They were going to cut a lot *spoilers* [In reply to] Can't Post
I recall reading somewhere that the original endpoint of Movie 1 was going to be the barrels escape from Mirkwood. Movie 1 with that added back, would be impossibly long. They'd have had to cut considerable amounts of what we saw, to bring it under 3 hours and still end it there. But now Movie 2 inherits all those scenes (Beorn, Mirkwood, the spiders, the Elves, the barrel escape, Thrain flashback?).
