>Are there still people out there that think the hobbit films are brilliant now after what jackson said.
Yes, there are.
The twist isIT IS ONLY YOU WHO THINKS THE HOBBIT FILMS ARE BRILLIANT AND NO ONE ELSE.
>>62888702
the first Hobbit movies wasn't that bad to be honest family
>>62888702
the Hobbit is rated highly only because good fantasy movies are rarer than unicorn shit. there less than 10 in existence.
always remember that it wasnt Jackson who wrote the Hobbit movies but Del Taco.
Hackson just filmed it and phoned that shit in.
>>62890483
Tolkein wrote them.
>>62890519
>Tolkein wrote them.
You obviously never read the original senpai.
>>62890317
OP here, jesus I don't think they're good at all I fucking hate them
The real tragedy is that because of Skyrim, GoT and Hackson THIS is what people think a dragon is when it's a fucking wyvern and it's killing all canon continuity in every high fantasy piece ever
>muh two less limbs to animate
fuck.off.

>>62891333
the first 35mins of AUJ captures the comfyness of FotR really well, but then it all goes to shit with the trolls and only gets worse throughout the rest of the trilogy
>>62891386
no you dont you spic cunt

Hey reddit!
all the movies got right was Bilbo and the Dwarves in Bag End and Bilbo meeting Gollum.
>>62891529
bilbo and smaug interaction was based as well
first movie 6/10
second movie 4/10
third movie 2/10
fellowship of the ring 9/10
two towers 8/10
return of the king 8.5/10
I still cant believe how bad the Hobbit turned out, its like 9 hours of the Phantom Menace
Jackson piqued with Two Towers then it all went down hill
>>62890415
Fellowship of the Ring
The Two Towers
The Return of the King
The Last Unicorn
Conan
Princess Mononoke
Nausicaa
Harry Potter 3
Pan's Labyrinth
Hellboy
Princess Bride
Legend
Excalibur

How do we know you're not a Redditor? How do you know ANY of us aren't Redditors? Does the all-consuming paranoia eat away at your sanity? Day by day? Post by post?

You realize the moment you brought anime in the mix you could have listed like 10 other anime fantasy movies rite?

Better than the original trilogy

I haven't seen Time Bandits, is it on a similar level of quality as the others?
>>62892147
watch it and find out ;^)
>>62892147
not the greatest in that list but yes it is
>>62892147
It kind of got marketed as a kid's movie because the main character is a kid but it's typical nutty Gilliam fare

>>62891429
The only part of AUJ that is worth watching is the ~8 minutes Serkis is on the screen. Fuck, him reprising Gollum was the only reason I even watched AUJ.
None of the acting across any of the 3 films can even hold a candle to Serkis.
Fuck the Oscars for continuing to ignore him, just because he isn't delivering a conventional form of acting.
>>62892147
It's actually a whole lot better than Labyrinth.
And yet it rarely gets brought up because, as opposed to Labyrinth, it's not fapworthy.
>>62892627
muh prime connolly faggot
>>62891569
Agreed. Best part of the entire trilogy.
>>62892715
smaug bar the chase scene was based all round
>>62888702
First Hobbit film was pretty damn good and don't tell me you didn't get goosebumps when the Dwarves started singing about how they lost their home around Bilbo's fireplace.
The Battle of Five Armies could've really benefited from being split into two or something, that entire movie felt rushed.

He could be a redditor and not know it.
>>62892651
I was just contrasting the movies.
Labyrinth fap reasons: 1. Jennifer Connelly
Time Bandits fap reasons: ?

serÃously?

>Ladyhawke

Required viewing imo
>Dragonheart
>Beastmaster
Not quite as good as some of the movies mentioned but worth watching. Dragonheart's comfy as fuck and Beastmaster's got some iconic scenes and is required viewing for any 80s kid.
>>62891276
Looks like a dragon to me
>>62893130
Youre going to make the spergs go fucking thermonuclear with that kind of talk.
>>62891679
>no castle in the sky
>no monty python and the Holy grail
Also hellboy is pretty questionable as fantasy, if you're gonna consider that fantasy you might as well add x men and twilight and shit like that. Hellboy 2 is closer, but it also wasn't that great.
>>62893130
Two legged dragons are literally the manlets of the dragons genus
>>62893234
Who cares lol
>>62888702
I can't believe anyone thought they were good. It was some decent fantasy to watch but when you compare them to the book and the previous trilogy it's clear it was just a money grab from Hackson.
>>62891679
Cartoons don't fucking count you retard.
>>62893382
i wish i could erase this movie from my brain and watch it again
>>62893289
I do, they are not dragons. Why don't you fuck off back to reddit
>>62890383
this, jackson probably thinks they're good, he's just trying to cover his ass
>>62888702
>this time 2 years ago people where saying that they where some of the greatest movies besides lotr
literally no
go north. find the dunedain.
>>62891679
Woah buddy Harry Potter 2 is best.
>>62892627
Watched Labyrinth just last year for the first time (24) and its shit. So terribly overrated.
Dark Crystal > Labyrinth
>>62893382
Hard to believe the same man who orchestrated these beautiful shots made the Hobbit :\
>>62893534
>So terribly overrated
It's not even that, actually. As a matter of fact MOST people think it's a terrible movie. /tv/ just likes it because of teen JC playing an autistic girl.
nobody liked the hobbit even before jackson admitted he winged the whole thing
>this time 2 years ago people where saying that they where some of the greatest movies besides lotr.
No, not at all. The reaction at the time of their release was;
>Well that was REALLY disappointing, but maybe the next two will be better. At least Gollum was pretty good.
>Wow, that was fucking shit. Penis jokes and a forced love triangle? Jackson's gone full Lucas! At least Smaug was alright.
>What the fuck he died in 5 minutes. Legolas, your mother loved you. Legolas is Mario now? How is this even worse than the last one what the fuck. The Battle of 5 Alfreds. At least the ending made me want to watch LoTR again.
I also personally find it baffling that so much of the score was forgettable, when Shore madewhat I consider to bethe best soundtrack of all time with LoTR. With a few exceptions, all I can really recall are variations on themes used in those movies.
>>62893764
I wish Alfred posting was a thing.
>>62893440
Fuck off with your DnD bullshit you half-witted autistic faggot. Smaug, Glaurung, and Scatha all get referred to as Worms or Wyrms and British heraldic laws are the only example of one governing body distinguishing between them for the sake of differentiating Coats of Arms.
Try reading a book that isn't a dungeon master's guide, mouth breather.
>>62888702
Wait.
WHAT did Jackson said?
>>62894036
What the fuck are you talking about you cunt Tolkien himself states that a "respectable" dragon has four limbs fuck off and die
guys, glaurung = wyrm; smaug = wyvern; ancalagon = dragon
this is literally fact
>>62892774
>>62894036
Since when does glaurung have two legs?
>>62888702
The first one was comfy, just a bit too long.
It's when Jackson strayed from the book in the later ones that it went wrong.
I didn't mind seeing Gandalf visit the fortress as Tolkien at least outlined that, but the love story, the barrel riding and all the other made-up-on-the-spot shit was terrible.
>>62888702
What did he say?
>>62891679
how could you forget how to train you dragon?
>>62891679
yeah I agree with>>62891998
also you can't bring in westren animated films without How to Train Your Dragon, or don bluth
>>62894808
He doesn't, he point is that Tolkien uses them interchangeably. He also refers to him as a "fire-drake" the greatest of them iirc even though drakes are largely considered flightless or in some cases just young dragons, specifically those without some sort of realm or lair to reign over.
>>62894640
Respectable isn't the same as "real" or "true" you basic sperg. If I say any "respectable" person has a job it's not the same as saying you NEETs aren't human beings. When do they cut off reading comprehension in school nowadays?
