I really liked it.
Saw it in 24fps.Most people will draw comparisons - intentionally or not - to the Lord of The Rings movies. They're going to compare this one movie to three movies and about a decade of nostalgia and warm, fuzzy memories.
Looking forward to the next two movies.
If you're able to look at this movie as an individual movie - and not one in a canon - I think you'd place it above most of the drivel that comes out. Just my thoughts.- agreed. although I saw it 48fps 3D on a massive screen.Amicus

cant help but think the film ends in the same way the Prometheus film does...
anyway, the movie it's about jews..
Dwarf Kingdom = Solomon's Temple
The Lonely Mountain or Erebor = The Temple Mount
Gandalf = Moses
the dwarves = the jewsfrom wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J...
"Tolkien vocally opposed Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party prior to the Second World War. In 1938, the publishing house Rütten & Loening Verlag was preparing to release The Hobbit in Nazi Germany."My rating: 8.2
- this is part 1 of 3, so there are two more movies to complete the Hobbitmonospaced

- oh, and re: jews. Gollum = Golem?monospaced
- "Gollum = Golem?" yes, it can be.. +1pablo28

^ Looks ridiculously bad. Such a step down from the LOTR movies
LOL @ the CGI dragon

Question....Do you have to see it in a special theater to get the 48FPS?
How do you know?
- Only a few have the right gear to project 48fps decently.ApeRobot
- Most digital projectors that they use are capable of projecting at 48fps, if not much much higher ratesmonospaced

Even though Orcs and goblins are the same race, Tolkien seems to make subtle indications that they are different lineages or tribes of the same breed, and the Orcs of LoTR are more fierce. People who study Tolkien feel it was less intentional and more evolutionary, as he preferred the term Orcs over goblins by the time he wrote LoTR and wanted them even more fierce than described in the Hobbit.

I really enjoyed it. 3 hours passed by without getting bored.
looking forward to the rest. I actually like that it's not full on pace with the whole story compressed in 3 hours, this let's the story breathe better as it's a long adventure with lots of little stuff happening along the way.

I really enjoyed The Hobbit. The production is so through the roof it's easy to forgive some of the small things that get lost in translation with these movies.
Go see the movie, relax, enjoy yourself and try to remember why you like movies like this in the first place - because they're magical and do such a good job of taking you out of the everyday and into a wonderful new world that you're lucky movies like this are made at all.

I'm kind of mixed on it. We watched it last month I think and I thought I'd be more into it. I sort of felt like it was too amusing in contrast to LOTR, which had seemed more dramatic because of what they were trying to do. The visuals were great, of course. I guess it just didn't have that 100% escapist feel to it like LOTR does; I can watch any of those movies and completely tune the world out.

I agree with both of you. It was perfectly fun and entertaining. But it almost immediately left my mind afterwards. I am by no means a fanatic tho. So, there's that.
