My Precious
As everybody and their left aunt has reported, Peter Jackson is once more involved in the filming of The Hobbit. No decision yet as to who will direct, but obviously I'm holding out for PJ his own bad self.
Now then. Sir Ian Holm as Bilbo; Sir Ian McKellan as Gandalf; Andy Serkis as Gollum; Hugo Weaving as Elrond; most likely John Rhys-Davies as Gloin (as in Gimli Son Of). Who else would you cast? We've got a bunch of dwarves, three trolls, Beorn, the Elven King, Bard, the Master of Laketown, and probably Dain. Most specifically, who for Thorin and the voice of Smaug?
