Chisme Del Cine: Guillermo del Toro's The Hobbit

What’s the trick to directing one of the most anticipated movies in Hollywood? “Lose weight man, because there is no way you are going to survive it that fat.” That was the “Lord of the Rings” director Peter Jackson’s advice to Guillermo del Toro. The Mexican native is set to direct “The Hobbit," a film based on that other middle earth book, and it looks like he's going to have to lay off the tacos-al-pastor for a while. The movie hasn’t even started shooting yet and according to IMDB it won’t hit theatres until 2011. So if you're a superfan that's gonna cut back on the munchies for a while in support of Toro’s work, I would think twice before making that decision. I mean we all love Guillermo’s work, and I know a lot of people really love “The Hobbit"...but sit back y buen provecho. We're going to have a long wait ahead of us, and Guillermo has a long relationship with the South Beach Diet ahead of him!
