I liked the singing and Thorin. I honestly kinda liked the Dol Guldur bit in the second film.

Disliked pretty much everything else.

Pros: Evangeline Lily is hot as an elf and the music is really good
Cons: everything else

/thread

We get to see female dwarfs.

Where is her beard?

Nice jewels.

The beginning of the first one was nice while the dwarves fuck over Bilbo's life. I liked the Dungeons and Dragons vibe a little. The rock monsters were cool. Everything else is pretty much shit, especially most of the dwarves and their stupid hats and beady eyes

Gollum was pretty good

i liked everything that was in the original story. fuck all the stuff about sauron going on as the subplot, and that shoved in shit with the big orc and the battle of the five armies at the end.

I liked Bilbo running circles around Smaug in the gold hoard. Lake Town was pretty cool. Basically everything else was bad.

The massive tools where cool.

Best character

book fags, if they were a relic of elf-king's house, how did the dwarves get the jewels in the first place? steal them?

Comfy

>taking a book that can be read in one day and turning it into a 9 hour trilogy
gay

How many different staffs do Gandalf use across the movies/books? Where do he gets them?

I liked the way they animated the Nazgul and the way the Nazgul looked.

Hate this trope: character can't eat before being interrupted. In a lot of american movies this is present: they order a burger, get a call, one bite before running outside. ¿Have you guys seen korean dramas? Those folks eat all the time!

Things I liked:
>they didn't turn any of the dwards or any of the main characters into niggers
Things I didn't like:
>I spotted at least one darkie in lake town, which ruined my immersion

Would you accept the contract, user Baggins?

>like
songs (pulled from the books but they add to the atmosphere and story telling)
another tolkein movie to fill the void
bard story was OK, it was strange to just have a random character kill smaug so it added to the sotry, but they did go a little overboard with the master and laketown
adding in the witch-king and galadriel, both fit even if not in the book
most of the main actors are back (except legolas who should have been left out)
>dislike
all the bloatware that was not in the book
the battle of five armies, i know biblo gets knocked out all of a sudden but has it recalled to him, but there were alot of scenes that didnt make sense
elf-dwarf race relationships

Santa was a good cast

what jewels?
its been awhile since i saw the hobbit movies

I would. Adventures are fun, if you're the main character at least.

I really liked Smaug's design and voice.

i hated them, but watching the Tolkien edit made me miss quite a few of the filler scenes

i still believe the tolkien edit is the best tho

Is holding a red hot ingot cannon?

Was Radagast too goofy?

>Like:
The designs are perfect. I will defend them from any criticism.
The voices are perfect. I had a book on tape as a child that was just the movie without video, it didn't skip a beat.
The music is inspired. Without question the definitive sound of The Hobbit originates here.
The direction, especially of the film's climax is intense as fuck.
Bilbo and the dwarves are great characters.
Gollum is eerie and monstrous

>Don't like:
The animation is cheap and the battle of five armies needs like 2 or 3 more action shots to be worth a shit.
The writing isn't perfect, there's a cheesy line or two
Short runtime makes the eagles ex machina kind of rushed, see point 1.

Overall, I give it a 9/10. It's one of my favorite fantasy movies.

It should’ve been only 2 movies. The over reliance on CGI wouldn’t have been so bad if the pacing was decent. It feels more fantastical than grounded and I don’t know if that’s a good thing or a bad thing. On one hand it gives it its own identity, on the other it feels jarring when watching the trilogies back to back. Girl power elf was dumb.

She farted on male plane passengers when she worked as a stewardess

Some nice designs

I can’t stop roughly counting how many posts before a Zig Forums sjw tries to ruin a thread with identity politics

what are you saying?
THIS doesn't look like an epic climactic battle to you?
I actually love that the fight gets so glossed over, the adventure is what matters

1)Too much filler
>Could've been a 2 parter at least.
2) Too much green-screen'
>McKellan actually cried that he never shared many acting scenes with anyone, it was all super-imposed interactions
3) No Del Toro
>Probably could've added that "Pan's Labrinyth" kino to the movies.

Dude who played Thorin carried the movie and Dwarf lore in general though the set design in the opening sequence had something very off about it. Too glossy, matte... too obviously crafted for a movie. Can't put it in to words.

the song and riddles in the dark were 10/10. Like the dragon banter too. that is literally it though. Maybe something like 15 minutes out of the entire trilogy

nah he is suppose to be eccentric

not in the books
