I really hope del Toro does The Hobbit so Sam Raimi can continue with Spider-Man.
And whyyyyyy is Channing Tatum in Public Enemies? He sticks out like a sore thumb amongst all the amazing actors in the rest of the cast. He cannot act, IMO.

I can't believe they want to make a series based on such an ugly, insulting movie as
Crash.
2Marion Cotillard seems perfectly cast in Public Enemies. Love the producer-director combo for The Hobbit.
3The FCC must be B-O-R-E-D!
4I loved Pan's Labyrinth, so I'm happy with the directing choice.
5ever exciting! the hobbit was such a good book, i am looking forward to see it as a movie.
6Oh come on! A TV Show of Crash???
7erm... delayedmuch? The dancing show sounds somewhat interesting, although I probably won't watch. I haven't watched Lifetime in ages.
8Yay Hobbit!
9I really hope Del Toro gets the director's seat. He'll capture the tone of the book very, very well. I don't want Sam Raimi anywhere near the film.
