So, the Hobbit? It was great. Terrific. I'd say that the characters' portrayal was better than LOTR. However, still no film's plot could match LOTR's epicness.
Martin Freeman IS Bilbo. He was born a Hobbit. His moves and expression, they were ADORABLE.
I noticed, both in the books and the movies, Gandalf's character was more soft in the Hobbit compared to LOTR. He was actually afraid in some scene.
There were slight alterations in the screenplay from the books, but I believe that was for the best, to create a villian (the orcs) with a better background story. And Thorin actually realise Bilbo's value so fast!
I like how the movie started, from preparations for the party in the begining of LOTR, to Bilbo's flashback.
Some may think that one book made into 3 movies would be too draggy, but I assure you, once they finally left Bilbo's house, the pace quickens, just like in the books. Most of the big events like the goblin battle and the wolves scene were settled in only about 10 pages.
Here's the fangirl side of me:
Here is the trailer:
And here's a bonus New Zealand flight safety video based on the Hobbit. Peter Jackson (director of The Hobbit and LOTR) cameos in it.
