I love the movie a lot, but it didn't give me a lot of feels.

Well apart from the feels that Richard Armitage gave me in my nether regions.

Richard Armitage was quite sexy. Quite sexy indeed.

~~Agreed about Armitage, though this is not at all an unpopular opinion. Haha.~~

I wish Richard Armitage would feel MY nether regions, hurr hurr hurr... I'm sorry, what was this thread about again?

hehehe. :)

He, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Aidan Turner all made the movie for me.

I'm inappropriately attracted to Richard Armitage. God dammit, man, I should not be this attracted to a dwarf.

I remember his cameo from Captain America and thinking, damn he's really hot. Looks like they found a rugged, handsome man to replace Aragorn.

Holy fucks. THIS!
Also, I ended up shpping Bilbo and Thorin. *gets shot while Tolkien rolls in his grave*

That's because the book is just boring words on page and the movie is hot guys on a big screen. Hot guys give more feels than anything else.

Yessss, it's nice to have a positive Hobbit secret!

I didn't think any movie could move me as much as LOTR (shut up) but I have a feeling the next Hobbit movies will come close. Damn was I invested in the story and characters. (I ADORE the book, and especially Bilbo, and although I've always liked the cast I'll readily admit because of the movie I'm more fond of them than ever.)

That said, LOTR is fantastic and if you like The Hobbit I think you might enjoy Lord of the Rings. You don't have to read it of course, but what could it hurt? It won't be the same thing, but it's not supposed to be exactly the same. If you don't like it as much that's okay too.

But, eh, either way...THE HOBBIT!!!

There's a certain word in this secret that feels like the sound of nails scraping a chalkboard. Rhymes with heels.

mte

I actually have to agree, and I've been reading and re-reading The Hobbit for... shit, sixteen years now. I liked the story, don't get me wrong, but always preferred reading (and, later, watching) Lord of the Rings, and never really 'clicked' with Bilbo as a main character, whereas I did with Frodo (book and movies alike - so many book feels in some of those passages ahhh).

Movie version? Suddenly, and I'm not sure how, but I get it. Suddenly, Bilbo is so much more a protagonist that I can cheer on. It's not a nostalgia thing, either, since I reread the book about a week before the movie came out, and it was only the movie that made me go, "Ohhh, now I get it!"

I like your icon.

This movie gave me so many feels. In ways the LOTR movies didn't. That is probably blasphemy or something, but I don't care. Don't get me wrong, I love them, but I didn't get so emotional or obsessed over them as I have over the Hobbit. I loved it. I want icons and wallpapers. I want picpsams of Thorin and Keely. I want fics. I want kinky fics (there is actually a kinkmeme, and I never felt the need to find a LOTR one).

I loved the Hobbit book and never really enjoyed the LOTR books, anon. They are set in the same world, but the writing style is very different. For me, LOTR dragged a little too much. Way to much description and sidetracking. That being said, I would recommend reading them at least once.

and Keely

for an "obsessed" person with a lot of "feels", you haven't done much research on how to spell your favorite characters' names.

I really enjoyed the movie too. I'm a big fan of LOTR movies and books and of The Hobbit, but I enjoy them in different ways because they *are* very different styles.

On another note, I giggled at the picture you used because my first comment after we left the theatre was "I never thought about how much dang running they do in the first part of the story."

I'm so, so pleased with this movie series. They're making a proper prequel to the entirety of the events in LOTR, not just a direct adaptation.

I love it because I never know exactly what I'm going to see next. I know the story, but they might cut away to something else or add something at any time. A direct adaptation would have been fine, but what they made is turning out to be more fun for me as an audience member.

The kind of person who would use the word "feels" twice in one secret is exactly the kind of person at whom this movie was aimed (apparently).

I cried a ridiculous amount during this movie. I was actually pretty ashamed of how leaky my eyes got. Especially during the Misty Mountains song, which I heard a crazy amount before the movie due to husband watching and rewatching the trailer with it in there.

Please stop using the word "feels." This is directed toward everyone.

Such a great movie. I have so much love and nostalgia for the story that it made me incredibly happy to hear the words "In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit."
