>Thranduil tells Legolas to meet up with the strider
>Rings 1 is 20 years later
What did Legolas do for 20 years?

Star Wars was the closest to it but Disney JUSTed it with no survivors.

Legolas did meet strider years before fellowship, it's clear they already knew each other.

thank god, it was so bad

>The Hobbit
>atmosphere and depth

What's the best fan edit of the hobbit?

generally the two movie cuts are better but they do retarded things like cutting the prologue (no idea why they don't insert it into the unexpected party scene like what happens) and they try to cut out Azog which doesn't work, and the Moria scene is one of the few good scenes. Also they keep too much laketown bullshit.

god, this scene
felt like 1 week before release some guy told PJ "oh shit man, we forgot about that scene!!"

I thought 1st Hobbit was pretty comfy. Not as good as LOTR but still decent. Fantastic main theme song too but it's never used again in the next two for some reason. Second one is shit for the most part but it has some great Smaug scenes towards the end. Third one is an abomination with no redeeming qualities.

It's been 10 years since i watched these. I want to chill one day and watch all 3 and maybe drink something comfy but i dont have a spare 3 hours in the day and i dont own a tv.

>Third one is an abomination with no redeeming qualities
All scenes with Thorin and Bilbo are pretty good.

You'll live long enough to see the black remake.

Main theme could have been memorable like the LotR one
Why the fuck didn't they use it more

I was thinking the other day, what if the tone and all the super stupid, over the top bullshit (like Legolas running up falling stones) happened, not because it actually happened, but because Bilbo thought that would make a more exciting tale.
What if the entire Hobbit trilogy is actually just the fictional/over the top version that Bilbo wrote about?

Maybe. I think Bilbo is also considered the only translator of first age elven stories into common speech (aka the silmarillion). That's one of the reasons he spent so much time in Rivendell.

Yeah..no. Peter Jackson is just a hack. The Oliphants scene in Return, that fucking brontosaurus scene in King Kong...

>tfw no re-edited cut where all 3 films are slimmed down to 2 like how Peter Jackson intended

You mean an official one? Because there's probably plenty of fan made ones.

You will laugh until Amazon inclusive series arrives

I think the problem is that in the Silmarillion, you have elves that manage to perform such incredible feats in combat that as a 21st century reader, you cannot help but picture them videogame heroes or dragonball characters, doing stuff that just looks stupid on a screen.

Afaik, only the result of these battles are described, never the means. We don't know how Feanor fought for days with orcs and multiple balrogs. We don't know how Fingolfin managed to not be immediately wrecked by Morgoth. We don't know how Earendil slew Ancalagon from a flying ship. We kinda know how Turin killed Glaurung (pic related), but thats it.

It's first age stuff, its kinda vague and it all sounds like the bible, which is why its so great, and why I think it shouldn't ever be shown on screen.
