Eh, the book was basically a children's book. The problem is some people can't just sit back and enjoy a children's story without feeling like their maturity is being threatened or something.

Actually I think you'll find the Star Wars prequels were actually pretty good, so not comparable at all.

Also just like with Star Wars, the director's best work was before the first part of the series.

I liked the second one of the hobbit films more but this one was solid and probably better than anything else out right now if you are going to the movies. The first ten minutes should have been on the end of the second one, though, because goddamn not everything needs to be a cliffhanger esp a lovely one.

I think they are only really seeing them out of habit, like a weird compulsion because its a trilogy and you can't dip out after the first one

Oh another good part is Billy Connolly dwarf. PJ should make a trilogy about him and Lee Pace elf adventuring odd couple style.


Wait, I guess that was basically the LOTR trilogy kinda

the other day i heard two guys going on and on abotu how great the hobbit movies are.............. they kept dropping smug burns on other people saying stuff like "pffff....i guess everybody who HASNT READ THE BOOK are gonna be suprised when gigglypuff dies in the third movie"

then one of them said "man.... i wish they had made three movies each about the origional trilogy..." and the other guy said "ooh man,, that would be awesome... 9 movies total.... whoa"
