Speaking of insane Spainyards and Mazinger:

Let me say something about the Ho’Butt (Hobbit). SPOILERS GUYS SO DONT READ PAST THIS POINT MY BAD!!
Well done movie, great visuals, everything that is needed to get LOTR fans into the theaters was all there. So was Peter Jacksoffs story telling, about taking something and stretching it out further than it should.
If the movie didnt focus on 50 percent walking, there can be at least 2 movies instead of everyone walking, talking, OH AWESOME A FIGHT OF SOME KIND, more walking and talking, and then movie ends.
When I saw this, i was in theater seats that wasnt comfortable after 20 minutes, so my mood was already bad. Plus I didn’t know this was another 3 movie epic. So I kinda knew where this movie was going at the final battle where that dwarf dude didn’t kill the freaking troll or whatever, and you see the damn mountain off in the freaking distance. I had to lean forward in my seat and squent my eyes to see what the hell that thing was, then said to myself “Damn you Jackson, you did it again, because you have money.”
Was it in the books that freaking PIDGINS SAVE THE CHARACTERS? ARE YOU SERIOUS?
My brother doesn’t see my viewpoint on this film, because he is a LOTR fan, and his cannot be bargained or reasoned with when it comes to telling him this series has its flaws. I have not read the books, but I can assume its much better than the films in story telling.
