No matter

Guillermo del Toro would have suit the project fancy, i dinna like neil nor district 9.

 

[Jane Burgess]

I think it is good

Should be good with him in the chair.

 

[Embryoyo]

There's no telling until it happens. I could see him doing a decent job with it though.

 

[DJCowboy]

I think it could be good. I'd rather have Jackson doing it, though. I'm not a big fan of del Toro leaving the project too. I would have definitely loved to have seen his vision of Middle Earth

 

[ballzano]

this should be jackson's project, If not him, than a confidant..

I wouldn't believe any rumor on the subject that doesn't address the MGM financial situation, or that the project has been separated from MGM's problems.

I still don't think The Hobbit will ever get made. Regardless Mr. Blomkamp would do a fairly good job I'd imagine.

Del Toro can start working on Hellboy 3!

 

[calpoon]

yeah, but who's doing Breaking Dawn?

 

[LukeEl]

I hope they do the battle of the 3 armies which would be cool to see.

Del Toro said he will announce his next project at Comic Con which I believe is next month.
