...are easily solved by showing 'parallel' timelines, i.e., introduce Bard early on and show what was going on in Dale during different parts of Bilbo's journey, then merge the two story lines toward the end. As far as film two, some overlap with The Hobbit could also be done - for example, following the tangent of what happens in Gandalf's story line once he leaves the party on the eaves of Mirkwood. The entire story could 'flash back' and pick up as far back in the Appendices as they want to go; all the way back to Gandalf's arrival in Middle-earth, the forming of the White Council, Gandalf meeting Aragorn; there are thousands of years of options. Throw in what Gollum, Sauron and the Witch-king are doing on the side of the 'bad-guys' and I see more than enough material for a second movie. I think interjecting too many of those different events and story lines into a Hobbit movie would destroy the continuity of the book/story as written which is why I suspect the agreement is to contain as much of the Hobbit in one movie as possible.
