Re: The Hobbit movie....

That is not at all an unpopular opinion. In fact, those of us who love them seem more of a minority, at least among more active fans (casual fans are more likely to love them).

Interesting. I've seen mostly only positive stuff, but the people i know in rl who've seen them are all pretty much 'meh' on them.

Re: The Hobbit movie....

I've mostly seen negative reactions from the fandom and more positive from more casual fans, though there are certainly exceptions. I've just had a hard time finding places to talk about it positively with Tolkien fans. I'm a huge book fan and still happen to like the movies. They mostly just do their own thing and I'm okay with that.

I was *so* happy and enamored of the LotR movies, the Hobbit ones just...disappoint. They're not *bad*, per se, just...not up to the standard, to me, is all.

I was a huge Tolkien fan as a teenager, and I appreciate the way he thought about folklore, and I can accept that these movies are just a version of the story, that's been "in the soup."

So this movie series having lots of new inclusions instead of being a super-faithful adaptation is an understandable variation. It's not a disaster, any more than the weird illustrations his books would get in different translations were disastrous.

They're just not a very good accomplishment. The new stuff added to the first movie was very generic kids-cartoon stuff. I didn't bother (or haven't bothered yet) with the second and third installments.
