Finally got around to watching the first one. I enjoyed it.
I still think it's shitty milking this into three movies, but what the hell. I'm certainly not going to buy anything until the full set of expanded releases come out, but I might check out the next one in the theater. |

Simply Red faps furiously as we speak.
And is that Cumberbatch voicing Smaug? |

Agreed, and they're not just making stuff up from nowhere. While some of the stuff is off-camera (re: the "Necromancer") we know it does happen. This is Tolkien's story AS told by Jackson. If you're a purist, then I'm sure you will hate it, in which case don't go. For the rest of us, I think Jackson has earned our trust that he will do no harm, and will entertain us greatly with his vision of the story.

Some aspects of the first Hobbit movie were a bit over the top and childish for me but looking back it certainly makes sense considering the Hobbit was far more a childrens book. I actually think the entire 6 movie series will work on many levels once the 2 remaining Hobbit films are finished. The only MAJOR thing I would change about all of it (so far) is I'd put Tom Bombadil back in the Fellowship. |

I didn't like the first one all that much, it seemed overlong and meandering and for much of the runtime pointless, but that doesn't keep me from looking forward to part 2.

Looks like more CGI bullshit where characters defy the laws of gravity and never get one cut or scrape.

Yeah, they definitely went over the top with the last one at times. That last scene with the trees dangling over the cliff was ridiculous. They should have at least greased one of them.
