I liked it. I thought the first one sucked but this one was action packed. Way cooler fight sequencing. I fell asleep in the first one but I'd watch this one again.
 
I don't get the dragons though. The dragons in LOTR were cool ... microcephalic flying lizards with a sound like gastroliths grinding against each other with you between them. Smaug was, like, Puff the Magic Meth Dragon or something. I wanted to ask him how many licks in a Tootsie Pop.
 
Peter Jackson was unable to channel J.R.R. Tolkien unfortunately. Smaug was a god of destruction.
 
Wow! Havent seen pt. 2 yet but considering what you guys are reporting about it it sounds like Jackson really... missed it with Smaug. Thats a shame but I still wont miss out on seeing it. Already excited to see how he does with The War of 5 Armies.
 
I went into the first one thinking that was gonna be it. It was so damn long, by the time I realized that it was only part 1 of however many that man is going to make...I was too pissed to see the others. My sister saw it and said it was alright. I am still recovering

I enjoyed the LOTR series.. Except for the 1st Hobbit.. since it was visually kinda lame compared to the others.. action wise.. also

but Wifey LOVES the series and we bought the 1st DVD and glad to hear the 2nd is better....

There isnt dragons in Lotr, they are differnt cretures called the nazgul,

Also compaired to the book the hobbit part 2 is completly differnt, there is almost no fightng in this section of the book, Peter Jackons has added in action secnes to make it similar to Lotr

Dont get me wrong the Hobbit part 1 and 2 are great cinematic peices but the book is better, I prefer Lotr but maby thats because I didnt read the Lotr books

The Percy Jackson books totally rocked. I only saw the first movie; it suuucked. Don't write Smaug off just because of Puffzilla; 90% of the movie rocked.

I was under the impression that the Nazgûl were the Ringwraiths, the undead residue of the kings who accepted the Nine Rings. They rode dragons in the second and third LOTR movies.

Ringwraith's were human kings, Nazgul is the flying beast.

Movies are aight, book is the real masterpiece.
