Peter Jackson is very interested in making a Hobbit film. He just has one roadblock....Christopher Tolkien. Christopher still holds the rights for any future Hobbit property. He simply thinks that The Hobbit wouldn't translate well to the big screen (I tell him watch Lord of the Rings ). The only reason we have the Lord of the Rings series is because J.R.R Tolkien sold the rights to the movies before his death (for a measly 10,000 pounds). Personally I would love to see Smaug in the theater.
