I didn't care for the majority of the CGI I saw in the first Hobbit movie, and while I didn't see anything glaring in that trailer, I'm not really confident that the CGI quality will be any better.

It's kind of odd considering how nice Gollum still looks when watching LOTR...not sure why they couldn't achieve that level of quality with The Hobbit.

P.S. There are many more books on middle earth about the whole saga. You should go read them before declaring The Hobbit as the worst.
They don't have the rights to the Untold tales or the Similiarion. The Hobbit should be 1 of 2 movies. Not 1 of 3.

I was happy when the Hobbit got extended to three movies. Why would this bother you at all? The more the better.

I'm pretty sure if WB made a new Harry Potter not based on any novel, Potter fans wouldn't rage at the idea. After a little while the studio side gets a sort of authority with the movie universe and they should be allowed to further interpret things. This includes a new movie.

I haven't seen it yet, but I'm not particularly happy about the extension as it smacks of money-grabbing. If the reason to do something is to try to eke out more cash then it's not a good enough reason in my opinion. Guillermo del Toro dropping from the project and then this extension to 3 films was a problem for me, because both suggest undue marketing influence on the artistic direction, but I'll still go see this.

I felt the same way. I still do. Reeks of money grab.

But after seeing part 1 so far I wasn't "let down". Felt they did a good job of making it a good flick and 3 parts so if the next two are as good I think it's just as greats a trilogy as Lotr

“I feel thin, sort of stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread.” Bilbo. If they can buy the rights to the other books make them all. I'd pay to see them all as long as Peter Jackson still directs them.

As for Potter the story is over unless J.K. Rowling says it isn't. It wouldn't be a studio choice at all. Fans would be pissed if they had another Potter without her involvement since she's still alive. She'd also probably retro-actively give that power to her next of kin also.
