Dunno who this Del Toro fella is...

Personally I would like to see Tim Burton direct the Hobbit. I'm really not a big fan of his filmmaking but visually he's great and he would do a wicked Mirkwood. I also don't think the Hobbit should be made in a style similar to LoTR. The tone of the book is obviously much lighter and I think the movie should reflect that. Plesase Mr. director, give it a wonderous fairy-tale feel instead of the realism of the trilogy.
