As far as the HD making EMPIRE look weird, isn't there some setting that had to be flipped on some HDTVs? I know when I go to my father-in-laws house, his HD looks like absolute garbage. Same with my sister-in-laws house. It looks hyper-real, or something. The picture is clear, but seems to play a tad too fast, or something. I can't quite put my finger on it, but it keeps me from ever turning the TV on at their house. I see it on some of the TVs in store like Wal-Mart, where they were obviously set-up by people who have no idea what they are doing. My fanzine all about Rock N Roll: www.sonicruin.com

Carl,my Sony TV has a feature where if i turn it on,it gives the motion a much smoother almost real speed look that i found unsettled alot of guests who came over to watch movies. Everything looked off to them and it really bothered everybody to the point of them being vocal about it. It didn't bother me at all but i turned it off to be a good host.

Jul 26 12 7:59 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	http://www.slashfilm.com/peter-jackson-the-hobbit-trilogy-talks-accelerated/ They just completed the principle shooting and now it sounds like it could changed into a trilogy. This kind of bothers me because I don't want to wait three years to see the whole movie.

Three movies, though, sounds greedy and excessive to me.

Given the addtional information concerning backstory elements to be included, I'm more than happy to see three. My request would be that they be released in a short cycle. Say, Christmas, Memorial Day, Christmas. A three year cycle is two long. Why do I have to waste my time outwitting morons?

Jul 30 12 11:26 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	http://www.aintitcool.com/node/57327 It is only at the end of a shoot that you finally get the chance to sit down and have a look at the film you have made. Recently Fran, Phil and I did just this when we watched for the first time an early cut of the first movie - and a large chunk of the second. We were really pleased with the way the story was coming together, in particular, the strength of the characters and the cast who have brought them to life. All of which gave rise to a simple question: do we take this chance to tell more of the tale? And the answer from our perspective as the filmmakers, and as fans, was an unreserved ‘yes.' We know how much of the story of Bilbo Baggins, the Wizard Gandalf, the Dwarves of Erebor, the rise of the Necromancer, and the Battle of Dol Guldur will remain untold if we do not take this chance. The richness of the story of The Hobbit, as well as some of the related material in the appendices of The Lord of the Rings, allows us to tell the full story of the adventures of Bilbo Baggins and the part he played in the sometimes dangerous, but at all times exciting, history of Middle-earth. So, without further ado and on behalf of New Line Cinema, Warner Bros. Pictures, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Wingnut Films, and the entire cast and crew of “The Hobbit” films, I’d like to announce that two films will become three. It has been an unexpected journey indeed, and in the words of Professor Tolkien himself, "a tale that grew in the telling." Cheers, Peter J My God, what's Bond doing?... I think he's attempting re-entry, sir. http://www.eccentric-cinema.com/ Cole's Comics: All About Jack Cole http://colescomics.blogspot.com/

Jul 30 12 3:20 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	That battle at Helm's deep is still breathtaking for me. All those marching orcs and Legolas firing at the crazy-looking orc with the torch. The trailer looked great and I look forward to these three new films. I actually liked the Hobbit more as a kid. It was a more straightforward story, and this looks like tons of fun, yet again. I hope Peter can do what George and Steven could not, and that is to further their amazing original trilogies with more stories of the same quality.

Jul 31 12 10:51 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I have to wonder how you just "sit down and have a look at the film you made" and decide you have three movies instead of the two you scripted and shot. I would hope the third movie is a bit more planned out than that. I'm a huge Peter Jackson fan going back to Feebles and Dead Alive, but King Kong's story problems made me wonder for the first time if he'd lost it. I wonder if he had two three-hour-movies that became three two-hour-movies, or if he actually shot so much footage he's got enough for three three hour movies? A perfect Monster has no end...

Aug 1 12 11:01 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Cometh the naysayer: 3 films!!! Really?!! This shorter, delightful book (J.R.R.'s most entertaining, IMO) would be best served as as single, 95 minute, family friendly movie. The way Peter Jackson works, it will probably take them an entire film to exit the Shire. I'm happy w/the Rankin-Bass cartoon, but I hope the new films will please those of you looking forward to them. Peace, PAUL
