This article has the latest news on the on-again-off-again New Line Hobbit project.

Seems Shaye and PJ have been talking quietly, and fences are being mended. PJ won't be directing, but he'll be involved, probably as producer.

Things are looking up!

Interesting news. I wonder whose influence will win out on the look and feel of the movie.

I'd say PJ's influence will be extremely important, since Raimi has already refused to go ahead without his blessing. It sounds to me like Raimi really wants to work with PJ, and since PJ has said he'd like to see what someone else would do with the film as a director, I'd say the combination is ideal. If this goes through I'll be very happy. :)
