Good God those Hobbit movies are still going? I thought that stuff was done a few years ago. I saw part of one on TV a long time ago but lost interest quickly as nothing seemed to be getting anywhere.

SteVe, yes, they must still escape from the Pit of Golgorroth and bring the ring to the Valley of the Master Forgers in Breeland before Sarugon summons the Balgag to rain destruction on the veiled city of Minith Tirash. Larry Freeman is very good in this. Plus the dragon Schmaaaaawwwwg is leading the five armies (consisting of Wargs, Hobknobs, South Hadarites, Hadoop Masters and Bardmen) and the quintology part 1 will conclude for now in a terrific battle. I'm a bit disappointed by the love story between Elvind and Maliassa O'Rivers, though. That's not canon and seems a stretch.

The moment they announced they were taking what I consider to be a relatively short book and stretching the fuck out of it to make a bajillion films, I knew we were in trouble. I can't even with the Hobbit films. I just can't.

If PJ somehow ever gets the IP rights to The Sil (which won't be any time soon because most of the current stakeholders of the Tolkien Estate totally hate what he's done) there will be movies long after my corpse has crumbled entirely to dust.

New from Peter Jackson, the completely original seven-part movie series THE SCHMILMARILLION!

The Sil would *easily* be a 21-part saga at the bare minimum. It would rival the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Each son of Fëanor would get a trilogy.

No, this is the Schmilmarillion. Totally different.

So, 42-part saga? They squeezed four movies out of *The Hobbit* after all.
