"According to Elijah Wood, New Line HAS given PJ permission to go over 3 hours for ROTK..."

Jackson has said as much as well. This is excellent news, and shows how much TLC New Line Cinema has put into this series, and how much clout that PJ has built up, to boot. It's sure that, based upon the time factor by itself, that ROTK is starting out with a strike or two against it, with mainstream audiences.

I bet they bring back intermissions for this one.

When you you're clearing nearly a billion per picture (TTT has a chance to go over that), your clout with the studio seems to go up a notch or two.

What's remarkable is that it seems not to be much of a handicap for these movies.

There's a thought.

Of course, I'd sit through a six hour ROTK, so I may not be the best judge of all this.

Ping, great read to see what they left out.

It looks like ROTK is going to go over three hours.
