I don't have that much interest in seeing an animated Lord of the Rings by Disney or anyone else. I would be interested in having someone do a fine adaptation of The Hobbit, (please not Disney), so that families could take younger children to see it, and just because a quality adaptation of The Hobbit has never been done. (Believe me, I would go see it too!)<P> LOTR is a bit intense if you have small children. My daughter is 9 and a little shy. She loves the stories because I've told many of them to her. She tries to tie in all her school essays to Tolkien themes (just like mom), but she hid her head in my shoulder for significant chunks of the movie. <P>I wonder if there's any possibility of someone coming out with a Hobbit, since LOTR has been such a commercial success? The problem remains that it's geared to a younger crowd, so they wouldn't necessarily inherit the audience from LOTR (except for crazies like me who will go see anything like this). sharon, the 7th age hobbit<p>[ May 08, 2002: Message edited by: Child of the 7th Age ]
