I must have missed this thread before. I also agree that the trilogy needed one director, but its prequel might be improved with a different look. I'd suggest Gilliam if he could behave (he can't). Probably the names you'll hear will be Guillermo del Toro, Alfonso Cuaron, maybe Gore Verbinski, maybe Ang Lee, or even Robert Zemeckis (the frst to experiment with the technology used in LOTR). Myself, I'd like to see Jean-Pierre Jeunet or Christophe Gans.

I want to see it done by the Wachowskis!

Bilbo: I don't want to go on this quest, Gandalf, I want to stay home and eat.

Gandalf: But you already know what you're going to do.

Bilbo: But why?

Gandalf: But you already know why.

Bilbo: Well, ok... Who will come wit h me?

Gandalf: You already know who will come with you.

I really, really would not want to see Terry Gilliam direct it. Not that Gilliam is a bad director, but sometimes he can have a really distorted view of what the central theme of a story is. Listen to his commentary on Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and you'll see what I mean. And the last thing I want is for Gilliam to decide that the Hobbit is at its heart a love story about Bilbo and Thorin.

Can't really think of who I'd like to see direct it or what direction I'd like to see the movie take though. I think I'll just be happy to see a film version of the story finally.
