Look, I get that the Hobbit is supposed to be a different tone from Lord of the Rings, even in the books. The Hobbit is about stepping out into adventure, whereas Lord of the Rings is about the harsh truth that the adventure is dark and dangerous and may change you forever. But to overload the scenes with cheap CGI, silly physics, and every victory being a punchline cheapens the source material into a cartoon, and not even a good one.
Such a bad trilogy, the fight scenes have a feel of zero danger for anyone other than orcs. The bridge of Khazad Dum scene had more fear and emotion in it than the entire hobbit trilogy.
In all fairness to the scene with the troll blowing his nose on Bilbo, this actually replaced a ridiculous part in the book where the troll's purse randomly talked to Bilbo and gave his prescence away. Even Tolkien later admitted that this was a random and ridiculous. So it's not like the troll scene in the book wasn't ridiculous as well, it's just that the movie changed what was so odd about it.
You're right; those were pretty bad. They spent an amazing amount of money on those scenes not to be used. The one that irritated me the most was Radagast's staff not working. At All. It's one of the Staves of the Five Wizards, all considered artifacts. If it was that worthless, it would not have been issued to Radagast to begin with.....
@@Сайтамен , Are you sure about that? They may look similar, but I think they were in fact different. Radagast's was shaped to hold the gem that focused its power; which never seemed to work reliably.
Ugh... Terrible. Just fucking terrible..! and the gore in this movie adaptaion of a childrens book. It doesnt even add anything! modernized, soulless, literal crap!
It's actually a book for young adults 13-15 or so. The movie doesn't need the gore (like you state) but still the story isn't for completely innocent "little children" either. There is death and grief to be dealt with in the book, it's just not overly described and elaborated on.
@@waynepurcell6058 so does the lion king. Which is inarguably made for children. It's the explicitness of it. You don't see mufasa splat like a watermelon upon hitting the ground. I vividly remember the two towers got an R rating in my country cause of that ONE scene, of those 10 frames where the uruks throws some entrails in the air when eating the orc. And also, I would bet my anything that the 13-15 year olds back then were actually children as compared to today
WOW! I haven't even bothered watching the extended editions but this kind of tone-deaf, unfunny, cartoonishly cruel, shallow dirt is what they originally thought had a place in the films?!
The Legolas stuff is worst, he actually flies, only Elwing out of all elves was gifted flight ability by Valar to visit her husband Earendil when he was near Aman
Excellent choices! I'd like to give two more honorable mentions: The "mountains coming to life" scene in AUJ, and the "almost dropped the key" scene in TDoS. Two scenes thrown in for nothing but mindless padding.
@@thomasalvarez6456ye but in the book it was just like a walk in the park from them since they didn’t get involved with the giants unlike the movie, the giant scene is cool but all that just so Thorin can diss Bilbo is unnecessary
@@ironinthesoul9680 they didn’t have to include the stone giants for that, there were many unnecessary long scenes in the hobbit like the goblin town escape, love triangle, barrel chase and the dwarves attempting to kill smaug including the gold melting scene. But I get it most of these scenes were made to extend the book into three movies.
I think that would've been a plausible and decent scene, had they taken a few events out: No Bombur flying on to land and twirling around, no chopping the log, no closeup of the dwarf catching the axe and spinning around. Get rid of those and it's a bit better.
This is how I'd have made the hobbit. Two parts. First deals with everything up to dwarves being tied up by spiders. Azog isn't in either Film. Dol Goldur plot is, but is concluded before Bilbo meets smaug in part two. No Tauriel. No Legolas. No Alfred. No improbable physics scenes. Radagast is in some scenes, minus his bunnies, Sebastian and the bird poo. No storm giants. No orc fight in lake town. No angmar / guadabad scene, no smaug in forges scene. No cheap dialogue or jokes. The seeds were there for two good films, but we got three overdone and sloppy films instead.
EUGH!! The "That will do it." - scene, with the goblin king, is everything wrong with this bulllsh't hollywood humour today. You think Tolkien wrote that? No, some smarmy scrawny writer born in the late 80's is still holding his d*ck grinning and thinking about this intellectual vortex of a scene he contributed with.... A simple idea that is soiling Tolkiens legacy of being an absolute fantastical genius with an inexhaustible and poetic relation to his understanding of the world.
I was crying with laughter. These movies are so bad it's impressive; like, you have to have a special skill to make something this bad. I only saw the first two movies, so the scenes from BotFA were new, and even worse than I'd thought they would be (I've only seen a few from the third movie, like Legolas bounding up the falling rocks, and Tauriel acting like Kili, or was it Fili, was the love of her life). They really should have left well enough alone. I hope every single person involved in this is thoroughly embarrassed for the rest of their lives.
Every single person? That's harsh. Have you ever worked in the film industry, or known anyone who has? Let me tell you, it's very messy. When projects go wrong, it isn't the fault of everyone in the cast and crew, but usually a select few studio bigwigs who only care about their own profit (and damage the production in the process of pursuing it). So if you're going to blame anyone, blame the greedy assholes at the top, not those who worked their asses off just to get the job done.
Some of those are not bad. I just watched the "JRR Tolkien's The Hobbit" cut and I love it. Sad that we got stuff like the Kili romance in the official version, just why Omg some of these are so bad I can't even, the transphobic joke is so funny guys... So he dies in the extended cut? That was AWFUL. Number 1 the Bombur roll what the hell that's not even that bad I mean it's not good
It's not that we hate it, it's a good thing to use in some scenes that are impossible to make in practical effects, but using it all the time makes it look weird, there are other resources that can be used instead of cgi
FUN FACT: Jackson was about to use the budget of this film to help cure unknown diseases but changed his mind because... franchise. God he’s a terrible spender. (Ok that fact’s NOT true but you know.)
My eyes hurt these films were such trash uuugh even without the majestic LOTR trilogy to compare them to The Hobbit movies are overly cgi, boring story, no emotion, bad dialogue, not deciding whether it was a kids adventure or try to tie it (unsuccessfully) to LOTR, like I was so disappointed I never saw the other Hobbit movies in the theatre after the disaster of Unexpected Journey. Also everyone loves Martin Freeman in this but to me he's just playing Martin Freeman, he's the same character in all his stuff. lol rant over xD
Well it’s unfair here because you used clips that have like half the frames that should have. The movies don’t look like what you’re showing in certainparts.
@@ultrasgreen1349 when you have 5 company's or studios who only care about money they're gonna make it as clique driven as possible to gain the most people from different crowds. Like tarriul for women.ect love triangle. Jacksons also to blame.

That is why they should've just made to one film and just focus on the quest and not so many other filler crap.
Very well put.
Also, you're cute.
While i agree rhat the cgi looks very noticeable they cost alot than the previous lotr cgi
@maskedmarvyl4774 LOL thank you, I'm a singer :)

ikr it's like watching Avengers at this point, The Hobbit is so boring
the weird frame-rate choice you made actually make the scenes more endearing because they look like rough claymation instead of soulless cgi lol
Being happy Amazon put his dirty hands on this, disgusting....
These were some of the worst movies I've ever seen. Thank god I pirated the second two rather than spending money on them.
For me The hobbit trilogy is better than the LOTR trilogy

Why do these movies use so much diffusion filter? It makes the image look weird
The lighting in BofFA is particularly atrocious.
What is up with the frame rate of this video?
Excellent choices!
I'd like to give two more honorable mentions: The "mountains coming to life" scene in AUJ, and the "almost dropped the key" scene in TDoS. Two scenes thrown in for nothing but mindless padding.

Here comes Rings of Power to dethrone because 99% of its scenes are awful
This whole thing comes off like a Wallace and Gromit production lol
Thats insulting to Wallace and Gromit and Nick Park tbh
The CGI really ruined hobbits movies for me.
6:54 a kaju battle?! In THe HOBBIT???
5:54-7:19 and the dwarves are just invincible now!!! through this whole fight not a single scratch!!
That was nauseating nausea, and not just because it was in low framerate! In my opinion amazon is still a more valiant effort than this horse....
These movies look so bad, that I joined the #metoo movement, solely because I felt as if they had raped my eyeballs.
Liam Gallagher and Galadriel overpowering Sauron did it for me lol
1:15 So Gandalf thought it was ok to kill the rightful sovereign of an independent kingdom, after tresspassing.
It's okay. He gassed his own nation.
He does so in the book too, so yes.
As a Hobbit trilogy fan...
Yep I agree XD
Trolls in the hobbit are huge, much larger than the ones in lotr, and also much easier to kill somehow.

Is this a really terrible rip from the 48fps? Frame skipping everywhere!
I enjoyed it a bit but I was only really interested in the Necromancer/Sauron scene and the amazing fight between the Nazgul.
It’s the template for all marvel movies since. So you can say it pioneered comedy action
Great compilation of the horrible renditions of a Classic book One question, where can I get an MP3 of the into cowbell squeal sound?
#3 I can see how the extended edition got an R
4:43 WOW (in the original trilogy it worked just fine even though he didn’t use it much) so the staff doesn’t work now??
Man at every moment the most opportune thing happens to the dwarves
My stomach hurts
I'm sad to say I watched all three Jackson Hobbit movies in the theaters, and had trouble staying awake through a third of each.
Man this framerate makes these scenes actually work! What framerate is this?!
Wow! Thank you for the compilation. I'm off to pour bleach In my eyes now
The CGI and green screens look terrible
I'm so glad i never watched these. I think I the first one but i completely forgot it.
I still don't get what kind of a stupid wizard Gandalf is.
I would say the dwarf chariot ride is the worst. Didn't think anything could top Legolas, the bats and Bolg, but that does!
It was a crime. The screenwriters of this movie should rot in the dungeons of Utumno.
legolas jumping on falling rocks like super mario porco dio...
