I would be sooo happy if this happened, assuming quality is maintained.In b4 total confusion about "You haven't aged a day", Bilbo being 50 at the time, Frodo 33, what's mentioned and not mentioned in the book vs the movie and "But that's just as silly as asking How did Gandalf get his first staff" | ||

Or just one long film :p last info was the it will be in 2 parts, however, the first part would be The Hobbit, and the second part would be what happened between The Hobbit and LOTR but we will see, i'm exited | ||

I believe (I'm in class right now, but I'll check when I get home) Fellowship had 30 minutes extra, Two Towers had 45 minutes extra, and Return of the King had 1 hour of extra footage, plus all the bonus content and other crap. This is just me relying on memory though, as I haven't actually popped them in my DVD player for like 3 years. Time to remedy that + read the books again in preparation for this! | ||

Jackson went onto claim that the difference between 24 and 48 fps is "significant", likening the technological evolution to when "vinyl records were supplanted by digital CDs". Anyone else find this line funny? As I recall vinyl records actually had superior audio quality to CD's which were compressed to shit. | ||

That was actually the first thing i thought of when i read that. Really was a bad metaphor to make. Should have used mp3 to FLAC or something, but i guess that isn't as widely known or something. I've listened to Roy Buchanan on vinyl and then on FLAC, through the same sound system, and it really couldn't compare. Hope that quote doesn't make people hold back from converting though. I could do with less eye strain.  | ||

I guess Jackson has a lot of old and well-played vinyls PS: edit to above poster, a mint condition vinyl of perfect quality (or any mint analog recording) is even better than a FLAC recording, or any digital recording. Not that we'd be able to tell the difference. Maybe dogs can. | ||

I mean, even if you look past the things they unfortunately had to change to fit everything into a movie (grey havens not making much sense if you look at the movie alone and the shire being perfectly ok when they get back), I thought some of Jackson's decisions made it the worst of the 3 by far. Gimli and Legolas were pretty much reduced to comic relief, he tried to fit in battles wherever he could just to have more action (like the battle for Osgiliath, which doesn't even appear in the book) and he completely butchered Faramir's character. Ah well, LotR's one of my favourite childhood books, so I guess I'm going to look at the movies differently than if you've never read the books themselves. | ||
