(Anonymous) 2014-07-01 12:55 am (UTC)(link)The book and the moviez are different creatures with different purposes and therefore different approaches to characters. Doesn't make one better than the other... but when you weigh up both end results, one is clearly better than the other. And it ain't the movies.

(Anonymous) 2014-07-01 01:14 am (UTC)(link)I appreciate that they've developed the characters but it doesn't disguise the whole raft of flaws the movie has. Especially when they decide to cut character development for more bloated, CGI-heavy, OTT action fests.

(Anonymous) 2014-07-01 01:38 am (UTC)(link)The movies have horrible pacing, are far too long, have cheesy original dialogue and unattractive CGI. I supported Jackson when I heard he was going to add extra stuff, not only for continuity to fit in with the actual LOTR verse (orcs, a more serious atmosphere, etc) but also just to make them more interesting (while fun, the book itself doesn't make a good movie plot, certainly not two/three movies). But honestly, I think the LOTR movies were good because stuff got cut and pacing was so much more important. In the Hobbit movies, Jackson thinks he can just make them as long as he likes and add whatever he likes, due to LOTR success, but it has the opposite effect. Bloated and boring.
