If I Were Making The Hobbit Movie
September 27, 2010
When Tolkien wrote The Hobbit, he hadn’t developed everything that would be given life in The Lord of the Rings, yet we today can read the former work in light of the latter. Peter Jackson and company may have this interpretive setting in mind while they’re writing The Hobbit, and I hope they do, because I for one would like to see a 10-year-old Aragorn in Rivendell and Legolas make an appearance in Mirkwood. These would be the minimum additions I’d incorporate into the film were I running the show. What would you include given your knowledge of a fully developed Middle-earth?

I’d put in a very quick shot of R2D2 rolling by in the background. So quick, in fact, that people would wonder if it was there and be thoroughly confused about the whole matter.
Necromancer!
Could do a neat sequence on Gollum’s flight into the mountains. Or something about Smaug’s backstory.
Gloin’s wedding
The Scourging of the Shire.
Matt Bowman,
Nice! Perhaps there could be a close up of the “twinkle in his eye”?
