Guillermo del Toro�did a live Blu-Ray chat for the�Hellboy II: The Golden Army users where he announced plans for the two upcoming Hobbit films.

He confirmed that a shoot lasting just over a year – 370 days to be precise – will commence in 2010 for the two “The Hobbit” films.

He added that we will see the as much of the goblin kindgom, Smaug and the Spiders of Mirkwood that he can include – “we will be pushing them to the edge of technology where we will fuse animatronics and cgi into a seamless new art form in creating creatures”�he stated�during the chat.

The technology that will be available in 2011 I’m sure will amaze us beyond anything we’ve seen in the world of fantasy filmmaking. I’m already excited to see it’s still 3-4 years off.�
