I have a dream.

Rating: 3/10 (28 May 2015)

I remember when I was a kid and watched the animated film The Hobbit, how desperately I hoped that someday a director would undertake to make a movie that was a faithful adaptation of the book.
I still have that hope.
This is not to say that Lord of the Rings episodes I-III are not a good movie in their own right. however, when you consider that The Hobbit was just that - Bilbo Baggins' story of his own journey. Peter Jackson, by turning it into a three movie epic saga has padded a one inch thick book to the same size as the three two inch thick books of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. as much as I admire the stellar job he did on LOTR, the bloat job he did on the Hobbit is blatant disrespect for Tolkien's literary work.
