    Re: The Hobbit.

    Watched it earlier today and part of me actually wishes I didn't watch it because now it's going to be quite a long year waiting for this movie to come out. It simply looks amazing. Of course, it may actually inspire me to sit down and watch the LOTR trilogy again at some point this winter over the course of a couple days.

    You would think that with all the work they put into the movie that they would like it to run for longer than one week.

    Re: The Hobbit.

    I don't know... I LOVE the LOTR movies, but The Hobbit is shorter than any of the LOTR books. Why are they stretching it out? How is it going to work? I'd say we should trust Peter Jackson, but King Kong and The Lovely Bones were both just awful, and to be honest I have issues with large parts of Return of the King (especially the ending, or multiple endings I should say).

    That said, it was awesome to see them all again. And Martin Freeman is PERFECT, just perfect. I hope it is amazing.

    I'm sure you know this, but just to be sure, make sure you watch the extended editions. God they are so awesome.

    Re: The Hobbit.

    Hate to say it but this movie bored me me to death the first three times I saw it.

    Nice cinematography though.
    School's out. What did you expect?

    Couple of days? Why not just watch them straight thru ya wuss

    Actually, 3 winters ago, my wife was stuck home on a weekend stuck on a coach due to some minor pregnancy complications. Too top it off, once we got back from the ER mid morning, it started snowing about and dropped a good 6+ inches on us. Stuck to the coach all day, we noticed LOTR was running on TNT or TBS or something along those lines, commercials included. Having no where to go, no kid yet we ended up watching all 3 in a row. Didn't really plan to, just kind of happened.

    Re: The Hobbit.

    I never read the books. I know The Hobbit is a prequel but what is it about? Is it as dark as LOTR?

    No, not at all. It is fine for children. Has a whole other tone.
    I've been to dinner at Jimmy Buffet's house, and I've eaten it at a homeless shelter. And there's great joy and harrowing terror to be found in both places.

    I thought King Kong was decent enough. Agreed on Return of the King though. I thought it was by far the weakest of the trilogy--of course it's the one to win all the Academy Awards haha...

    I always thought Two Towers was the weakest of the series.
