True ... true [In reply to] Can't Post

But which scenes should receive the most amount of screentime?

In film 1, all I can think of is Riddles in the Dark and the spider attack. There's no need to linger at Bag End, or Rivendell or with the eagles. It might make Middle-earth feel small, but it will do ... it's a film!

This is where i initially thought the break was going to be [In reply to] Can't Post

when they announced they were making two films. I think its a good place to end always have. I think it gives more things for film 2 as well.

Saying that i would be surprised it will change from the initial plan of ending with them all escaping on barrels.

I think its more exciting now that we are unsure, something to look forward to rather than knowing everything about the film before it is seen, i am coming around to the three film side just for that, lol.

I think [In reply to] Can't Post

They should spend a lot of time on:

The Shire, a flashback to the demise of Erebor, the troll encounter, Rivendell, Goblin Town, Riddles, and Frying Pan.

The longest sequences out of these should be The Shire, Goblin Town/Riddles, and Frying Pan.

This would really make for a very full and exciting film, if I understand what PJ's doing here...

Though ... if it's been their plan all along to have 3 films, then the film 1 will stay the same Wink. Conspiracy Shocked.

What would your climax be? [In reply to] Can't Post

The Dwarves are rescued by the eagles, and dropped off at Carrock?

I would leave them in the sky [In reply to] Can't Post

Flying, and looking off into the distance, where we see Mirkwood, and way, way out there, the Lonely Mountain...

well [In reply to] Can't Post

But then people will say...ei, why didnt they just drop them at the mountain? Just a 15 minute flight..Crazy

But i disagree with daniel...i still think you might be thinking in terms of book length...

Feel...dont think...use your instincts....let your imagination flow...Wink

The Shire and Rivendell sequences will by far be some of the longest! A lot happens!

Shire:

Pj needs to introduce the shire to the audience in a different way than he did on lotr...establish Bilbo's character, his role as a respectable hobbit within the hobbiton society, Gandalfs arrival, his attempts to kidnapp bilbo XD, the arrival of the dwarves, comedy, dinner, singing, dark business, flashbacks to dwarven history like erebor or dales fall or how thorin put tpgether this particular group of dwarves...

Contract, conversations, the next morning, his encounter with the dwarves, the journey begins, bilbos first travelling experiences with camp fire, horse riding, getting to know the dwarves, travelling through the shire, outskirts of Bree, the weather hills, establishing the bilbo and thorins initial role within the company and theri relationship, the dwarves telling bilbo tales of old....its a lot of stuff before trollshaws...

And, since pj is not good at making short movies Smile

It's the same as the Ring though. [In reply to] Can't Post

The eagles just want to get them to safety, apart from that they don't want much to with the Dwarves. If Galadriel can disappear and re-appear in different places, then she could take the Dwarves with her ... unless it's 1 person per ride.

Good point [In reply to] Can't Post

And thanks!

I am reasonably confident that something along these lines is being planned.
