I still can’t stop but think how stretched out the Hobbit films were, for an otherwise short book. That’s a sin that stains forever with me. The Lord of the Rings films, do have their own flaws, but they’re fairly contained and can be debated as to whether they were good or not. I have so much trouble excusing anything with the Hobbit though.

And I hope we never, ever see anyone tackle The Silmarillion. Simply because, there will be so much improvised fluff in that would-be film, that it’d make the Hobbit films blush.

    Had to stop watching at episode 5(?) cause of the arc where the little girl learns to accept and be happy with her arranged marriage to an old dude?! I figured it would be a one off “Japan being Japan” type thing but I searched it up just incase

    Dropped it the second I found out the movie plot from that search. Such a bummer since I was super invested until that point :/
