Peter Jackson confirms 'Hobbit' will be divided into three movies

"The Hobbit" is about to become a trilogy, director Peter Jackson announced Monday on Facebook.
The move had been rumored last week, but the "Lord of the Rings" auteur confirmed the trilogy, saying that there was more story to tell than could be contained in the originally planned two films. He said the movies will draw on related material in the appendices of "The Lord of the Rings," in addition to using J.R.R. Tolkien's original story.
"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," Jackson wrote.
"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," he added.
The first film in what is now a trilogy, "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" will hit theaters on Dec. 13, 2012, with the second picture, "The Hobbit: There and Back Again," premiering on Dec. 13, 2013. Jackson did not say when the third film will be released.
The films, which are prequels to "The Lord of the Rings," star Martin Freeman as Bilbo Baggins and bring back Ian McKellen as the wizard Gandalf.
"It has been an unexpected journey indeed, and in the words of Professor Tolkien himself, 'a tale that grew in the telling,'" Jackson wrote.

greedy bastard
I can't wait to see Evangeline Lilly ( Kate from the Lost series) as an elf.
Possibly, but if he's going by all the information in the book plus the appendices (which tells about the time in between The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, and also gives more info about what went down with Gandalf when he wasn't with Bilbo and the Dwarves), that's a ton of stuff that couldn't possibly be told in 2 movies. He's probably shaved it down some so that it could fill 3.greedy bastard

i guess i don't know whether to be excited or not
Another trilogy to sit through... I dunno either. But, in my opinion, Jackson did a great job with LOTR. I was looking forward to the Hobbit. But if I gotta sit through two movies before I get to see Smaug...

Seems like a good idea to me. If you bear in mind that even the Special extended edition of the Lord of the Rings movies (roughly 12 hours' worth) left out quite a lot of interesting plot elements and they could easily have filled two extra movies with that stuff, there's reason to hope that three two-hour flicks based on the Hobbit and some of the extra stuff won't get boring.
I love these movies and have read all of the books. He could make a 5 movie trilogy and I'd watch them all back to back
5 movie trilogy?
