Pete Jackson NOT directing Hobbit movie?

Liz and Valerie are aghast at the news that Peter Jackson has stated he will not be involved with the film version of The Hobbit until some kind of stupid lawsuit is settled. Lawyers are clearly to blame here.

But alas, there is allegedly a time issue involving limited rights availability, so if the movie doesn't get made now then it might not be made by New Line. MGM is saying that "the matter of Peter Jackson directing the Hobbit films is far from closed" but that sounds like the kind of thing they would say as fans across the world light torches and sharpen sickles. Liz and Valerie are keeping their fingers crossed that all will be well in the end.
