Hobbit likely pushed back to 2012?

Is that before or after the Mayan army marches past by night and the refugees from Atlantis twack them down?

It's so hard to keep all these plot lines straight.

Do what I do. Don't try.

What plot line? Part two has no plot line, it needs no plot line.

We don't need no stinking plot lines.

Oh and I am up for moot too. Toronto anyone?

and Alantians don't twack they gleet.

Rumor has it that Part 2 will largely be David-Lynchian-style surrealist dream piece. Complete with lesbians and midgets. (Which aren't dwarves, btw.)

Jackson says as far as he knows, the films are still scheduled to be release in 2011 and 2012:

Exclusive: Peter Jackson Talks LORD OF THE RINGS Blu-ray and Says THE HOBBIT is Still 2011

Do you know the two years you guys are aiming for with The Hobbit to come out.

Jackson: Nothing has changed as far as I am concerned. Somebody wrote something on the internet and a lot of nonsense happened. You don’t want to believe everything you read on the internet. We were due to deliver the scripts and be shooting sometime around April and now I think I said in an interview we were shooting in June. And somehow people are now saying the film is delayed. As far as I am aware, they are not delayed at all. I am not even sure when we are going to start shooting…we are delivering the scripts just after Christmas they’ll be finished and we’ll be shooting as soon as we possibly can. But you need a certain amount of time to finish the pre-production.

So you believe in December 2011 the first part is going to be in theaters.

Jackson: At this stage, that is certainly the plan. Yeah.

What a great smily. I think I'll have to upload that one to our list here when I get a chance

PJ's sure looking good these days. Wow. Still unkempt, of course, but otherwise, quite a transformation.

But Paraguayan Venomous Ducks are real. It says so right here.

If PJ hadn't kept the unkempt look I probably would not have recognized him. Wow!

Well, at least we have some strong statistics now to let us know how it all might end:

Prim will be pleased to see that her idea is ranked #16.

An event that changes humanity permanently, in science fiction lingua franca, is called the Singularity. And I've been accused of writing the first Singularity romance.

<waggles fingers> Bring it on.

Um, er, otherwise, should I move this to my Geek thread, Lali? Not to presume anything.

<whoah; how'd I end up in this thread?>

Watches in shock, SHOCK I tell you, as Prim waggles.

You ain't seen nothin' yet.

Move it if you like, or I'll just re-post the link--whichever you prefer. I posted it here first because we had been talking about it here. (But it's a bit OT!)

If you'd like to re-post the link, that might be simplest. Thanks! Got to feed the geeks.
