Good to see that you're a pretentious douche on more boards than just Poli Talk.

I did. I had to think "where the frick is that security. That's a long arse bridge, and surely someone should have seen them coming.


Or heard the ruckus between the very loud wolves they were riding and the pitched battle going on in the center of the city.

I don't know...really stood out among silly scenes in that movie.

You can't say anything negative around the fanboys.

Logic and fact have no place.

Such a great movie I'm going see it again Thursday before we head to New Orleans for the bowl game.

Still waiting for someone to explain the plot hole I mentioned.

Afraid?

That plot hole was the least of my problems with the movie.

It was the most egregious of the issues...by no means the lone one.

Again, I loved the first 3. The hobbit sucked. I heard this one was better and I guess it was Attack of the Clones better. But I really think Jackson pulled a Lucas with these.

Please stop with the Lucas shite. Lucas never got close in the prequels to the good things Jackson has done with the Hobbit. Did any scene in the prequels come in the ballpark of Bilbo's interactions with Gollum and Smaug? Those were perfect scenes.

I love how they used so much from the appendices. The beginning when thorin and gandalf meet in the bar was great for the story.

Especially. The next person to mention that shite shouldn't be allowed to post anymore. Give me a break. Peter Jackson has made George Lucas his bitch with Gollum and Smaug. Smaug will be the best thing you will see in the movies for years to come

Those guys are about to attack Thorin when Gandalf walks in and they commence to shite their pants.

The motion capture work beats the hell out of cgi. Add in Serkis and Cumberbatch and you get those great scenes.

One decent act out of a 2 hour and forty minute movie? Really? That's your standard.

I said, individual scenes were well done. But collectively they strung them together poorly. All the extra crap they added just made for a long not particuarly well done movie. And Elf having the hots for a dwarf? Really? Come on even my kid thought it was ridiculous...(unless she was looking for a place to rest her drink).

Who ever edited this mess should remove himself from the 3rd movie.
