On another note, youngLuke, we can only assume you did a legal download of the Hobbit, right???? If not though, no worries, yer just like all the rest of we pagan CHRISTmas celebrating sinners, afterall. The kind of folk God sent His Son to die for and COVER all our sins by His shed blood. Just don't make His 'grace' on the cross given you a license to sin.
As would/did Paul say, and, he said this more than once: "God forhid" .
The Lord leads, His Spirit is in your temple, wants to be, don't you know, He is with you, just like **spoiler for the Hobbit** God was with Bilbo sooo many times in that movie, as I see it, spiders, saving the dwarves, against Smaug, within Golam's lair, etc. like God with Joseph, like Godcwith David, like God with the two spis, like Caleb, like with Joshua, like Samuel, ALL these men had greatest of adventures , many more, too, Moses, Abraham, Noah, all had, just as the cartoon version of The Hobbit opens movie with quite a song ....I love it's meaning especially when I know what I know about the LOTR and The Hobbit author, who is a....In a minute, my precious', first a 'great' song, about the unlikeliest hero of all, a furry-calved man who is shortest of citizens on planet earth, called to save a people in need by Gandalph, who is 'great.'

It did seem short to me. I went with a friend who knew NOTHING about it...she goes IT WAS AWESOME! And I was like *whomp* 0_O. I didn't know what to say...I did watch it, I knew I would I had been waiting on it for 2 years!! So my opinion: It was full of action (which I liked) but I had wished there were more adventures in it. Lord of the Rings was more adventurous...but I have to keep reminding myself that this is the prequel and L.O.T.R is what comes after which makes a lot of sense. So to me it felt like only 1 adventure, like 1 setting the entire time. I am glad there are 2 other parts because hopefully that will make up for the emptiness I felt after watching the movie. I want to watch it at least 1 more time to make sure of my opinions maybe in 3D this time.
Last night, I went to see what I thought was going to be the Hobbit, but while I was watching it, the characters starting singing "Oompa Loompa Doompadee Doo", and I realized it wasn't the Hobbit, it was a different movie. Needless to say, I demanded my money back, but I kept my golden ticket. And to make myself feel better, I bought some chocolate at a nearby factory!!!

I look forward to seeing it because I loved the cartoon, seeing it many times as a kid, I kinda had forgot but I saw LOTR: Return Of The King on RCA videodisc , that was the cool 'in' thing when I was a kid
I don't though, oddly enough remember much of it, and, The Hobbit, I watched on VHS and it was what I really remember liking, saw it many times. I've drawn up campaigns Hobbitesque for friends to go through, and, sure, other places, too, inspiration of mine 'given,' came, the Lord leads, but much of my ruminations came from inspiration from watching The Hobbit....
I love the Smaug the dragon scene, ole Bilbo proves, to me, a much mindful one there, against the charismatic, strong (Dungeons & Dragons character traits, which also was what my campaigns were structurally based off of, conceivably, one can say it led to my mind's conceivings ) treasure hoarder. But, not to give it away , it's just, to me, a great story of one man against a very sinister world, much of it out to get ole Bilbo. I'd a liked to seen him call on God more but, in small ways, I think, Tolkien does a good job of passively showing Christian elements to his stories that could easily be up for discussion in a classroom.
Some imagination needed lent but great battles, especially LOTR big one reflect the way the world could war one day....Just sayin'

Speaking of the part I boldfaced of your quote, milady...
I look forward to seeing how The Hobbit was done, how they broke up the movie , for the ending of part one. I don't understand how they will take a 1.5 hour cartoon The Hobbit I saw and flesh it out to three hours !
I'm guessing ghe details of the book are quite more laden than the small tteasury of story packed into the animated Hobbit movie.
I think, blindedchicky, that the reason The Hobbit might not seem that adventuresome is that the story starts out with a little adventure that only hardly gets going, even in 3 hours, IF one really takes time to film the story to the word, so to speak. I think, LOTR, is same style, as Peter Jackson, one of the original creators of D&D books, campaigns, btw, starti g out in part one, Fellowship of the Ring, before building in The Two Towers, and, cresting, so to speak, with Return of the King.

New Trailer of the last movie, if you haven't already seen...
If you are a LOTR fan- the song sung is known as Edge of the Night or 'Pippin's song' (no, not PIPP) Pippin, from the LOTR trilogy, so they are connecting the two trilogies. I was wondering why the heck would they chose that particular song?! Apparently, in the book, Bilbo wrote it because of his journey, and it just go happens that Peter Jackson used the song in LOTR for Pippin to sing before he was given the rights to film the hobbit. So what is known as Pippin's song is actually Bilbo's song.
^I don't know if any of you actually care, but hey...

The first two Hobbit movies are convoluted, overly-long and rather messy at times. There are lots of problems and some over-reliance on CGI. That said, there are good movies to be found within them, somewhere. This third part really looks quite good. I'm excited too. The Battle of the Five Armies and what follows on from there is probably my favourite part of the story anyway. It takes the traditional quest for dragon treasure and turns it into something more realistic and interesting.

Yup, the thread is back for the second-last time EVER (Last one will be after the movie in December)
Its been quite the little journey since the beginning of this thread in 2012. 2 years past, we laughed, we cried, we watched a movie or two. After this, there will be no more movies about adventures or hobbits, elves or wizards, nor Rings, great evils, dangerous creatures and epic battles. Here is the official and last trailer of it all:
