Word around the campfire is:
Guillermo Del Toro is seriously considering using
Tom Waits in
The Hobbit. Probably not as
Bilbo Baggins, or
Gollum, no, no. The rumor mill is all aflame with the non-fact that Mr. Waits will be voicing
Smaug, the dragon (as in big, flying, fire breathing lizard) Antagonist in J.R.R Tolkiens' prequel to the
Lord of the Rings. OK, kittens and cats, let's put this thing in perspective. First, we've got
Peter Jackson, producing and co-writing the screenplay.Awesome. Then, we have
Guillermo Del Toro, directing both movies that will become
The Hobbit. (yeah, cause it's that looong) Now, add in to this boiling pot of crazy fantastic...
TOM FREAKING WAITS! What is going to happen next?! Is
Terry Gilliam going to jump out from behind a dumpster and offer his skills to the project as co-director...maybe
Quentin Tarantino can direct the action sequences and write all the dialog...and while were at it
Del Toro and say,
Rob Zombie could come up with all the monsters and weird things that will come with this movie and give us all the horrible nightmare fodder we could fill our grubby little minds with, with one flick of the wrist. I mean, if were speculating here, why not make this the greatest films of all time! Let's find a spot for the
Cohen Bros. and
Sam Raimi...give
Bruce Campbell a part...let's get this party started! I mean, with the exception of
Pete Jackson and
Del Toro, none of this conjecture is subjected to the banality of truth. But, we can TOTALLY MAKE THIS HAPPEN! Hop to it Hollywood, let's make me happy!
