Re: The Hobbit
What of the rumours of Ian McKellan and Christopher Lee returning as Gandalf and Saruman? Any truth to that?

Re: The Hobbit
I sincerely hope that the rumors regarding the splitting of The Hobbit into 3 parts is unfounded. I think it would be a travesty to the extreme. It's bad enough for the impatient that it's going to be in two parts (2 years), making us wait 3 years to see the whole movie would royally piss me off. While taking the additional time to flesh out the extravaganza over 2 movies would give Jackson a chance to do the movie as much justice as he did with LOTR (and ultimately be more satisfying to people like me), doing so over 3 seems more like abuse to me. -kd5-

It's hard to say, since the originating news article is in Italian. However, it may be like the Podracer glasses for Star Wars Ep 1 where select theaters "gave away" them to people attending the 3D screenings.
Avengers had similar custom glasses, but those cost an additional $5:

Re: The Hobbit
Ah, OK, thanks. I was curious if there was going to be some kind of contest for them, or if it would just be up to theater chains to choose to give them away.

Re: The Hobbit
That would make sense as they were made to look like the ones Harry wore.
But those ones for Hobbit? WTF? i'm just glad they're "compatible with passive 3d tvs, monitors, and laptops"; just like the ones the ancient races of Middle Earth had.

Re: The Hobbit
The quotes were posts 1307 and 1327, both made on 7/30, and yours was post 1381, so you would've had to have read the previous 53 posts, about two pages and about two days worth of posts. I'm not sure it's an unreasonable expectation that you've read at least a few days worth of recent posts before commenting in a 5 year old thread.

Both of you can bite me. -kd5-
