(Anonymous) 2013-12-18 03:00 am (UTC)(link)I've seen the movie, it was fun. And that's what's important to me. Fun.
Tauriel was all right. I honestly don't have any ideas of how she could have been "improved" because it's not that important to me. I could have done without the romance angle, but she's not a bad character.
Smaug is awesome. I have never seen Benedict Cumberbatch act or never heard him speak, all I know is what I've seen from fangirls and the haters. But I decided to put all that aside to give him a chance. His voice acting is great, perfect for Smaug. Really gave the old dragon depth.
Martin Freeman, don't know much about him, but he makes a fine Bilbo.
I'm seriously thinking of seeing it again.

But mostly I totally agree that as long as the movie is fun, everything else... Well I can sit back after I've seen it and look at the criticisms and see which I can objectively agree with, while still remaining a fan of the movie because I can separate my enjoyment from my critical analysing.
(I'm also a Doctor Who and Transformers fan who love TF movieverse even though Michael Bay is crap, and has liked the Eleventh Doctor run, even though I see what people mean about Steven Moffat's handling.)

(Anonymous) 2013-12-18 04:00 am (UTC)(link)Kili does seem to have a boyish crush on her, which seems to amuse her, and she does end up caring for him. Which could mean just exactly that.
It's the Legolas angle that I didn't care for, and for a creepy moment I thought Thranduil was going to have feelings for her, too, instead he just spouts this "lesser elves, don't lead Legolas on," stuff.
That's the right attitude, imo. We know these movies are going to be flawed, but why not have fun with them? I haven't seen the later Who stuff, but the Transformer movies were fun.
