My guess as to why it will cost more than Return of
the King is that since the LOTR movies were filmed
simultaneously, they don't know exactly how much money
each cost.  I doubt all of the people from Weta
workshop said "I worked this many hours on Fellowship
and this many on Two Towers..." And alot of sets were
used in all the movies, (for instance the cost of the
Shire was probably all factored into the Fellowship
budget) So, I'm sure that if the LOTR movies were made
at seperate times and the sets changed and costumes
changed as we have in the HP movies, it would have had
a higher budget.
