The Hobbit = the first
Lord of the Rings prequel film, coming in 2012. With the coolest guy working in Hollywood, Guillermo Del Toro, directing. I've never been the biggest
LOTR obsessor, but the idea of Del Toro being given commander-duties on the biggest franchise this side of Romero's
Dead films (okay, Stretch Armstrong there, but a zombie lover can fantastize with the best of them) is quite pleasing.
Interviewing Sir Del Toro shall forever remain a journalistic career highlight; could've talked international horror cinema for hours.Empire, the best movie magazine around. Damn shame that owning each issue of cinema overload beats the piss out of your wallet. $10 an issue, thanks to importing costs and the such (it's printed out in London). I'm sure the
Watchmen story is a doozy; all I've really read thus far have been the pretty-much-daily news bits following the court case and fandemonium.
