What I don't get, is if he was doing 3 films on The Hobbit, he could of recited the book nearly word for word. But instead he choose to do those 3 films of garbage. Why? And Martin Freeman as Bilbo. Why? Legolas. Why? That stupid love story with Kili (or was it Fili?). Why? Radagast. Why? Gandalf getting cosy with Galadriel. Why? I mean, just why?

The only thing missing from the books was what Gandalf got up to in Dol Guldor. But Jackson even got that wrong. WHY????
I thought Martin Freeman as Bilbo was one of the few redeeming qualities of the trilogy. The others would be the scenery (both natural and created), and the score. What I hate about them is you are baited into seeing the extended editions just to see if it makes more sense. In part it does, but sitting through 3.5 hours of it is not worth the added clarity.

Not to me. Although there was humour in the book, Bilbo came across more reserved and dignified. Martin Freeman's characters always have a slight humour through stupidity/slapstick stance that I feel does injustice to how I interepted Bilbo. Having said that, I did think Martin Freemans' acting was spot on, just the wrong typecast for Bilbo
