The Hobbit (film series) Review: Part 1

12/19/2013

It's been described as "transparently indulgent," "elaborately verbose," and "just really, really long." Based on the imaginative children's book by J. R. R. Tolkien, The Hobbit (film series) seeks to change the classic Middle-earth narrative in just about every way.

"We figured, why NOT take a simple, accessible kids' book and turn it into a three-part, nine-hour slog through Peter Jackson's psyche?" said a source close to the film. Indeed, the Hobbit film trilogy dumps the book's best asset—accessibility—right at Bilbo's door. While some have wondered whether making "multiple movies" each "so damn long" would turn off new potential fans to the The Lord of the Rings forever, Warner Bros. isn't worried.

"Do you even know how the movie industry works?" said a studio representative. "You're seriously asking me about creative decisions. Creativity. Wow. You really have no idea. This is about money. It's always about money."

Of course, money is just one of the many themes present in the film series' second entry, The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug. When Bilbo first...

End of part one. Tune in next year for the second part of Ben's 3-part Hobbit review! Although he only has enough content to warrant a single post, he figures he can "milk at least three articles out of it" because "that's how stupid people are." Happy Holidays from TheCroakingFrog!

I promise to share my testimony to the world once my wife returns back to me, and today with all due respect I want to say a very big thanks to (HAKEEM AHMED) for the wonderful work he did for me in helping me to save my marriage, my wife ask for a divorce letter because of the little misunderstanding we had in the past few month, And i never wanted this because I love my wife so much and all our investments was a joint business and I don't want to be far away from my family and my two lovely kids. My friend told me about (HAKEEM AHMED) and how he also helped him with his marital issues, so I had to contact him because I want to stop my wife from completing the divorce letter and I want to keep my family together and after contacting him, I was told what I needed to do and when I was going to start seeing the result, I did as (HAKEEM) instructed and after 3 days my wife called me and start asking for my forgiveness and it was all like a dream to me and we are all living happily together again all thanks to (HAKEEM) .

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga.

How can I recover my money from a fake Bitcoin investment website?Lost Recovery Masters

I lost about £746,000 pounds worth of Crypto to a fake investment trading platform that tricked me into investing on their platform with the intent of earning a 15% daily profit. I was losing it all to a point that I couldn't afford to take care of my bills and my Family.I was very disappointed with myself and was drowning in shame. I had to do a google search and came across Lost Recovery Masters, a cryptocurrency recovery company who are experts in recovering stolen and lost crypto funds.

I am Jackie from New Jersey. When the 'Ghost Traders' inboxed me on the potentiality of tenfold returns, i caved in. If you have sen the numerous ads running on the same traders, you will definitely be interested to invest, but in this case, I think it was a ploy of the same account by fraudsters. My investment totally came to $400,000 over time in the promise of helping me in trading Bitcoin. Soon afterwards, the whole website went missing, no traces. And my money with it. Was a pretty low moment for me. Fast forward to finding TheexnerhackerATprotonmailDOTcom. and I shared my nightmare with them. I had given them 12 hours to comlete the necessary but beat me to it, recovering all my money in 6 hours. A quick tip to share as I was personally advised is, if your hacker takes too long to get back your funds/crypto after you have provided all the requirements, seek help somewhere alse. thank you THE EXNER HACKER for the solid.

My name is Hailey Garcia and I am from New Jersey. My herpes virus turned to war after 2 years of living with it. I have tried different medical procedures to cure my herpes but to no avail. Most people think herpes is only a minor skin irritation of which herpes has long term effects on health and passes through the bloodstream and can be easily contracted through sexual intercourse. I knew I had herpes from the first day I started feeling itchy in my pubic area and the pain was very unbearable. I couldn't stand it anymore. After 2 years of trying other means to get rid of it, I had to contact Doctor Odunga to help me with a permanent cure. I saw his email and whats-app number from a testimony I read online from a lady who was also helped by him in curing infertility problems, I had faith and contacted him. He assured me of his work and I ordered his herbal medicine. Within 5 days, I didn't feel any pain anymore and within 2 weeks, my skin was all cleared and smooth. I am very grateful to you sir and I write this testimony as others have done to bring those having faith to you sir. If you have herpes or other similar disease and you want it cured, kindly contact Doctor Odunga, Whats-App (wa.me/+2348167159012) OR Email [email protected]

My sincere gratitude goes to THE EXNER HACKER services. This guy came through for me big time. I didn’t anticipate, at all, ever getting my funds back. The Sky West investment company dissolved with all of my funds in it. It was a fraudulent company faking to help investors put their money in a productive state. May it be investment, forex, or cryptocurrency. Whatever form you would wish to invest your funds in. $490,000 of mine would have been long gone if The Exner Hacker hadn’t shed light and led the way into gaining back my funds. May you remain blessed sir. Email: TheexnerhackerATprotonmailDOTcom

Contact Great Odunga at [email protected] OR Whats App/CALL +2348167159012

I got my ex husband back to me and also got fertile and gave birth to twin girls after 12 years of marriage.
When I came online last year, I saw a testimony about Great Odunga and how he has been helping people with marriage issues and I decided to contact him. We spoke on email at [email protected] and later he gave me his Whats-App number which is +2348167159012. He assured me he would help me get my ex husband back after 3 years of no contact. Great Odunga is the best spell caster I must say. My husband called me after 24 hours of contact. The third day, I received natural herbs for fertility and after using it, I became fertile and conceived. My husband and I reconnected, had sex and I was pregnant. Presently I am happy to say I am the mother of twin girls and this is ALL THANKS TO YOU GREAT ODUNGA. I came online to say this: If you need help, I believe you are saved with this man.

My husband had the habit of always texting and fixing dates with his old friends including his exes. I never thought there was a problem with such until he became emotionally withdrawn from me and started acting abnormal towards me and my daughter. At this point I knew I needed help urgently because I never wanted to loose him. Dr Isikolo came to my rescue and the problem was fixed. One my husband’s ex vowed to ensure she takes him from him and started manipulating him to abandon me and my daughter which would have eventually happened if Dr Isikolo didn’t stepped in to help me. Just after 48 hours after fixing the problem, everything became amazing between me and my husband and now he has apologized for everything and we are good again. Contact Dr Isikolo and believe he will surely fix that problem for you. click on his webpage and see more details about his good works. https://isikolo-temple.com or WhatsApp him on +2348133261196
