I hate the thought that it will be in 3-D, for multiple reasons. 1. I want these movies to be classics, not gimmicks. 3-D is nothing more than a gimmick, not the wave of the future. 2. I won't pay the extra money, and it's just greed on their part to ask me to. 3. Like many other people, I can barely watch a movie in 2-D without coming out with a terrible headache. 3-D is not physically possible for me.
My only consolation in this situation is that I'm not nearly as excited about The Hobbit as I was about LOTR. I've never managed to read this one all the way through; it was not the touchstone book for me that LOTR was. If they get Martin Freeman for Bilbo, I'll definitely see it when it comes out on disc, but I don't feel I'm going to be missing out on anything very important.
