I have now seen "The Hobbit" (part 1)
Dec. 19th, 2012 11:11 amI think all the flaws have been pretty well addressed by Genevieve Valentine, in her post "Ten Things You Should Know About the Hobbit". Martin Freeman is awesome. Born to play Bilbo.

I can't comment on the awesomeness or fake-looking-ness of 48 frames per second, because I watched the movie in 2D. I refuse to wear an extra pair of glasses to watch a movie; wearing one pair is enough of a hassle for me.
But, all that being said, I was just so pleased to see Middle Earth again. Bilbo is great. Gandalf is great. We get to see Elrond and Galadriel again. (Which felt unnecessary to me, but I do like seeing them.) And if Peter Jackson produced a movie called "Hobbits Read the Alphabet", set in the Shire or Rivendell, I would totally pay full price to go see that for 3 hours.
