Riot:
A beautiful story too, probably one of my favorite reads during a stormy cold day.

I loved the Hobbit as a book. I also loved the first 2 Hobbit films and didn't like the 3rd much. First 2 felt a lot like a long slow-paced adventure film and the 3rd felt like a Marvel Movie. I know the Hobbit films got a lot of stuff and they have obvious flaws (Legolas and the stuffty romance didn't need to be in it) but I still loved them. I feel like a lot of people wanted them to be LOTR 2 but that just wasn't what the book was and I thought that it was really great.

Anyway, I'm watching the Tolkien Hobbit edit. It's basically an edit that combined them all into a 2 hour movie. It's really fun and follows the plot of the book much more closely. I love the long films but I don't really want to invest the time lol

yeah despite jackson's alterations in his adaptations both trilogies are 100% without a doubt masterpieces. i was extra sad when the last goodbye played at the end of the hobbit because i really wanted a silmarillion movie or something that goes back into the days of morgoth. i guess it wouldnt be AS interesting as lotr or the hobbit but holy forget id pay all the moneys to see some more middle earth history made into an epic film

silmarillion movie would be great but no way in hell would it break a profit
