There is no way this is horrible or one star. It made me fly back ten years and clutch my chair instead of disappointment

Rating: 8/10 (10 January 2015)

First of all, you people who tend to be in the fandom never cease to amuse me. You all remind me of tumblr and the likes and the never ending fighting there about who is the righterestest. Whatever you can'T tell me this was AS bad as some depict it. First of all, yes I'm biased. I loved LOTR I loved Jacksons' universe, and it amazed me back then in '02 how it was so detailed, dark and well-made. And I already had notices and known the differences between original fiction and PJ's creation.
I haven't read the Hobbit. WHy? I don't know but believe me I will after this so I can laugh at you all expecting.. whatever you are expecting. Ahem. So, you all complain about Tauriel... you serious. You all read Lotr okay, Arwen had like two columns in the whole set of wonderful books and it was all about pretty much just giving some information about her and Aragorn's love. There was no Arwen fighting, no her dying as noticeably as in the movie, he didn't even really know that s..t right then just felt about her fading away and hell no Elrond giving the sword that had originally been already given in the first book.(Okay it was a long time ago I've read it but even being 13 I understood why Jackson decided to give him and her that much screen time...jeebus people).
What, long fight scenes? So what, they're still well made. Not Tolkien like characters? Again go back to Gimli and Legolas, Arwen, most of the human characters back in Lotr, they were changed and changed the good way and for a reason - to fit into a modern storyline. This movie well; probably Jackson tried to make it bigger than what it could have ever been-wouldn't you want to do the same? I understand and I saw the flaws as well, but you honestly can't just tell me about bad acting...I have seen that floating around here. Even I admit the fighting was awfully long, certain things weren't the best, I gave it 10 because the whole Jackson franchise taught me a lot and that's how I learnt about Tolkien's works.
And moreover, there is no way I couldn't enjoy a movie like this, even if it wasn't because of my undoubted love for this whole atmosphere -which Jackson delivered no matter what you fan boys tell me, costumes, settings, camera shots, music was just right - but because of the movie itself-if you know what mean. I kind of felt like though he tried to go on the feels train - not just putting that romance in there, but about trying to recreate his past success for the sake of nostalgia (and yeah money I know).
There is no way I would give it 1 star-you serious, even Twilight would receive 2 from me for the setup (and the parody dub) and I hate that monstrous disgusting piece of turd with my heart. Go away with the comparison to LOTR - this is not LOTR, not enough material, not enough storyline, even the characters don't have time to evolve in those aforementioned few hundred pages. He put too much of suspense in it, and I really expected him to deliver some extra from the vast amount of information Tolkien gave about the whole universe (yes I'm an elf-shipper and there would have been so much to put into these movies as subtle story lines instead of fully focusing on the non-existent elf lady and the dwarf love.) Overall, go away people with being 'AH SO Disappoint JEEBUS' I can't stand that. What the hell did you expect from a really short book? I expected more of what I have mentioned above, yeah, but no way I would say this was an 'absolute disappointment'- that would be weak and childish without considering what these movies are actually based on.
