I also wished the name “There and Back Again” h*d been kept.

It’s pretty much the original title that actually ties this trilogy to Jackson’s other trilogy.

How about this title: They’re All About To Fight Over the Gold, But Then The Goblins Show Up So They Fight Them Instead, But Unlike The Book Thorin Doesn’t Die. Oh, The Goblins Lose”.

Oops, I probably shouldn’t have posted a spoiler.

As a Tolkien junkie, I was happy when they decided to make the LOTR and then The Hobbit, but as time went by I became increasingly disappointed with the ‘artistic license’ taken by Jackson in LOTR. My opinion is The Hobbit is a bit better but all the ‘license’ ruined the movies.

When I’m a famous film maker I will right the wrongs. The road goes ever on and on! haha.

“may the hair between your toes never fall out” best line of the book.

seriously when they bloated the book into THREE movies, i knew they were milking the cow. the declining popularity of the hobbit sage bears this out.

very disappointed, but then jackson has to make some money to offset his past few disaster films (king kong, etc..)

So, is this finally the end of “The Milking Of ‘The Hobbit’”? Next up is “The Milking Of ‘The Silmarillion’”. You know it’s going to happen.

Here’s another synopsis: These Movies Are Nothing Like The Book.
