Okay, whoever's got the Hobbit voodoo doll needs to put it away now. Enough is enough. This production has had enough bad luck and delay for a lifetime and it hasn't even started shooting yet.
Director Peter Jackson was admitted to hospital yesterday, where he underwent emergency surgery for a perforated ulcer. The condition is caused when an ulcer burns completely through the stomach wall, allowing food and acid to pass into the abdominal cavity causing extreme pain and extreme risk of infection. Thankfully the surgery went well and Jackson is expected to make a full and quick recovery.
Production on The Hobbit is expected to experience a slight delay as a result, but only a matter of a few days rather than weeks or months.

Is this cause and effect...All this Hobbit nonsense in a film that is wholly unnecessary other than a $$ generator for everyone, perhaps the Ulcer a result of all the money/legal wrangling!
(I'm being facetious, but only a little)
