I think the pacing in the second one is off, and I would've been perfectly fine with a more straightforward adaption, but I don't mind all the changes. I actually loved Tauriel (and found Kili/Tauriel cute, though I don't want it taking up a lot of screentime), Legolas' action scenes were awesome and the Sauron plot-line has potential. Galadriel and Elrond showing up is cool too; it's nice to see their familiar faces! As long as the ending stays the same, I'll be fine.
I DO think if PJ had went for a more straightforward adaption The Hobbit could've been two films instead of three, but I'm not massively upset or anything. (I suppose I'm one of the few people who think that The Hobbit would've been worse as one film. The book was good, but it never stood out like LOTR to me because of how quickly it went by and how little you learned about the cast. I liked the mains, but didn't feel connected to them in the same way. Drawing the story out gives PJ a chance to make things more interesting and exciting. If he actually succeeds, well...everyone's going to have a different opinion about that, but I don't think it was a bad decision to make multiple films.)
I love Middle-Earth and am always happy to see more of it.
