The Hobbit director Peter Jackson reveals to fan event his next project is a Middle Earth blooper reel Bilbo Baggins journeys with the Wizard Gandalf and thirteen Dwarves on an epic quest. In cinemas, Boxing Day. PETER Jackson has promised a Middle Earth blooper reel once his Hobbit trilogy is complete. "A lot of the bloopers are very, very funny," the barefoot director told fans during a worldwide fan event streamed live on YouTube today. Cast members Richard Armitage, Orlando Bloom, Luke Evans, Evangeline Lilly, Lee Pace and Andy Serkis joined the fan-based Q & A from satellite-linked cinemas across four host cities - Los Angeles, New York, London and Wellington.

Ian McKellen doesn't find it funny when he makes mistakes but everyone else does. Jackson said there was also plenty footage of the many pranks and practical jokes carried out on set while the cameras were rolling. But he warned that some of the picture quality might be poor, since the early Lord of the Rings bloopers would be on video. Jackson's assiduous behind-the-scenes documentation of his massive fantasy project has paid almost as much attention to detail as the films themselves. During the Q & A, Jackson admitted that there were times when his complementary blog actually got in the way of the main game. Sometimes I think it was slowing the shoot down.
