The Hobbit now officially a trilogy

Jul 31, 2012 18:56

Yup, there's going to be THREE Hobbit films. Not many facts known yet, except a planned SUMMER 2014 release for the third and it doesn't affect the release dates of the first two. It's not the famous "bridge movie" that was planned years ago, rather they're just stretching their TH + LOTR appendices + non canonical inventions stuff over three films instead of two. Of course they just wrapped the principal photography (although word on the ~street in Welly is that the Battle of Five Armies hasn't been filmed yet...) so it will be interesting to see how the production goes from here (anyone who hasn't watched the production diaries that PJ has posted, run over to YouTube, they. are. brilliant.) I just hope whatever changes this will mean for film 1 won't result in the kind of hasty editing we saw for the theatrical ROTK.

What are your thoughts ontd_lotr? What are our feelings?
