I rewatched The Hobbit in HD. (lemmy.sdf.org)

And apparently they are awesome. Metro Goldwyn Mayer - again - did some great filming.

When I initially watched the hobbit parts, I was mad about not respecting the books. They kinda did, I know realize. In HD, and in native language these movies are a piece of art.

I had a very strong opinion about how bad they were - but I reconsidered. Even the lead actor Bilbo I opposed - He did a remarkable act. Anyhow. American influence hits hard, once it does. Started at some safari show with a lion named Clarence. Don't know the name but I loved it - as fair as I can remember.

Love all, but Some.

Oh boy, fan edits! I think I only watched the M4 edit, might have gotten the name wrong. Was pretty good and only one or twonthings are a bit weird because of cuts.

I know, wouldn't usually mention one but TE was reasonably clean for what it set out to achieve.

This is the one I watched and enjoyed it. It’s really crazy how much was added. The only glaring thing for me was Thorin’s teleporting sword, and only a fan watching would really notice.
