azatoth Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 I am not saying the Hobbit is that great of a movie, but I think some of you just love to complain and make an effort to hate any movie with mainstream appeal. I don't think there ever will be a movie made that you will like. So why not just stop watching movies if they are so horrible. And walking out of movies, I don't get it, you already gave them your money.

kokoon Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 Yeah, I don't get walking out of movies either. I think I've seen at least 5 good movies for every bad one in the past year, so I don't think I belong to that group of "mainstream appeal haters". But things like PJ's LOTR & Hobbit trilogies are the lowest of the low, the bottom of it all. Words can't describe how much of a bad thing they are. They're much worse than Hitler, for instance. And I'm completely serious.

kokoon Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 No, man, I honestly think it's one of the greatest wrongs of our time. It crushes good stuff in the world, with such reckless power, it reaches so far and impacts so many... In such a bad way! And I'm absolutely dead serious! Take the 5 most critical posts in this thread and multiply that negativity by 1892, that's how bad I think this is.

fenton Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 I went to see it. Loved the books, when I was a toddler, hate them now, hate the movies. Enjoyed it only very vaguely, like 1 enjoyments out of 10. The film itself was about 0 films out of ten. Completely abysmal. It was just rubbish in every way. And I did give it a chance. It even looked like shit, and the whole story was so mediocre I don't think they had even read the book, just skimmed it and thought 'dragon, orchs, elfs, dwarfs, I know! Oh yeah ffs don't forget the ring!' As evil as hitler / 10.

joshuatxuk Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 Saw this in theaters, regular frame rate. Enjoyed it as much as the first one, it felt long but not in a dragging way. This are making me want to see LOTR again, I find myself more connected to more of the characters for some reason...but hell that might have to do with my age now versus then. - Loved Stephen Fry's appearance - They made Orlando Bloom look younger and somehow even more dullish - Evangeline Lily was an excellent casting choice, she's not amazing or anything but she's personable (then again I'm a Lost fan) - Everything seemed bigger and more "epic" in scale than expected - that's the one application of CGI I love when done right - Barrel chase scene - great shots but I swear, swear, the quality of film dropped tremendously when it went into those POV shots (apparently from whitewater rafting) - like really bad camcorder quality.

In the context of any other film it would of been fine, it just stands out among the technical perfection elsewhere.
