Posting this here incase some of you still dont know.

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey will be out at the end of 2012 :( sucks because its so long away, but happy because i miss lord of the rings now :(

But also! theres another film planned for 2013 it's also being filmed at the moment as you know like before they filmed them at the same time.

It will be called...

The Hobbit: There and Back Again :) and i cant wait for that one too!

IMDB says that Frodo and Sam will be in the last one but im not sure.

guessing this is a prequel. loved the books and films that have been released so looking forward to this

Yeah based before the other 3, on other words its all about billbo im glad as it will be fun to see what he got up too.

To clarify, the two films are each one half of the same whole. The book is just being split into two parts.

I'm not sure what to make of the fact that it's being filmed in 3D.

Also there are video diaries being made while they film it which are quite interesting and give a great insight into all the effort that goes into making the films. Don't worry there are no spoilers but you might recognise some of the sets if you've read the book:

So glad Peter Jackson ended up directing The Hobbit films after all. As much as I love Guillermo del Toro, it just wouldn't have been the same.

I need help isnt the first person on this picture the one who played Sean Slater? IMDB doesnt say hes in the film tho.

Also 2nd one is James Nesbitt, didnt know he would be in the film lol.

and the 3rd is Richard Armitage from Spooks? if im correct.

Think all 3 will be dwarfs?

Nvm bout number 1. found this.

"

I am sad to report that Rob Kazinsky, who was cast in the role of Fili, is having to leave The Hobbit and return home, for personal reasons. Rob has been terrific to work with andhis enthusiasm and infectious sense of humour will be missed by all of us.I should say that Rob’s departure will not affect ongoing filming of The Hobbit, nor will it impact work done to date, as we had yet to film much of Fili’s storyline. At the moment we are shooting scenes featuring Bilbo without the Dwarves, which will give us time to find a new Fili. I’ll keep everyone posted with updates as they come.
Cheers,
