FANS combing internet sites are not the only people eagerly anticipating a pair of epic fantasy movies based on “The Hobbit”, by J.R.R. Tolkien, that it is planned will start filming this year.

预计今年开拍，改编自J.R.R.托尔金《哈比人历险记》的姊妹篇魔幻史诗电影不仅仅让许多粉丝和互联网网站期待万分，新西兰的旅游业也是如此，他们非常急切地希望当地令人倾倒的原生态美景再次于银屏上展示于百万电影爱好者面前，毕竟距离上次《指环王》(另一部改变自托尔金小说的电影）首部上映已经差不多十年之久了。

If the first Wheel of Time movies are as well-produced as Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy, the series' 15 books could easily become the greatest series of epic fantasy movies yet.

如果第一部《时光之轮》的电影和皮特·杰克森的《指环王》三部曲的制作一样精良，那么这一系列的十五本书将会轻而易举成为奇幻史诗电影的翘楚。
