Re: Can a inevitable film of The Hobbit be viable to make?

Actually, they were the same age when they left the Shire, 50.  Frodo 
is only 33 in the movie because they cut out the 17 years of lolly-
gagging around. :)

Arwen and Aragorn?  I'm hearing the screams of "He's screwing it 
up!" starting from here already. :)

I'd like PJ to do the Hobbit, because I love with he did with LOTR, 
and I'd want it to be in the same universe, but I'm not holding out 
hope.  I believe PJ said ion some interview he had no plans to do any 
more Tolkien.
