^ my LED TV hasn't got 3D :(
agree though - Avatar worked well but I like a plain old flat film me.

maybe MGM should sell the rights so this film can get made already.

Looks good. Looks pretty much as I expected, a lot like Fellowship, but with more dwarves.

I want to see The Children of Hurin made into a movie.

Looks kind of underwhelming to be honest. All the same characters, but less story, drama and interesting settings compared to LOTR.

LotR sucked so much it looked like a well made TV drama ...with no drama though.

No real news here, but when else are you going to see Gandalf (Ian McKellen) in 3D glasses? Here is he on the set of The Hobbit--presumably checking out footage they've shot--in a photo taken by Peter Jackson in Wellington.

The 3rd film will be 2.5 hours of Smaug sleeping in 3D. I'll still watch.

Hobbit Explosion Injures Two Crew Members
Paramedics were called to Peter Jackson’s New Zealand studio Tuesday morning following an explosion that injured two men working on the director’s $500 million Hobbit production.

Shooting at 24fps with a 180' shutter angle is the same as 48fps at 360' angle. They both expose the film for 1/48th of a second, the main difference is that at 24fps you "blank out" for 1/48th between frames... the motion blur is the same however, you just get "all" the frames instead of 1 out of 2.
That being said, projectors in cinemas are usually projecting at 48fps, pulled up from the original 24fps stock... so don't worry about the look of this one, if anything, it's going to be Peter Jackson's aesthetic choices that will make this ugly and not the technology.

Now can we get back to talking about the scourge that is crushed blacks?

Ooh, that looks teh gorjos.
Can't really be arsed with the story (BURN HIM!) but I can't wait to watch that in super HD 2D at the cinema.

I guess the danger is that it ends up looking like a bunch of people acting out The Hobbit at a medieval fair instead of a real movie.
