TV/Movies Megathread

Peter Jackson is pretty great.  Tolkein-inspired works are booring.

I managed to catch a few episodes of this new Looney Tunes Show on the Youtube.  It's pretty decent.

Is this Hobbit movie worth watching ?

It's not bad, but it isn't brilliant either.

[Razgovory]

It's good but in desperate need of an editor.  Could easily cut 45 minutes out of it (and you still end up with a two hour movie)

I especially liked the one where Bugs becomes addicted to drugs.

No, really, that happens.  Take that, you smug fuck.

[Darth Wagtaros]

That was a good one.

Is this Hobbit movie worth watching ?

If you liked the LOTR movies, yes.
If Peter Jackson is, in your opinion, worst than George Lucas, no.

I disagree.  I liked LOTR and found the Hobbit boring.  I understand the commercial need to add content that wasnt in the book to stretch it to two movies but really it felt like a B movie with special effects to try keep the audience attention (but failed).  Also way to long.  I found myself hoping the damn thing would end but it went on and on and on.

"It's worse, then" I thought.

[Grey Fox]

3 movies, CC. 3.

Its worse then I thought.

Yep. Especially knowing that the hobbit is a 200 pages book.

grammar nazi.  You are worse than Thatcher

[Josephus]

everybody had good grammar before Thatcher. But one of her lasting legacies is that people don't know good grammar anymore. It's all her fault.

It's not a single 200 pages book.  There's a lot of content in the annexes of LOTR, where they took most of the content.

I didn't find it that long, just ok, I felt entertained. It could have been better, but it was a good movie, better than many who came out in 2012.
