+ 1 to that
(even though the second film is marginally better than the first, it's still a disappointment)
Like 6pairsofshoes mentioned somewhere, I'd rather rely on my imagination and not have the film mess with my memories of the book.

And where was the 'desolation'?

I put films into distinct categories, this was a entertaining film with no thought required.
Was a children's book to begin with.

Post by: goldshirt*9 on February 16, 2014, 01:50:16 AM: Actually as per the thread title
So the Hobbit sucks what do you think?
The Hobbit, or There and Back Again is the book title.
The Hobbit - An Unexpected Journey
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug
The Hobbit: There and Back Again are the film titles.
