THE HOBBIT: INTO THE FIRE may be the new title for the third Hobbit movie

The third Hobbit movie may be getting a title change.  When the J.R.R. Tolkein adaptation was initially planned (and shot) as two films, the title of the final installment was The Hobbit: There and Back Again.  and then Peter Jackson decided to expand the adaptation to three films, he dubbed the second film "The Desolation of Smaug" but maintained the "There and Back Again" subtitle for the third feature.  Well now it appears that New Line Cinema has registered the title The Hobbit: Into the Fire, signaling a possible title change for The Hobbit 3.  [hit the jump to continue]
