Last week, actor Sir Ian McKellen took control of the Twitter account of The Hobbit and was pretty straight-forward about his thoughts on religion:

RT @yariwari: @thehobbitmovie #askgandalf I have always compared Gandalf with God, do you think it’s an apt comparison?

I don’t believe in God, but I know Gandalf exists.

Well put, sir.

(Side Note: Anyone else re-reading The Hobbit? Anyone else super-excited? Just me? Cool, man!)
