Nice. I like the idea of having Legolas and Kate Austen in the film. Jackson has earned the right, and I would imagine the trust of the vast majority of fans, to add a character or two into his adaptations.

Was there never a full thread on this flick?

Just did a couple searches and this is the only thread I could find!!!

I wanted to see what people's opinions were of the movie.

To me:

• Movie was incredibly long.
• The dragon was very, very cool.
• Barrel scene was a bit too video-gamey to me. One dwarf's barrel hopped the river three times. Just a bit much.

It was discussed some in the Winter Box Office thread. I remember criticizing Jason Evans for complaining about the length of the movie, saying something about how anyone who invests their time in a Peter Jackson movie knows what he (or she, but really he) is getting into. Even if he isn't bloated anymore, his movies are. I gave up after The Fellowship of the Ring.

When it comes to time management, he may be the worst human being ever.

Oh, personal foul for a low blow.

Awesome though.
