I am stoked. The First movie about the Silmarillion is coming at 2018. The titel of the first movie will be: "Ainulindalë" Read here. Official news door Peter Jackson and New Line that the Silmarillion will be made into a series of movies.
It looks like we won't be seeing any of the Hobbit until the end of the year.They were supposed to start shooting in July but it looks like this won't be happening because of MGM's financial problems.
