SAN DIEGO (AP) - If respond to "The Hobbit " video at Comic-Con is any sign, Chris Fitzgibbons has another several of blockbusters on his arms.
The audience joining Jackson's "Hobbit" review at the fan meeting Sunday went crazy over a 12-minute fishing reel the film maker and his co-workers tested.


Broken into two movies, "The Hobbit: An Surprising Journey" and "The Hobbit : There and Returning Again," the 3-D legendary is Jackson's prequel to his "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, whose ending won 11 Academia Prizes, such as best image and film director.

"An Surprising Journey" comes in cinemas Dec. 14, with "There and Returning Again" following in Dec 2013.

The movies are depending on J.R.R. Tolkien's prequel novel, chronicling how small hobbit Bilbo Baggins (Martin Freeman) obtained the band of energy that causes all the fuss in "The Master of the Jewelry," Jackson's three-part variation of Tolkien's dream tale.

Along with  Fitzgibbons and Freeman, "The Hobbit" section at Comic-Con presented "Lord of the Rings" co-stars Ian McKellen, who reprises his aspect as the master Gandalf, and Andrew Serkis, who has returned as turned ring-keeper Gollum. Also on side was Rich Armitage, who performs the small Thorin Oakenshield.

Jackson revealed 12 moments of video that involved a chillingly comedian return between Bilbo and Gollum; a soft time between McKellen's Gandalf and Cate Blanchett, reprising her aspect as elf full Galadriel; and the critical time when Bilbo finds the band.

A shock visitor was Elijah Wooden, who appeared as hobbit Frodo Baggins in "The Master of the Jewelry."

Freeman said he never sensed anxious as a starter to Jackson's group.

"Obviously, you can't really take violence or stress to perform with you, because you won't do your best perform," Freeman said. "And you won't do your best enjoying, which is an actor's job."

Jackson taken "The Hobbit" in 3-D and at 48 supports a second, twice the amount that has been the conventional since the Twenties. The higher shape amount allows for higher visible quality, though it needs expensive improvements to electronic projectors for film cinema displaying movies at that amount.

At the Movies Con cinema master's meeting in Apr, Fitzgibbons got a combined party for review video of "The Hobbit" proven at 48 supports a second. Some experts believed the pictures were too obvious, so genuine that it took away from the miracle of the film method.

At Comic-Con, Fitzgibbons select to demonstrate his video at the conventional 24 supports a second, saying the best way to encounter the higher projector screen amount is by viewing an whole film at 48 supports a second, not just excerpts.
