Innovation and perfection always comes at a cost...

Rating: 10/10 (23 December 2012)

The most stupid comment about the movie was "its too real, it reminds me of a documentary!!!". And i guess that that summarize 99% of the problems with the title...peter Jackson was capable of getting the book and give it time on the screen to develop the story and the characters in one of the most beautiful fantasy roller coaster ever made. Even better of the lord of the rings trilogy.
The editing is astounding, the musics are coherent all over the story and to dye for while photography its the best you can get at the movies.
Right on top he redefined what colossal means and weta its the king of the hill when it comes too graphics way ahead of their competition.
Hands down "the hobbit" its not only the best movie i have seen in 2012 but by far the best fantasy, action oriented, adaptation of a fantasy book to date. So loyal that manages to fill in the gaps that Tolkien wasn't allowed to put in the original story and left as notes about it.
So whats the big noise about it? Well, thanks to the techniques used the movie can be disturbing, AT FIRST, because it looks real and thats weird for us to adapt to but going back to standard definition after it its tough. Another problem is that its not a stupid movie. Mind me, it has 1 and an 1/2 hours of chasing, fighting in such a pyrotechnic way that can only please but it has even time to let you think and admire the gorgeous world thats being unfolded in front of your eyes. Our generation of viewers doesn't agree too much with that. We are going towards a video game/cinema style of stories and "the hobbit" isn't that. The hobbit i quintessential, mind blowing, innovating great cinema and peter Jackson is, without any doubt, in the directors Olympus of our time. Thanks again mate. From Bad taste till today you really made us "movie nerds" less lonely all over the world. Enjoy your cuppa, you made a masterpiece (and the dark side that signs your works its always there and thank god for that!!!).
