The clash happened because &#8220;one of us has gotten poor counsel,&#8221; Shaye said, without elaborating. Co-chief Michael Lynne struck a more upbeat note. &#8220;We do want to settle our dispute and I think we will.&#8221; A &#8220;Hobbit&#8221; pic is still in the plans, both execs were coy about reports that Sam Raimi is being lined up to direct. &#8220;There&#8217;s never been any announcement,&#8221; Lynne said. &#8220;Like a lot of people, he might,&#8221; Shaye added.
