Hobbit movies... maybe in 3D after all?

*Emmie* · 03-01-2010, 09:43 PM

There are now "discussions" about it, apparently - though who knows if they will ever come to anything.

I dont know about 3D, it could work :S

Lanyare · 03-15-2010, 06:38 PM

I'd still prefer them to make an original 2D movie, if only because it'd be more in line with the Trilogy.
But I guess, since there have been quite some 3D-movies turned out to be a big success, money's talking. And THAT is a pity, really.

*Emmie* · 03-15-2010, 09:26 PM

That's the way I've felt for quite a while, too: it should match the trilogy, and if 3D wasn't needed then there's no reason it is now. It should match the trilogy. Hopefully Guillermo del Toro will come to the same decision, since nothing has been decided yet.

It's quite possibly not true, since plenty of similar false reports have come out in the past, and I really hope that's the case. I'm skeptical about the 3D thing in the first place, but much more so if it means not filming until "at least" October.

I sincerely hope it's a false rumour... But, if it should prove to be true, I guess I was right when I said that money's talking... Judging from the tone of the article, at least.

*Emmie* · 03-19-2010, 08:31 PM

Yeah.

I'm still pretty confused, though, because since then TORn has posted another article that says the shoot was pushed to July. But I'm not sure whether to believe that either, because the BBC article they link as a source says "The second [film] will be an original story focusing on the 60 years between the book and the beginning of the Rings trilogy." And we know that idea has been scrapped.

All we can do is sit back, relax and wait for the information to slowly creep into our view. Then we POUNCE and never let it go! PRECIOUS WILL BE OURS! OURS!

Lanyare · 03-21-2010, 11:19 AM

Hehe, I think I might just sit back and wait until the movies are actually released, and let myself be surprised when I go see them. That's the only way to finally know for sure what they've made of it, after all.

Soo I was looking at theonering, everyones favorite news source, and came across this article... http://www.deadline.com/print-post/?...=500&width=750

*sighs*

I really don't know what to say except that I will just have to do as Sam says, and sit back and hope for the best as the information slowly trickles out...
