The LotR Trilogy are my all time favorite movies and the contrast couldn’t be greater. Really goes to show what a perfect storm it was that we got the movies we got with LotR.
There’s a fan cut out there on the high seas, where they basically condensed those three shitty movies into one which follows the book as close as possible.
That one is bearable and as far as I am concerned the official Hobbit movie now.
I’m more of a usenet sailor, but the Pirate Bay seems to have “The Hobbit M4 Book Edit” available. It seems to be the most liked edit, although it is rather long, there are shorter ones available (see the linked post).
Maybe in the sense that they were aiming to be a long epic similar to the LotR, rather than the fun adventure the book that the Hobbit book is.
But i’d say that there are far more issues than just that.
For me it might be the Hobbit Trilogy.

Any links to movie or group

Awesome, I haven’t heard of this before! I’m trying to download it via torrent from their website but it seems like it has zero seeds though 😭
There’s a direct download for the m4 version on the internet archive.
aha! tysm!
The problem with the Hobbit movies was that they were too much like the Lord of the Rings movies.

Omg yes. The Hobbit movies were so terrible.
Imo worse than just them being bad is the gap between their quality and the potential of what could have been.
Absolutely and factor who made them.
