Meaningless Hobbit Announcement Draws Huge Cheers

An announcement at this morning’s The One Ring Middle Earth fan-panel at Comic-Con saw the crowd get very excited: apparently, Peter Jackson has stated definitively that the Hobbit films will not be made in 3D.
Reasons that this means next to nothing range from “It wasn’t Peter saying this, just somebody saying Peter said this” to “What Hobbit films? They’ve not been given the greenlight and – maybe – they never will be”.
But what’s the reaction in this room? This was the best bit of Hobbit news to come out of Con so far, and probably will be for the entire duration. Are we still even expecting these films to go into production? Ever?
