The Hobbit: Peter Jackson extends the sauce ...

We know that Peter Jackson doesn't like to do things by halves. He prefers to do them in three thirds ... And so the film in two parts The Hobbit will become a trilogy, as confirmed by Peter Jackson himself on his facebook page.

The first opus (The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey) will be released in December 2012, the second (The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies) in December 2013 and the third is announced for summer 2014. Contrary to what may have been said at the start, the third part will not bridge the gap with the trilogy Lord of the Rings but will be centered like the first two parts on the story developed by Tolkien in The Hobbit. It would simply be a question of changing the hyphenation points of the first two opus to integrate the third epiosde whose title is not yet known in the announced trilogy.

Does this mean that we will be entitled to even more LEGO sets based on this new trilogy? No doubt that yes, LEGO will undoubtedly take advantage of it, like the director, to dilute its production on this theme according to the releases to the cinema then in Blu-ray / DVD.
