A little smile formed when reading about the little one being wary of the spiders :)<br /><br />Lastly, you awoke a thought: How will the Smaug-model be done? In plastic or "fine"-cast? How much will they decrease the size of the monster? I would in fact like it better if it is playable, not that I am likely to buy it, but still... a playable monster is, in my mind, better than a pure collector's item.Llamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17911664680967354153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33886045.post-25299047114598095912013-12-18T12:24:04.220+13:002013-12-18T12:24:04.220+13:00Nice review Scott.

Story changes aside, my lone critique was the fact that they spun off a bunch of 5-6 story subplots and didn't wrap up any of them. The third movie is going to be packed! el zorrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02074174383236578390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33886045.post-61658630208117039712013-12-17T12:32:46.066+13:002013-12-17T12:32:46.066+13:00Great recap and review Scott.

I was wondering how they were going to do Beorn. Luckily they didn't have dogs walking on hind legs serving cups of tea like the book!Pilgrimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13929492317329484386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33886045.post-47763908636540882652013-12-17T12:27:38.168+13:002013-12-17T12:27:38.168+13:00I started reading this then decided to stop.

A very nice movie with nice fast action scenes, especially if you are watching the HFR 3D version! Smaug scenes could be less though. In particular, the giant dwarf scene was not necessary. dramatic katastaseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15889506573733493015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33886045.post-12239657329667073322013-12-17T01:45:00.701+13:002013-12-17T01:45:00.701+13:00I am waiting for am three films to be finished, th...I am waiting for am three films to be finished, then I will get them and watch them on the bounce.<br /><br />The starting is the important bit so glad you have got it going<br /><br />IanIanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17113835961977211021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33886045.post-12886534458347874972013-12-17T01:09:59.272+13:002013-12-17T01:09:59.272+13:00Good to see they've picked up the pace.
