Oh well. I'm glad you think Smaug looked like Cumberbatch too, I halfway thought it was mostly my imagination because it doesn't seem possible to make a dragon look like a human, yet, they did it! But you're right, we probably shouldn't be all that surprised with it being PJ's work. :) Haha, oh yes, the Bombur barrel roll... it was funny after two orcs, but then it just went way too far. Have you seen the How It Should Have Ended video for this? The joke at the very end definitely sums up my thought on the subject. :PSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08901639281043602191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076471470585210140.post-67512205461311702582014-01-20T07:20:39.649-05:002014-01-20T07:20:39.649-05:00I have returned after watching the movie!
Legolas...I have returned after watching the movie!<br /><br />Legolas eye’s did look different, and Bloom has definitely gained quite a bit of weight, which made him look a little odd, but I compared a picture of him from the LOTR and DOS and his looked basically the same. I am not sure what was different.<br />Smaug floored me. I was almost in shock by his enormity. I agree, Smaug actually did look like Cumberbatch. The motion capture used was very impressive, although I shouldn’t be surprised since this is Peter Jackson directing the movie and he basically perfected the art. <br />The only thing that I can say that I did not like was that Bombur completely ignores the laws of physics during his barrel fight thing.<br /><br />-James<br />James the Reviewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00165238905288033483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076471470585210140.post-53834887772438830812013-12-19T11:15:25.883-05:002013-12-19T11:15:25.883-05:00Cool, I'll keep an eye out for it!

Concentrating on the good (and there's bunches of it in this movie!) is so much more rewarding. :)Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08901639281043602191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076471470585210140.post-51940768712819413392013-12-19T11:04:32.754-05:002013-12-19T11:04:32.754-05:00I'll look forward to it!

You've voiced most of my own thoughts here. There was some stuff in this film that I really didn't appreciate but there was far more about it that I loved. Are these Hobbit movies as good as the book? No but I'm still loving them anyway :) Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08112080523452829647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076471470585210140.post-54294338554929136682013-12-18T06:58:51.571-05:002013-12-18T06:58:51.571-05:00I will have to come back and comment after I watch...I will have to come back and comment after I watch the movie! :)<br /><br />-JamesJames the Reviewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00165238905288033483noreply@blogger.com
