Even when it's good news it's bad news: Entertainment Weekly reports that New Line Cinema and Peter Jackson may have begun to reconcile (fantastic news) and that Jackson hopes to make two movies (no worries there), one The Hobbit in its entirety (wait, what?) and the other "filling in the story arc between the end of The Hobbit and the beginning of Rings" (WTFJackson?).
This is pretty close to sacrilege. If Jackson wants to retroactively ruin his first three movies, why not film a sequel with the original cast—Return of the Return of the King—and be done with it?
Has no one learned what George Lucas has to teach us? Via Slashdot.
