Great podcast but why bag on the Hobbit?
I really appreciated the reviews and analysis presented in this podcast and I learned a few things that I was not fully aware of that helps link the characters from the second age to the third age. That being said, with respect to the Peter Jackson films, I can’t understand why the need to treat the Hobbit films like it was The Phantom Menace. There were some pretty cringe worth moments in LOTR too, but everyone in the LOTR fan base loves these films. I feel like the Hobbit movie in many ways is being treated like the Hobbit book. I think most people don’t understand the purpose of the Hobbit was to tell the back story of the ring and introduce people into the LOTR in an easy to digest story. It seems every aficionado movement has its bane. Star Wars fans hate the prequels, oenophiles can’t stand Chardonnay or Merlot, and Hipsters hate Coachella. There seems to be a huge LOTR fan base that already hates the ROP series but so guess that is to be expected.
