Has anyone actually made it from cover to cover, through this thing? I'd have better luck trying to read War and Peace.

Uh, no.

Which is why I'm very glad Peter Jackson is including information drawn from The Similarion in The Hobbit Trilogy. We'll get to enjoy the story without having to actually read it Wink

Omgeeee...I thought I was the only one that felt this way! I have tried several times without success to finish this book but honestly I get lost every time! I feel like I need to take notes as I go along! Rolling Eyes

Alaryah, you're definitely not alone. This book was required reading when I was at university, more than three quarters of the class failed exames that semester and that was with notes.

Wow that is insane but I can totally see that happening. I too am happy that PJ is extending The Hobbit and helping the Similarion challenged folks like myself understand it better! Wink

Nicely put. As it stands it's going to be two full-length feature films, so it doesn't sound like he's going to be skimming.

Really I thought I saw something on FB where PJ said it would be turned into a trilogy because of all the added information that would be in it. I am skeptical it needs that many movies but I'm not against it. I say the more the merrier so bring it! bounce

I know I saw something in one of Peter Jackson's video blogs that it going to be only two movies. But that might have been an old blog and it's ended up being three. I'll see if I can find the blog episode and post it here, or I should say there as it would be more fitting in The Hobbit thread. Razz

I found it Dot! The information about it turning into a trilogy but I will go back and post it in The Hobbit Movie thread. Hmmm...or do you think we should start a thread for each movie here in this area?

I think it might be more fitting in a Hobbit thread of some kind, but whether the one in the movie area or a new one here is up to you. This is your corner of Kore, you lucky lady, you're boss here. Very Happy
