Just remember that whatever happens can only be what’s mentioned in the Hobbit, because that’s the only book that has been optioned. So fighting the necromancer makes more sense.

we know that Gandalf and Aragorn spent a good bit of that time in search for Golum.

and Golum was tortured in Minas Morgul…

I don’t have my copy of the book in my hand right now, but isn’t that in the Appendices?

not that I’m saying there’s enough material for a 2nd film there.

I really hope they don’t pull another re-write like with the Two Towers (It was my favorite of the books, and least favorite of the films because of the unnecessary changes).

That’s really odd they’d make a movie to bridge “The Hobbit” and “LOTR.” Wonder if it was Jackson’s idea or the studios.

If the “60-year gap” story is true, then the good news is that “The Hobbit” won’t be like Jackson’s “King Kong,” which I felt was a very good 90-120 minute movie that had been crammed into 3 hours.

The bad news is that the reason why I didn’t like “The Two Towers” much wasn’t because they shifted Helm’s Deep to be the climax of the movie. It was because that change left a big hole in the middle of the movie, and they filled up the time with a bunch of made-up stuff, all of which really sucked compared to the original material. Now it sounds like “Hobbit Part 2″ is going to be an entire movie of made-up stuff. Hmmm.

The theory I’ve heard is that the two movies will mingle the tale of the Hobbit with Gandalf’s other mission, in which the White Council drives the Necromancer from Mirkwood. With the way they played around with the timeline as it is, this could work quite well… balancing out the battle of the Five Armies in northern Mirkwood with the White Council/Necromancer war in the south, which could be expanded into quite an interesting battle, with rangers and elves fighting goblins… and given the timeframe in the truncated timeline, a young Aragorn could even make an appearance!

Scott,

No, it’s pretty clear that it’s supposed to bridge the 60 year gap. Splitting the Hobbit into two parts won’t do that.

Heidi,

Funny you mention fan fiction. I dubbed the sequel as sounding much like cinematic fan fic (and thus not interesting to me) on another site.

I completely agree that it’s a silly notion.

As to the Silmarillion material, my recollection is that New Line doesn’t hold the rights to that. IIRC, in fact, I think the Tolkien estate haven’t sold the rights and probably won’t be doing so any time in the next couple of decades at least.
