In response to "It's really one big nine hour movie cut into three parts. nm" by Dignan

agreed and done masterfully for the most part.

there are quibbles with 2's editing perhaps but given the material I understand it. People pick on the multiple endings of 3 but seriously, read the book - you assholes dodged a bullet.

All of them make me sad for what they did to Hobbit which could have made a single stellar movie. But again, $3 billion is better than $1 billion.

    - When did they decide on three movies? Before or after del Toro left? -- nm - Roger More Aug 22, 15:28 3

        It was always intended to be two parts. I didn't know that. - Dignan Aug 22, 15:36 1
        
        I thought the initial intent was just one but that it quickly turned into 2... - Mel Profit Aug 22, 15:51
- And it shows. So disappointing. -- nm - amoxy Aug 22, 15:16
