The Hobbit delayed - Jackson has stomach ulcer
- Thread starter Candlelight
- Start date
I'm not surprised, given how many problems The Hobbit has faced, even before filming has started.
Give me the script. I'll have this puppy ready in a few weeks. It may go straight to Youtube though.
Next you'll tell us the script doesn't pass the Bechdel Test!
^Are there even any women in The Hobbit?
It's been forever since I read the novel, but I don't remember there being any. Cate Blanchett is set to appear in the movie, so they've somehow managed to work Galadriel into the script.
Dori, Ori and Nori have all been changed to female dwarf characters, and are rumored to be played by Selma Hayek, Jennifer-Love Hewitt, and Hayden Panettiere.
Dirk Benedict has started a campaign petitioning for the characters to be returned to their rightful male gender.

I am sitting here at my desk in shock.
I...
don't quite know how I feel about this.
Unfortunate to hear but not surprising. It was clear in those interviews he gave a few months ago during the union dispute that he was at his wits end. Hope he can rest up and hire some good assistant directors.
I know from personal experience what genuine and prolonged stress can do to a person's health. I once worked with a guy with more problems than I care to name and he ended up with a nasty skin condition and a stomach ulcer. Needing the money, he stubbornly tried to go on working and ignore the ulcer and...well let's just say it ended with him coughing up blood and me having a terrifying trip down the M1. Not fun.

You don't know how to feel about the tongue-in-cheek satire?
No it's more like the guy has been through SO MUCH shit and had stress upon him we could not even dream of. It's no wonder this has happened - something had to give!
Since none of the LoTR films did either it wouldn't exactly be a big shock.
Brett Ratner is on speed dial...
"Do not speak of such things."
If I were in charge of this movie, I'd have an ulcer, too....and probably a reservation for a padded room.
No.
How I feel about the fact that there are rumours going around that Dori, Ori, and Nori may be changed to female characters.
That wasn't a fact. That was a joke. Caliburn24 was teasing when he said that those characters would be played by sexy actresses. According to IMDb, those characters will be played by Mark Hadlow, Adam Brown, and Jed Brophy respectively.
