This Theory Perfectly Explains Why 'The Hobbit' Movies Were So Bad

Huffington Post

Look, some of us liked "The Hobbit" trilogy. They're not the perfect movies, but it's a perfect adventure. Oh, and there's a dragon who's a total baller.

Other people, however, didn't really appreciate the films. In fact, they really hated them.

The criticism has been that the movies were overly exaggerated, there was too much CGI and it didn't need to be stretched into a trilogy. Now, a fan theory suggests the films were actually meant to be a little ridiculous and needlessly drawn out.

Whoever said the hobbit movies were bad?? Critics, you just don't understand them. Maybe you like other preference but don't generalize that what is good for you is good for them.

KingPin3159d ago

there were plenty of LOTR fans who thought the hobbit was trash.

FreddyFazbear3159d ago

How many is plenty? Im very sure there are more people who likes the hobbit than those who do not. Fans are the most critical. Just like marvel fans. No matter how good a marvel movie is, some vocal group will always find a way to critique the movie. Imo the hobbit is a good and descent film but i admit LOTR is still better. But this is the same director we are talking about who gave life to LOTR, who better to direct the hobbit right? Its the story of the movie which makes or breaks a film.

i wondering that too. this film got a lot of good reviews everywhere. the 3rd hobbit film made more money than the first 2 hobbit films

First one was ok, second was better, third was trash.

I loved them and im a massive LOTR nerd. You ain't ever going to revisit middle earth on the big screen again, well not in this lifetime, so appreciate them for what they are.

I second that, the hobbit movies were great for LOTR fans.

I think it could have also been fatigue from the series that has been setting in for those who aren't fans of the franchise...

I have yet to see the final Hobbit film, but I enjoyed the first two so far. I see no need to compare them to LOTR as obviously those films have a special place given that we've had them for longer (and they were more eye-catching at the time they were released).

Um they weren't bad...they could have balanced certain elements better but they are not bad films by any stretch.
