From Stuff.co.nz: Peter Jackson may have had enough of filming hobbits and elves as he completes the final Lord of the Rings instalment but, like any good Kiwi dad, he’s happy to pick up a handycam to film his son playing rugby. [More]
Eagle-eyed TORn staffer Anwyn points out the comment at the end of the story: “Jackson also revealed he had hoped to bring JRR Tolkien’s other classic book The Hobbit to the big screen, but the film rights are tied up in a “complex” arrangement involving a rival Hollywood studio.” Interesting!
