    yikes ... not sure if i'm a fan of this extension ... seems like strictly a cash grab and wb's maintaining a franchise title until something else comes along ...

    saw this early today too. does this mean no extended cut bluray release? i really dont like the idea of 3 movies, 2 seemed perfect. 3 feels like it might drag on too much or too much was created that wasnt in the books...

    They are going to have to make a lot of stuff up to turn this into three movies. I was seeing it as a stretch to even split it into two movies. The Hobbit is a very short read in comparison to Lord of the Rings.

    If Peter Jackson wasn't involved, I would be highly suspicious of this move.

    I figure each movie will probably make around $2B in tickets, dvds, extended cut blu rays, etc.

    Hopefully they'll at least release them quickly though and not years apart. We wouldnt want to keep BinauralJam waiting too long with his stogies and beer. 8-)

    "We know how much of the story of Bilbo Baggins, the Wizard Gandalf, the Dwarves of Erebor, the rise of the Necromancer, and the Battle of Dol Guldur will remain untold if we do not take this chance," Jackson wrote

    Well at least he is going into some of the other history and stories. We'll see.

    Interesting, but I wonder if all that extra stuff will be back stories? And might water down the main Hobbit story.

    I doubt that The Simarillion or Children of Hurin would work as movies. Althought there are some interesting stories in them.....

    Yikes, and with a Star wars marathon, you don't even have enough time to get a good buzz before Jar-jar is making you wish you had some mushrooms. :shifty:
