Pull up a stool for second breakfast and light your pipeweed, because The Hobbit is here!Īll of Peter Jacksons production video blogs are here. It never captures the charm of the first hour or so of film 1 but it avoids the bottom of the barrel that is the climax of film 2.This is the subreddit for all things related to the Hobbit films, the classic novel and anything else Hobbity. Alfred But I think it has a lot of great moments-the chariot sequence is really great. It is filled with redundancies and bizarre additions, i.e. So yes like the rest of the Hobbit films this is too long-awkwardly trying to split the difference between the novel and the LOTR films. I rather like as a experience because it is one of few times I have ever been able to follow a battle tactically in cinema with ease. It stands on its own far more than the other 5 films in the series. In some ways this is most complete Middle Earth film Jackson ever made. A character we have come to know going mad needs time to breath. Character deaths should have dramatic meaning beyond whatever linguistic obsession Tolkien had. This is especially true if you are an action filmmaker. And given the 3 key character deaths it makes sense that you would want to isolate this section and flesh it out. The material after Smaug's death is grim, especially compared to the rest of it. I think this film goes a long way to explain why Jackson and company decided to split the novel into (at least) 2 films.
