Complaining about how it's "stretched" begs the question. With two movies, it always seemed to me that stuff would still have to be compressed or left out. Plus you know they'll expand the battle o' five armies, which was just a short summary in the book.

B'wana Beast, Sunday, 2 September 2012 05:43 (thirteen years ago)

Oh yay cause the battle scenes were so the best thing in LOTR :/

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug

I so, so hope this one'll be a meditation on draconian ennui, three hours of nothing but Cumberbatch moping around.

Tuomas, Monday, 3 September 2012 09:30 (thirteen years ago)

Go not to Dragons for ennui, for they will say "Oh I suppose so"

Andrew Farrell, Monday, 3 September 2012 10:50 (thirteen years ago)

two weeks pass...

New trailer tomorrow.

Think I'll wait till there's an edit without Martin Freeman.

ledge, Wednesday, 19 September 2012 14:57 (thirteen years ago)

Damn, even the stone giants in the Misty Mountains. Didn't think they'd actually show!

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 19 September 2012 15:01 (thirteen years ago)

Okay LOL at Radagast having a sled pulled by a trained team of huge attack rabbits. Night of the Lepus!

eh, it's cool I guess

Think I'll wait till there's an edit without Martin Freeman.

See, I think he is a jackass but his acting is okay? I can overlook it anyway.

controversial cabaret roommate (Nicole), Wednesday, 19 September 2012 15:52 (thirteen years ago)

I am going to go see this and pretend he is Arthur Dent the whole time.

the girl from spirea x (f. hazel), Wednesday, 19 September 2012 17:38 (thirteen years ago)

same difference

Number None, Wednesday, 19 September 2012 17:39 (thirteen years ago)

Hell yes.

Note to Hollywood: Make more movies with wizards in them!

Emperor Cos Dashit (Adam Bruneau), Wednesday, 19 September 2012 17:59 (thirteen years ago)

Eh, if you broke it down I bet the wizard to movie ratio has been relatively high the last few years.

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 19 September 2012 18:19 (thirteen years ago)

Harry Potter ruined the curve.

controversial cabaret roommate (Nicole), Wednesday, 19 September 2012 18:41 (thirteen years ago)

What's that weird black blob at 0:31?

nate woolls, Wednesday, 19 September 2012 19:00 (thirteen years ago)

See, I think he is a jackass but his acting is okay? I can overlook it anyway.

I don't knock his acting, I think he's great at playing Martin Freeman. I just never saw Bilbo as being very Martin Freemanish. Same for Dr Watson. Arthur Dent - could've been Freemanesque if Simon Jones hadn't got in there first. Tim from The Office, yeah he was Freemany.

ledge, Wednesday, 19 September 2012 19:01 (thirteen years ago)

Is the CGI finished? It seems a lot cartoonier than in LOTR.

I wish to incorporate disco into my small business (chap), Wednesday, 19 September 2012 19:59 (thirteen years ago)

I'm excited for these, been rewatching the LOTR trilogy with my wife over the past few weeks (taking forever because why extended editions) and forgot how much I enjoyed 'em.

heated debate over derpy hooves (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Wednesday, 19 September 2012 20:04 (thirteen years ago)

Fellowship is the only one that's significantly improved in the extended cut iirc.

I wish to incorporate disco into my small business (chap), Wednesday, 19 September 2012 20:07 (thirteen years ago)

Yeah, midway through Two Towers and that seems to be true, so far anyway.

heated debate over derpy hooves (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Wednesday, 19 September 2012 20:08 (thirteen years ago)

I wish there could be a special moodles cut edition that included about half the extra scenes from the extended cuts but left the rest as is.

Moodles, Wednesday, 19 September 2012 20:23 (thirteen years ago)

the extended Faramir/Boromir story arc from ROTK was a worthwhile addition iirc.

Broney, Pt. 1 (Pillbox), Wednesday, 19 September 2012 21:50 (thirteen years ago)

That actually played out better than I expected.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 19 September 2012 21:52 (thirteen years ago)

the dumbest shit in the extended editions is the whole Aragorn falls off a cliff/Arwen love story subplot

stop swearing and start windmilling (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 19 September 2012 21:59 (thirteen years ago)

and yeah Fellowship is absolutely the best

stop swearing and start windmilling (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 19 September 2012 21:59 (thirteen years ago)

Fellowship and Towers both better in the extended version. Return of the King is the only one that comes out worse, but the shorter version isn't so hot, either.

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 19 September 2012 22:18 (thirteen years ago)

I like the extra Mordor scenes in ROTK

Moodles, Wednesday, 19 September 2012 22:19 (thirteen years ago)

Pick a dwarf, any dwarf:

Not sure if I can take 7 hrs of that.

WARS OF ARMAGEDDON (Karaoke Version) (Sparkle Motion), Friday, 28 September 2012 07:04 (thirteen years ago)

yeah i think that poster lost me

Clay, Friday, 28 September 2012 07:05 (thirteen years ago)

or at least whatever was left of me that was still a motivated interest

Clay, Friday, 28 September 2012 07:06 (thirteen years ago)

Pretty true to the spirit of the book imo.

Aidan Turner sticks out as being very Aidan Turner-y while the rest look very...tolkien.
