He just went apeshit on the Hobbit because of the technology and the fact that nowadays, you have to have a 3 movie epic thing rather than just tell a good story.
Bleh.

At Comic Con, Jackson revealed the original pitch was a stand alone Hobbit, and if it did well, a two movie Lord of the Rings. It was actually the producers that told Jackson he has a three part movie in LotR, he originally was going with the two movies.
I could care less. I love the movies. I prefer the extended editions on disc. I can understand why some don't, but I love seeing the interpretation of the works come to life and I'm glad they decided to open up the appendices. Did the first movie drag in parts? Yes. But, not so much that it really irks me.
