It just comes down to a simple question... Do we want to see "The Hobbit," or do we want to see Peter Jackson's "interpretation" of it? Pete's LOTR was simply that, his LOTR, not Tolkien's. I guess it's okay if he adds to The Hobbit and stretches it into two films, they will doubtless be good movies, but they won't be J.R.R Tolkien's "The Hobbit."
