Anticipation Sky High
Peter Jackson’s film adaptation of JR Tolkien’s classic The Hobbit “is already one of the most talked about before shooting,” according to Christopher Wright writing for the site Film Industry Network. “Controversy surrounded the pre-production of the film from a feud between unions and Government, to racism during the casting process. With the countless stories surrounding its production, it seems the film has had more buzz than a major movie after its release. The Lord of the Rings franchise broke Box Office records and set a new standard for the word ‘epic’, but with anticipation sky high for The Hobbit, it would seem despite the ongoing issues facing the production, it will be a huge success.”
