We suspected this might have to be the case, what with Peter Jackson recently deciding to extend THE HOBBIT movies from a two-parter to a trilogy, there would have to be a retooling of the titles. So now we have a new branding for Part 2, with the subtitle THERE AND BACK AGAIN moved to Part 3. Here’s the new title and release date info for you to cut out and keep…
THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY – December 14th 2012
THE HOBBIT: THE DESOLATION OF SMAUG – December 13th 2013
THE HOBBIT: THERE AND BACK AGAIN – July 18th 2014
So there you have it. THE DESOLATION OF SMAUG sure is a pretty cool title, no complaints there, but given these jaunts to Middle Earth have become such a staple of Winter viewing, I'm still a tad skeptical on how well it will play in the Summer time. They're just so darn Christmas-y, aren't they! Ok, so maybe I'm alone on that one...
