    Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit. Man I love that trailer. I probably watched it like 30 times. It was perfect. Then I saw the movie. And I was sad.

      Three…movies…

      For an otherwise 350-page book.

      I’m still not over that. My solution to the Hobbit mess was, go for broke and make one 3-hour film. If the LOTR movies were long and got extended editions, why not Hobbit? No it got 3 whole movies and so much stuff got crammed in there that honestly shouldn’t have been in there in the first place.

          Or why Azog was there, a character who died out many years before the Hobbit journey even began. Like was Smaug, the Necromancer and the Goblin King not enough for antagonists? That’s quite stacked if you tell me.
