And don't get me started on DoS. That was 'Phantom Menace'-level disappointment. It's a garbage film that shouldn't exist, the stale outside pieces of the end of the first film and start of the second.

 Good to know I'm not the only one comparing The Hobbit movies to the SW PT.  Peter Jackson has really gone crazy with some of his stuff.  I didn't mind the lengths, it's the fact the films are filled with bloated over-long action scenes.  I don't mind long scenes with dialogue (they remind me of a play), but three films could have given room to so much more character development.  The DOS EE better be 40 minutes extra of nothing but character development.

And don't even get me started on the CGI-fest...one thought ROTS was bad.
