<title>OT: The Hobbit- Who saw it?</title>
<description> Hopefully this isn't too awfully redundant as it's been out for about a month now. I just saw it a week or so back--thought it was really done well. Great representation and very accurate for the most part. I did notice that they didn't mention the wolves being called 'wargs'. And a couple factions of the book were overlooked and others perhaps over-emphasized. But overall,great job! What did folks here think?

I remember all the nerds at school were into The Hobbit though LOL.<br /><br />Guess I need to try one or two ..........I'm one of those people who take a loooooooong time to get around to watching so called classic movies and get reminded often of what I've missed. Saw Jaws for the first time the other day haha.]]></description>

I was one of those who loved this book better than the LOTR. Its more stand alone story as mentioned above but with hints of whats to come!]]></description>

I didn't think the movie was as strong as the previous LOTR films, but I felt that was due more to the original source - the book is more or less a treasure-seeking adventure novel and doesn't have the grand sweep of the later three books. With that said, it was fun to re-visit the world of Tolkien as interpretated by Peter Jackson &amp; Co, and Martin Freeman was especially noteable in his acting.]]></description>

I agree with the critics - the film could stand to lose a solid 20 minutes and has huge pacing problems, in spite of being good....it could've been excellent.<br /><br />Also, I hate IMAX 3D.

Although that may be because the auditorium was like an oven. Me and heat just do not mix well, as it makes me really tired, and I nearly fell asleep a few times, so it wasn't getting my full attention. I'm hoping I enjoy it more when it comes out on Blu-Ray.]]></description>
