Some of the CG work is taking one background and adding it to another. PJ even said in one of these that they intended to replace the sky in several scenes with the neat clouds they filmed in another location.

What they usually do with background CG is lighting and shadow adjustment to create specific moods of the scene. Stuff like adding dark thunder clouds and volcanoes to the mountains for Sauron or bright and holy lighting for Minas Tirith and of course CG sets. Also alot of background extras actually wear green or blue suits to have CG armour added to them later. Making armour prop on a large scale for the background is not as cost effective as digital armour lol

It really depends on budget and time lol, for example, some scenes of Avengers were so heavy, it took 7 hours to render each frame.
EDIT: Oh and manpower and skill, a single scene can easily be worked on by 7 teams of the best digital artists.

So, three movies for one book.
I wonder will each movie has beginning, middle, and climax-resolution like the previous trilogy, or Hobbit 1 will be beginning, Hobbit 2 middle, and Hobbit 3 Climax-resolution.

Technically they are making more than just one book. They are making all the material that surrounded the book as well. Tolkien made a lot of material. A whole lot of material. The Hobbit touched on some thing that were explained or made into story form in other sources. Just hinted at second or third hand in The Hobbit itself.
The Battle of Dol Guldur and the Necromancer are good examples of really important things that happen "off screen" in The Hobbit. We only hear about them in passing from Gandalf for the most part. Yet these events directy impact the story that is The Lord of the Rings.

Plus, lots of scenes were 'glossed over' in the book (definitely not the right term since it's Tolkien, but comparatively less-described) - their capture in Mirkwood for example. They might also give Beorn a bit more 'descriptive' screen time to justify all the epic praise he is given.

Okay.. either its been too long since some of ya'll read the book or ya'll never read it in the first place. You could make a freaking mini-series out of the book
