I agree that the Dwarves definitely got more depth. I disagree with a few decisions they made for the Dwarves but I do like the movie!Thorin better than the one in the book. And several others are very memorable. I'm also really liking Bard's kids and I like Bard too.

I agree about the inclusion of the Dol Goldur storyline because I thought the same thing; you have to show where Gandalf is going; it only makes sense. I was actually hoping for much more. I've heard the scene is short but I'll wait until I see it first before I can say more.

I am looking forward to the battle. I'm trying to find the right mental space to enjoy the movie the most. I know it's not going to be the book or go in the direction I'd hoped. I'm actually consuming a lot of negative comments because I find that if I go in with all these terrible expectations, I end up being pleasantly surprised and that's the impression that stays with me. I think I'm going to enjoy this one the most probably.

I do think I'll end up wanting the EE though. That seems to be universal with a lot of the critics who've read the book.

It is a short scene, but it more than makes up for it in badassness.

The extended editions are always better. They are for the fans. It is usually mostly stuff that would be too much for the theater and for casual fans, and a lot of the fun is getting the new stuff when it comes out.
