'The Hobbit' to be two movies
Apr. 17th, 2009 08:28 pmI've just seen this at Theonering.net. http://www.empireonline.com/news/story.asp?NID=24610
So the whole of 'The Hobbit' is going to span the two proposed movies. My first reaction to this news was regret that there would be no reprisal of Viggo as Aragorn [at least, in this context, I hope there won't be]. But, although that is disappointing in itself, I really don't think stretching a book that is half the size of FOTR over two movies is the greatest of ideas. Only time will tell, I guess.
