He’s just a troll and the Hobbit was absolutely fucking terrible. First 30 minutes of the first film were the only part I could watch without loathing every second.

I am excited for this series, but odds are it’ll be mediocre at best. Either way, it’s gotta be better than the shit show that was The Hobbit

I have brutally low expectations. The Hobbit was horrible, its a perfect example of trying to capitalize on previous success without having any source material. Yes it had the Hobbit, but they tried to make three movies out a short novel to milk every last dollar.

As for this TV series, it's clear that they will continue down the CGI bombardment that Marvel is riding. Great CGI does no excuse bad acting though, and there can be too much CGI.

The actors better not be wet unlikable paper bags like 95% of the Wheel of Time actors.

that is why the original 3 will forever be in my :love:

the CGI smear job was awful in all the 'Hobbits'

The series I can tell already will have some of that, but there are moments (horses riding through landscape) that looked reminiscent of old times, I will watch it but.. we will see qq

I think ultimately we're all going to watch it because of nostalgia. What will be interesting though is to see how many watch the full season or if it drops off and ultimately if the acting proves people wrong.

I don't necessarily care if they changed the characters that much as long as its done well with good acting and scripts. I'm no purist if things are done well.
