But what of The Hobbit ? Does McK know anything more than we do? "I asked all I met at WETA when The Hobbit starts shooting. Reply? “You tell us.'" Oh.
In other Twitter news, Jonathan Ross ( http://twitter.com/Wossy ) doesn't like DC's new plans ("I know there are perhaps more important things to fret over, but I HATE Wonder Woman's new outfit.
