Might it not just be that they expected her to be in the first film when there were just two but now she will be in the unexpected middle one so they will reissue unser correct film.

That is why Christopher Tolkien I guess after watching the hobbit movie has announced that no more movies will be made on his father's mythology.

The Adventures of Tintin didn't have romance. It also didn't have unnecessary female eye-candy characters either. In fact, they went most of the film focusing on two men and a dog. I fail to see how Tintin, a honest-to-goodness movie could get away with no ridiculous romances or fluff, but The Hobbit can't.

That seems more likely to me. After all, if she does play a major role, they might not be able to write her out now.

I keep seeing Kill the Romantic as the title of this thread. Faked me out more than once.
