While I would like to see The Hobbit made into a movie, the idea of having multiple, Hollywood-encrusted prequels/sequels/interim stories is frightening. The honor and grace of Tolkien's life's work would diminish to no more than that of cheap action figures.
Oh, wait. That's already happened.
But yes, if New Line decides to capitalize on the books, thing will get much worse. As it was mentioned, we might even see television cartoons that make the 1970's versions of the films look like silmarills.
