Peter "Dwarf-Tosser" Jackson

They eviscerated the book by making it an action movie for young people aged 15 to 25. And it seems that The Hobbit will be the same kind of film. … The chasm between the beauty and seriousness of the work, and what it has become, has overwhelmed me. The commercialisation has reduced the aesthetic and philosophical impact of the creation to nothing.
— Christopher Tolkien on the films of The Lord Of The Rings
