Maybe I’m influenced from his other roles, but I feel like Martin Freeman doesn’t have that same kind of inherent optimism and joyfulness that the hobbits in the LOTR trilogy did. He seems a bit more reserved and cynical. But again this could just be me knowing the actor’s personality rather than the performance.

IMO, the main problems with the Hobbit movies are (a) the overextended dull action scenes, and (b) the cringy stuff from the book that they couldn't leave out. Remove these elements and you'd have a much better trilogy, because there is lots of other stuff in the movies that is excellent.

Watched a video about this just yesterday. Tolkien actually changed the Riddles in the Dark scene after The Hobbit was already published. Originally, Gollum just gave the Ring to Bilbo because he won the game. But, later on Tolkien decided that he wanted to do something more with the Ring and with Gollum's character progression it became unlikely he'd ever give it up willingly.

The editors argument between Ben and Laurence on what song James and Maso were talking about was hilarious

Dear Mason, One reason the songs, "Take it Easy" and, "Hotel California," sound so different could be because "Take it Easy" was originally written by Jackson Browne who lived next door to Glen Fry. Browne never finished the song so he gave it to Fry who finished writing it and recorded it with The Eagles. Jackson Browne eventually recorded his own version as well.

I get the same feeling on HD TVs when people don´t have the movie-filter on.

The Hobbit movies hold a special place in my heart, even though so much of them just doesn't work. I grew up obsessed with the LOTR movies, watched them dozens of times, but never got to experience them in theaters as I was a kid when they came out. So having THREE new movies coming out that would take me back to that world was a miracle to me. I waited all year for the premiere, I saw each Hobbit movie at least 3 times in theaters and would rewatch them endlessly at home, buy the LEGO sets and just obsess over them. Rewatching them now, they really aren't that great. But I can't help but love them just the same❤

Apparently one of the reasons films in high frame rates can look really fake is that the closer film motion is to reality (ie a frame rate that is closer to imperceptible) for us, the higher our brains set the "bar" for accepting the reality that is presented. So films running at 24 fps, whereby the frame rate is perceptible, also serves a secondary purpose of detaching the film from reality just enough that the mind gives what it sees on screen a little bit more plausibility.

The Hobbit trilogy is frustrating because there ARE traces of a better movie in there! The "Riddles in the Dark"-scene with Gollum was great and straight out of the book, Martin Freeman is great as Bilbo, Ian McKellen is wonderful as Gandalf as always, Smaug looks fantastic and there are some rare good heartfelt moments especially between Bilbo & Thorin and Bilbo & Gandalf. If they had kept it as one or even two movies, and relied on miniatures and costumes instead of CGI, it could have worked.

Ive struggled with writing the action scenes my entire life and ive accepted at this point i just cannot write them. Which is a problem when a lot of the books and stories have grand large fights. So Im going to put the whole story together with notes about side characters, plot points, restrictions on what side stories are allowed to be and whatnot. Big issue today is all these side stories and plots that people either have no interest in watching or dont have time to. Losing out on critical info. My side stories and characters will exist to deepen the lore, expand on the characters backstory and motives, but never progress the main plot. Those should be easter eggs and little nods or some extra depth versus advancing the main plotline. Im thinking i can work out a game or two, like 8 seasons of a tv show and a few movies and some side tangent shows. If i ever get a deal worked out ill link a reply about that.

I remember genuinely enjoying Bilbo & the first movie, then feeling strung along and rolling my eyes halfway through the second. Then just being mad by the cliffhanger ending that could have taken 15 minutes to show smaug burning the town and dying. They could have easily just made it 2 movies...by the time the third came out I didnt care, or even really know what they were supposed to be doing. Lots of pointless filler in the movies for padding. They knew audiences would show up just like star wars. I still think The Hobbit is better than the Sequel Trilogy.

In the defense of The Hobbit I do have to touch on what James said about who cares if Smaug joins Sauron. While Sauron does have many flying creatures at his disposal, none can compare to the destruction Smaug could cause. On top of it all, Smaug is practically invulnerable unless you hit him in his only weak spot. Rohan/Helms Deep would have been nothing for Smaug and he could''ve easily changed the fate of Middle Earth.

Yeah, i think Maso is underestimating how valuable Smaug would be to Sauron, as the last sentient dragon on middle earth. Getting him would be like getting a Stradivarius Kazoo, sure he's no Ancalagon, but he's still a Dragon, the last of Morgoth's great creations The weird Chickens the Nazgul ride come nowhere close to eclipsing smaug, even the eagles soundly countered them, even with their riders by them. But Smaug is an nigh-impenetrable, fire breathing fortress with one chink in his mail. Sauron would win simply by having Smaug by his side I think a better analogy for Smaug joining Sauron would be adding a F-22 raptor to a medieval army

As a child I never watched any lord of the rings movies. So my cousins and I would go Christmas shopping with our grandma and watch a movie in cinemas and the movie they chose that year was battle of 5 armies so the only thing that was more entertaining than starting with the finale movie in a 6 movie series but also watching my 74 year old grandma who doesn’t understand anything fantasy try to figure out what is going on. 😂

The hobbit movies are my guilty pleasure comfort movies(mostly because of lotr). Sure sure sure theyre all around, all together maybe ..."not that good". Some of the moments and the tone though hit on a different level. The beginning with Frodo and the almost quote for quote of the good morning scene. The troll scene brought to life. The second movie was rather good. Yeah it didnt stick the landing but the over all tone and theme of accepting a journey and wild ride it takes you on and as much as you want to get home and it was tiring...the journey is still all you talk about and think about

I rewatch your videos anyways, I’m more than okay with you squishing them together!

I remember going to see the battle of the five armies when I was younger and towards the end of the movie the fire alarm went off, so we got free tickets to see it again so I got to sit through that twice.

"And in the book it's revealed his wife took it all in the divorce, so he doesn't have any of that stuff" 😂

Fun fact, the visual software harvester couldnt actually pick up on the green screen so a lot of the scenes were messed up. In order to fix it, they switched over to a blue screen and that seemed to do the trick. Funny enough, they ended up calling the movie Blue Harvester because of this

Fun fact: It was rumored that Peter Jackson was going to include the mysterious blue wizards, Alatar and Pallando, but they were cut from an early draft which is why the working title was Blue Harvest.

28:15 Agreed. The Hobbit is one of my favourite books of all time. Which is one of the reasons why the padding in these films brought me down. Too many wasted scenes either milking LOTR nostalgia or shoehorning this story into that. I also wish we got to see the Ian Holm-led Del Toro Hobbit film, too.

I'd strongly recommend the M4 Book Edit of the Hobbit movie, because it actually uses CG and Color Correction to unify the remaining footage of the movie, so you don't notice the stuff that was cut out. It's probably the best edit of the movie using the existing footage. Someday, someone will use AI to conjure up additional footage that will make the movie even better (and maybe even add in the footage of Dwalin fighting in the final battle that was shot but that never got special effects added to it,) but for now, the M4 Book Edit is the best we have.
