The Hobbit

 I greatly enjoyed it.  I felt that the stuff added in from the appendices worked and helped to set the story in the context of the larger events going on in Middle Earth.  Martin Freeman was perfectly cast as Bilbo and my favourite part of the move is watching him get all flustered, while trying to be very British and polite as he is descended on by an army of dwarves all looking for something to eat.

And they sing!  They do the dish-breaking song!

I wasn't greatly sold on the endlessly collapsing walkways under the mountains, but I suspect many will love them.

The visuals of Erebor before the arrival of the dragon are virtually worth the price of admittance on their own.  It's beautiful.

I think Jackson has made one change in the timeline.  .( Thrain )
