Imo, one of the reasons AUJ fell flat among the critics was because I think they created too much hype. Especially the Wellington premiere.
Let's hope this does not do that.

And one of the other reasons AUJ fell flat among the critics is that it wasn't that good of a movie.Smaug's voice wrote:While I love this, I am worried too.Voronwë the Faithful wrote:A video on the making of that "book":

Actually what I really dislike about most negative reviews about AUJ is that so
many of them never saw AUJ's core material and story.
Nearly everyone wrote paragraphs on how HFR sucks and the three film split but just a few lines actually commenting on the film. If you reviewed gravity, would you spend so much time commenting on the 3D and so little on the actual film?
I also get the idea that many were expecting an LotR rerun. Otherwise, I don't understand the disappointment with the slow start. Imo, they had made up their mind to come down heavily on the film beforehand i.e. Backlash.

On the other hand: Luke says his favorite scene "in the second movie" is his bringing the Dwarves to Laketown in the boat. Surely if his killing of Smaug was in the film, that would be his favorite scene.

Aiden Turner confirms that his relationship with Tauriel is just flirtatious.
And there have been several references to how long the scene between Bilbo and Smaug is. Yay!

Most likely a confirmation of the return of the carrot man. PJ is being interviewed along with his daughter and the confirm that they are in the same scene together, and PJ says "she is a barmaid,"
