Rename the Hobbit movies! - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Bêthberry · 11-13-2012, 04:33 PM

The names of the three Hobbit movies have been announced. They are as follows:

"The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey"
"The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug"
"The Hobbit: There and Back Again"

Yes, all well and good nods to The Professor. But I wonder--what could we come up with? Even before we see just the first movie, how might we conceive of these filmic fantasies?

For starters, I offer this (and I hasten to add it isn't of my own devising; having found it elsewhere, I simply had to bring it here.)

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Dwarves
The Lord of the Rings: The Two Wizards
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the Hobbit

...not that I'm cynical about wanting to establish a money-making connection to the previous movies, mind.

"The Hobbit: An Expected Cash Cow"
"The Hobbit: The Desolation of Peter Jackson"
"The Hobbit: Time for More dvd $$$ Again "

I liked PJ's FotR, but after the many mistakes in the
latter two films I am rather skeptical of these (especially after
going from 2 to 3 films).

Rumours that Peter Jackson's remake of "The Dambusters" will be in three parts. Part I, "An Unexpected Journey". Part II, "The Desolation of the Ruhr". Part III, "There and Back Again"
