TheOneRing.net boards are always active with all types of of interesting discussions. Here is one that jumped out at me today from board member Dreamdeer:
So..the second movie is tentatively expected to release around December, 2012? How fitting! Multiple groups around the globe (most famously the Mayan calendar) have predicted that the world will end that very month, or at least experience such interesting cataclysms as to signal the end of the world as we know it. But hey, if I get to see the final Tolkien movie before it all goes kablooey, I’ll be satisfied. Wouldn’t that be a nice way to close things down?

As many of you know, TheOneRing.net has been contributing bi-weekly Tolkien updates for ‘To Be Continued… with Sohaib and Stuart,’ a pop culture show on WNJC 1360 AM, Philadephia. For a variety of reasons, not the least of which was the content of the show before ‘To Be Continued…,’ TheOneRing.net will now be providing that same segment on a new show called ‘Fictional Frontiers with Sohaib,’ featuring host the very same Sohaib Awan. This show will air in a more family friendly time slot, 11AM-NOON ET on the same station, WNJC 1360 AM, Philadephia. The first show will be this week and we hope you can join us for some interesting talk about Tolkien, The Hobbit, maybe some prizes and more! As always, the show will be streamed live for those of you who live outside Philadelphia. [Fictional Frontiers] [Netcast]

Del Toro, or “GDT” as he is affectionately already known on the TORn message boards, responded to the thread, giving a healthy discussion an extra shot of energy.
