They should combine the two into one amazing film.

So ironic that the original trilogy was made against all odds (no big name director, studio had to agree to film three big budget movies at once, no huge stars, and fantasy was not that big in Hollywood at that point), and now the second set of films, despite every reason in the world to make them, keeps finding roadblocks.

Yeah, pretty sad that they keep running into legal issues. Hopefully they can get it resolved soon.

im glad. i don't want the hobbit to be made into movies. i loved the hobbit/lord of the rings when i read them as a kid. then this movie comes along and spoils everything with their gay hobbits sam and frodo love story.

Well now Del Toro has left the project (no sooner than I commented to someone that if this delay lasts any longer Guillermo is gonna walk)
Maybe Jackson will find time to direct it now, but honestly I preferred GDT. Fortunately his design work and contribution to the scripts will apparently be kept.
