"Hobbit" star joins in supporting "Hobbit" Pub

The Saul Zaentz Company, which owns the rights to various "Hobbity" things, is suing a pub in England that has been called The Hobbit for 20 years. Stephen Fry, a star in the upcoming Hobbit movie, has spoken out (well, actually Tweeted) in defense of the Pub. The full story is here.

The Bilbo Baggins Pub (which may be even older) in Bossier City, Louisiana better watch out! Lawsuits sometimes seem designed to destroy everything fun in life. Remember when fast food places actually had playgrounds? Plus I've no doubt that Tolkien would appreciate a good pub.
