  • Hobbit Forming: Peter Jackson to Lord Over Prequel | Today's News: Our Take | 12/18/2007
    Following much legal tangling and a small degree of name-calling, Peter Jackson and New Line Cinema have settled all litigation relating to the Lord of the Rings trilogy and reached an agreement to bring J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit to the big screen.

  • Ask Matt | 7/30/2007
    Did you ever get a chance to check out George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire book series? I was really excited a few months back when it was announced that the series was being adapted for TV on HBO. Now that I've seen Deadwood, I'm totally sure that this can work on HBO, and it seems like HBO could use a new quality show. Now that Rome and The Sopranos are gone, I'm seriously thinking about canceling my subscription until A Song of Ice and Fire starts. read more

  • Oh, Lord! New Snub Distances Jackson from Hobbit | Today's News: Our Take | 1/11/2007
    Harsh words uttered by New Line cochairman Bob Shaye in an interview with Sci Fi Wire appear to have all but nixed any chance for Lord of the Rings auteur Peter Jackson to helm the Hobbit trilogy. With a nod to Jackson's lawsuit against New Line, which seeks to sort out a financial anomaly born of an audit of the original LOTR film, Shaye said, "I don't care about Peter Jackson anymore. He wants to have another $100 million or $50 million, whatever he's suing us for. He thinks we owe him... read more

  • LOTR Prankster Gets His | TV Guide Interviews & Features | 12/16/2004
    Talk about a stretch! Everyone loved Pippin, the brave, innocent hobbit played by Billy Boyd in The Lord of the Rings trilogy. So what did the Scottish actor choose for his next role? A voice-over gig as a sexually confused killer doll in the gory slasher comedy Seed of Chucky. His follow-up to that one is On a Clear Day, a heart-warmer about a couple of guys who try swimming the English Channel (due out next year). Meanwhile, since Return of the King's special extended DVD is out this week,... read more
