The Lords of the Rings trilogy by Peter Jackson was one of the most popular, successful and critically acclaimed franchises in movie history, winning a whole bunch of awards including a lot of Oscars. Naturally, after waiting an appropriate (but still pretty short) period of time, Hollywood wanted to make some more money off the fandom. Enter The Hobbit, starring Martin Freeman as Bilbo Baggins!
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey raises lots of questions. Like why did they decide to try and squeeze three movies out of a single book? Why is Bilbo even going on this adventure? Are we supposed to care about these dwarves? Why does that one dwarf look so much like Aragorn? What happened to all the cool make-up? Why is everything now CGI? Why is so much of this movie spent talking about the fact that the Lord of the Rings might happen one day? Why does Radagast the Brown have bird poop on his face?!
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

And of course Legolas himself also swoons over her but since Thranduil deems her a 'lowly Silvan elf' obviously she is not suitable for him despite being such an amazing fighter, being SO AHEAD OF HER TIME since she argues that the whole dwarven/elven thing isn't helping either of their races and they should aid the dwarves in their quest, being a captain of the guard etc etc etc. I despise her with every atom of my being :)

If I'm remembering it right they took Bilbo along because, in the event that the dragon wasn't gone, it wouldn't recognize the scent of a Hobbit. That would allow him to sneak inside and the dragon wouldn't immediately be on guard compared to if it smelled a Dwarf

@professionalmemeenthusiast2117 4 года назад

Hobbits are also remarkably good at stealth, even compared to dwarves, and Gandalf had always had some idea that hobbits needed to be involved in the final defeat of Sauron in some way, so bringing Bilbo along on an adventure was the first step in a long plan to make hobbits as a whole more adventurous.

Last time that happened the Writer and the Producer had a super awkward time.

@mrduck6720 4 года назад

They barely even had a director ready. Guillermo Del Toro was originally supposed to direct it, but since he decided to leave, they got Peter Jackson in. Instead of adapting to the circumstances and give him more pre-production time, they sticked to the deadline and gave him only 3-4 months until full production. Hence, why we see so much CGI in the finished product.

@madspet9106 4 года назад

I enjoy the second movie the most, personally. Mostly because Smaug is absolutely awesome, but I also enjoy the Dol Guldur bits, and Mirkwood. Not a fan of the Laketown stuff, though

@Tlevids 4 года назад

@@madspet9106 Yeah Smaug is great, but I do feel they cheapened him a little with the whole slapsticky cat-and-mouse scene where he's chasing the dwarves through the mountain (not in the books ofc) - it made him seem incompetent and clumsy. Smaug & Bilbo scenes were awesome though. Also the Legolas & Tauriel scenes are way too over-the-top for me; I am not against his inclusion, but he got too much screen time at the expense of original characters (who were actually in the book) like Beorn and the dwarves.

For those who don't know, the "what do I have in my pocket" riddle only worked because of how old and sheltered gollum was.

In the book they do actually need a burglar for when they break into Erebor and Bilbo doesn't ever feel that he's not a necessary part of the team (even if they suspect he is not a burglar as Gandalf claimed). He scores points by proving himself in action rather than by sympathising with them about their lost homeland.

Also, the massive popularity of Gandalf among readers and viewers shows that badass older characters can be just as, if not often more, beloved than younger characters so I don't always get this need to make certain characters younger. We already had brave younger characters in the book like Fili and Kili who sacrifice themselves protecting their uncle in battle.
