It’s rumored since The Return of The King movie that Peter Jackson is working in another movie based in J.R.R Tolkien’s story: The Hobbit.

There is a lot of geeks that they are thinking right now: c’mon tell me the release date of the movie!! I will say, you got to be kiddin’!! The [...]
The books in the Foundation’s Series are seven novels, written by Issac Asimov. The saga is considered a masterpiece of the sci fiction literature (at least the original trilogy).
