ChiefsPlanet - Movies and TV *The NEW Movies Thread*

Damn it man. I still need to see both of the Hobbit movies. It's just hard for me to sit down for 3 hours and watch a movie with my schedule recently. I've heard so many mixed reviews about these movies. Some of my friends say they're amazing. Some say they're kinda shitty. I absolutely LOVED all the LOTR flicks though.

I just re-watched them over the weekend.

I also loved LOTR and was playing Skyrim for a bit so I was seriously jonesing to see something related to the genre. I liked The Hobbit much more than The Desolation of Smaug, to be honest. Both were good though.

I liked both of them and am looking forward to the third. They aren't as epic in scale as LOTR, though.

You absolutely without a doubt should see these movies. If you loved the LOTR movies, you will greatly appreciate these. No question.

FMB had issues with the physics of the movies and gave it a negative rating for what I thought was a great couple films. But watch them for sure and form your own opinion. I thought they were great, and I bet you will too...

Overall, I've found them overly effects driven, humor for children complete with fart jokes, full of ridiculous action sequences designed for video games, and generally less engaging than any one of the three LOTR movies. And the above has grown with subsequent viewings. So no, my problem was certainly not just a physics thing.

Tell me you are dyslexic and there wasn't a sequel to Jarhead.

I don't know what it is about just seeing LOTR just annoys me to no end.

I hated that POS film with the power of a 1,000 Suns.

I ****ing loved those movies. It's tough to watch them these days though. You have to designate like a week to get through them all..

Shit, that's amateur hour. The last several times my wife and I have watched them we've done 'em all in one day, back-to-back-to-back. You lack dedication.

Seems like you need an entire day just to watch the conclusion of the last movie.

Tough to disagree. The end of ROTK drag on and on.

I've probably watched about 2 minutes total of LoTRs. And that was when I was in the waiting room at my mechanic.

All times are GMT -6. The time now is 10:59 AM.
