extremely excited for this.. talked about my hopes and dreams for a hobbit movie after seeing fellowship.. and it looks like they will NOT disappoint. the hobbit is a much better story then lotr, imo.. so I think this will be the most anticipated movie(s) of the last 10 years for me. Jackson does tolkien so much damn justice.. i wish the same approach to such important literature was taken in movies these days.
bring back weapon of choice for hots!

I am excited...but the only low point will likely be smeegol. I hope they get over his one-trick pony "precious" act quickly. It got really irritating after a while. But I know audiences everywhere seem to love it. So I'm probably going to be forced to watch 20 minutes of smeegol. UGHHH

I really really REALLY don't want to watch them because of the 3 part travesty they are making out of it. Tell the whole story, all cool, but 70 pages per movie? 3? 1h30 movies?
Sorry, rather have one good old 4 hour movie like The Two Towers.

I suggest you keep yourself isolated from the rest of the world until the 3rd movie comes to video so you can buy the giftset and watch your 4 and 1/2 hour long movie.

Can't wait to watch. I'm writing the thesis now and promised myself to watch the Hobbit movie when I write an introduction

I highly doubt the movies are going to be 1hr30min. Heck michael bay explosion movies are longer. LotR movies were freaking 3-4hr long. 4hours way too long for a movie imo.

Rotten tomatoes says its 2hr45min. That sounds more like a LotR movie we know to love.

Not sure where you're getting your bad information.

The good thing is, Peter Jackson's not doing what you say he's doing with the movies. If he was, I might not be so excited for them, either.

If you've ever read the Hobbit and the LOTR, and looked through the appendices at the end of LOTR, you'll find there are some freaking awesome stories leading up to the Hobbit, as well as some cool fillers that happen between the Hobbit and LOTR. Also, while the Hobbit is going on, there are other events leading up to LOTR that happen at the same time, chronologically - but Tolkien didn't want to include those darker scenes in the middle of his children's book. The good news is, Jackson is taking some of those appendices and showing them in the movie as part of the story - because, in the context of the LOTR trilogy, they fit right in.

I'm so EXCITED to see that it's not only the Hobbit that's going to be shown on the screen, but a lot of Tolkien's extra material, as well. This DEFINITELY justifies three movies, and I'm so so so looking forward to seeing all of it in 48 FPS glory :D Even if it makes my head spin, it's worth it to see the Hobbit!

Will wait till the weekend and try to go with my brother. We are Tolkien fans for a long time (well, he longer than me).
He had almost all books including Silmarillion and The Book of Lost Tales.
While I never got into Lost Tales I loved Silmarillion read it so many times.

Not keen with 3 films for the Hobbit and not really expecting too much, but soooo looking forward for some strange reason. And first film almost 3 hours? Wow. Not decided yet it going into 3D or normal.

All you guys who are worried about it being 3 films need to have some faith in Peter Jackson. He only gave us the greatest trilogy ever made! Dude knows how to make movies.

Difference is that Lord of the Rings had 3 times the pages. Ofc it was shortend hence the "extended" and "special extended" and what not. They could so integrate things out of the book that fell short (and ofc sell the same DVD several times ^^).

Really curious how it works out with the Hobbit, but imo it´s too streched out for such a book. I´ll be glad I´m wrong.
