Alright. And the rights to the Hobbit still belong to the Tolkien estate? Or does Miramax, who thought about doing LotR, have them?
Actually, as I understand it, New Line has the right to make a movie based on The Hobbit, but another studio (Universal???) holds the distribution rights. At least, that's where it stood last year, and I've heard nothing concrete about negotiations since then.
