Finally saw The Hobbit. Put off seeing it partly because everyone was moaning about it, and partly because I didn't want to spend over 3 hours in a cinema over xmas. But I loved it. Thought it dealt with all the problems of the book magnificently, and Gollum was absolutely a jot to behold (Serkis MUST have earned an Oscar by now). My only criticism is I would've liked the giant fight to last a bit longer.
So the question is: why the hell did everyone moan about it?
