Just caught the movie 'The Hobbit' today, admittedly i've yet to read the book, although i heard it's less of a challenge compared to the LOTR trilogy (enough with the singing!). The movie starts out nicely, and ties itself with the previous trilogy with some interesting cameos! It's does start out slow at first, but at least the pace quickens once the quest starts?
This time round, there seems to be more violence than compared to the LOTR series? A lot of the bad guys are now CG; somehow i preferred the raw look of extra's made up in costumes.... CG critters always seem so..... clean visually somehow. And the dwarves.. not ALL of them actually look like Dwarves i think, more like tiny men. I've always imagined dwarves to be stocky and broad, although these guys DO have the prerequisite beards! They somehow look... Klingon?
Still, all in all an enjoyable experience... it's gonna be a TRILOGY too.. amazing.
Looks like we both watched it on the same day :) Caught the 9:15pm show at AMK Hub :) I quite enjoyed it ! So the next Hobbit movie will be them facing off against the Necromancer ?
