Looking forward to seeing this last film later this week.

[Bromptonboy]

I'll see it this week as well I think.  Might take a half day..

Saw it today in digital 3D. I thought it was great fun with some nice character moments. It's also a sprawling mess. :)

[Bromptonboy]

Worth the 3D premium?

Worth the 3D premium?

Same as the others, sometime yes, sometimes no. One thing I will say that is not a spoiler, the efforts to tie this to LOTR in e first two were well done. In this movie they relied way too much on reminding you this is a LOTR prequel.

[Bromptonboy]

Hmmm..well, I'll probably shell out for 3D then.

Today I finally saw "The Hobbit" 3, 3-D, HFR, and any other initials you want to add, etc... Good end to the saga and I enjoyed it. Tauriel was my favorite of Jackson's additions by far. But I won't be going to another HFR (high frame rate) film again. Just didn't care for that HFR look at all.

Oh, and I need this piece of art! 

[Bromptonboy]

I will see this film over the week.  Maybe I'll avoid the extra $'s for the extras.
