Not Bob Shaye, who now is a director of the kid flick &#8220;The Last Mimzy&#8221; and has been in the news for a near-death experience and a Middle-earth mess. Shaye is the controversial studio president of New Line cinema &#8212; the folks who brought you the &#8220;Lord of the Rings&#8221; trilogy. He&#8217;s in a battle of bucks with director Peter Jackson over a proposed &#8220;Hobbit&#8221; film that Jackson wants to do after the studio pays him what he feels is more back-end money for &#8220;Rings,&#8221; while Shaye says he has been paid in full. The bottom line is someone else might direct &#8220;The Hobbit,&#8221; which has fans hopping mad.
