Attention geeks: You have approximately 18 months to get patch up that Gandalf outfit you last wore in 2003 for the premiere of Return of the King. The first part of Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit (titled The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey) will be released next December, followed by The Hobbit: There and Back Again in December 2013. I remain curious as to how Jackson and his fellow writers came up with enough material for two movies, much less the inevitable Special Edition Blu-Ray sets that will be released in due time. I’m still a little disappointed that I won’t get to see Guillermo del Toro’s vision of Middle Earth, but I’m sure Jackson will bring his usual flair for the epic to the proceedings.
