Sam Riami to direct " The Hobbit "

[devilscallmedad]

Some may remember after the fallout of Peter Jackson New line and MGM began courting other directors to take the project. One that apparently was asked was Sam Raimi. The la times today said something to make it seem like Raimi might have taken it:

In a move that would have ramifications for several major multi-nationals, and millions of fans, "Spider-Man" maestro Sam Raimi has been telling associates, as well as his corporate masters at Sony, that he is thinking of directing "The Hobbit," the prequel to J.R.R. Tolkien's masterwork, "The Lord of the Rings." At least two top-level insiders – who declined to be named -- have heard the words out of the director's mouth.

Evil dead is not's even a film, calling it a film is disrespect to all films ever made. Its a craptastic zombie porn.

as i already said it doesn't count as cinema, it counts as porn. And besides zombie porn ain't my taste i much prefer humans.

Lord of the Rings rules the oscars tell the tale. They should have asked Peter Jackson to make the movie. But they had some kind of row.
