free to take the living piss out of me.

    The LOtR films were a ****e adaptation of the books. The hobbit looks like it will be worse state of affairs

    Really?

    Without getting arsey, the books are written clearly by someone who wasn't an author of fiction - huge chunks digressing on family histories slowing down plot, main protagonists not mentioned for about 400 pages - and I thought they did a pretty good job.

    I'm choking to see the Hobbit - read the books as a child and I've always been keen to see the world fleshed out. As they're going to be a trilogy, I'd expect plenty of stuff from LOTR appendices to end up in the film (like the elf/Strider love story in LOTR).

    The books (hobbit and LOTR) were ****ing dire

    LOTR films were a bit better but not as good as they're made out to be. very dull in places

    Hello ER, I thought of you as I posted this! You have surprised me though, I thought it would be for ****s not *****s!

    That decent sort from the TV show Lost, Evangeline Lilly, is in The Hobbit playing an elf, can't wait to see her with pointy ears <nerdwanksmiley>

    I enjoyed the books, though they were a bit arduous. I thought the LOTR trilogy was brilliant, I don't think they could've been done any better. Maybe if Sam hadn't have spoken in that daft West Country accent, and Liv Tyler had got her tits out.

    If it had been in black and white ER would have had his cock out before the intro credits finished! If he just imagined it was Citizen Kane with dwarves he'd be fine with it.

    Better still, if that horse she rode through the river unseated her and then beasted her arse while her elfy face contorted in a shocked display of vaginal pain <ok><awayfurrawank>

    I just realised that I turned myself on typing on a forum about a horse arseraping an elf.

    See, this is the type of thing I need to pack in if I'm going to progress in any way with my life <doh>

    Progression is over-rated. You're going to die one day and anything you ever achieved will be forgotten. To conclude, thrash yourself silly while you still can <ok>

    The books didn't do anything for me - I'm really not a fan of that genre at all. Have to say Super Jack wins the award for the best description of them though!

    I don't remember the LoTR books being anywhere near as gay as the films. Given that The Hobbit book was aimed at even younger children, I can only assume that the film will be even gayer than the LoTR ones. In summary, gay.

    The books are ****ing awesome, anyone that doesn't like them has a micropenis and a tendance towards bumraping rodents.

    The films are pretty gash though, still more watchable than most made nowadays. When Legolas slid down the stairs on his shield in the 2nd one a bit of my love for the books died...

    Man, as a young bloke, I thought the Trilogy was ****en brilliant. To be fair though, as an old bastard, I probably wouldn't enjoy it as much now. The Hobbit was pretty good as was the adventures of Tom Bombadil were ok, but were lightweights against The Lord Of The rings.
