To be enjoyed by fathers and sons, moms and daughters? What about babysitters and grandparents? I got a feeling we're not in Jackson's Shire anymore Toto.

Sounds like he really respects the source material alot. I'm glad he was chosen. Out of all the other directors (other than Jackson) to do this movie I think del Toro will do a great job. I'm looking forward to it.
