GDT believes that CGI is lazy film-making and only uses it when absolutely necessary. Yet another reason why he is my hero.

Yes. And I think that's why, when he does use it, he uses it so effectively.

From The Hollywood Reporter:

"MGM has secured support from key lenders to allow the studio enough cash to proceed with its participation in 'The Hobbit.' "

Without reading the linked article I'm certain that The Hobbit will be made soon enough and that it will have a big budget. The tie-in to the successful LotR trilogy has made it a sure bet, or as close as one can get to that, and with the lure of a grand pay-off, any hurdles on the way will be overcome and investors will not be lacking.
