Be quick about it because I'm pondering over whether to invest in a viewing.

Too be honest I just don't care so feel free to take your time.

Have a good ponder, say six months to a year.

At this moment, all I can say is that no Steeds were harmed in the film.

I got a laugh out of the " war animals." The battle pig, battle sheep. Not the Pink Floyd album.

Good film though.

If you like the other ones, I think you'll like this one. I don't want to talk about it too much and ruin it for you. Tell me what you think after you see it.

By stretching it out into three movies is how. The second one just sucked it was so boring over much of it. Endless narrow escapes and running, and running, and running.....

Sure I liked some parts but overall it was a big yawn. Maybe this one will be better but I'll wait until the Blu-ray is out.

I'm holding out for the boxed directors set to go with my Lord of the Rings set.

Dumb question, did they do a director's cut version for Hobbit 1 and 2?
