There is no debate.

Debate about what?

I much prefer a good looking scene that isn't true to the books, than a scene true to the book that looks like utter garbage.

>bottom
begun the clone wars have

About the Lord of the Rings trilogy versus the Hobbit trilogy, duh

The hobbit what? What are you talking about?

>We need a menacing orc commander so let's find the biggest, beefiest boss nigger we can and cake him in makeup, a wig, contacts, fangs...
vs
>A FUCKING CARTOON

>Hobbit trilogy
Doesn't exist.

dafuq is a hobbit trilogy?
sounds like a big guy made it

The great debate over if the greatness of LotR negates the shittiness of the Hobbit?
Or is the Hobbit like a permanent stain on Jackson's legacy

High elves

>that armor
fucking skyrim rip off

Sun Tzu BTFO

>hobbit could've been a nice cozy little adventure film
>instead we got 3 shit movies filled with idiotic meme characters and god awful cgi that only adds to the fakeness
It's all christopher tolkiens fault since he was so snobby and the license was set to expire so it had to be rushed
Hope he's happy now, cunt

Why the fuck would they do that?

was this supposed to be the charge of Rohirrim of Hobbit?

WHY?!?!?!

Elves pushed back into the Dwarven phalanx. Some dwarves had a few laughs that day.

why didnt the clone armies of the elves escort frodo with the ring to mount doom? wtf

why is there bloom on EVERYTHING

Because the entire trilogy is a dream sequence

unironically they were different people that looked the same

Lol, imagine your immortal life ending like this.

jokes on you I play as druchii

It would have attracted too much attention from Sauron.

>they filmed real people and then replace their faces with cgi rendered template
Lmao

Saved as "Total War AI.webm"

...

>I have two personalities

Hobbit prosthetics was great tho,
too bad it got so little screen time.

The Hobbit """trilogy""" was so shitty that it actually slightly lowered the value of LOTR because I remembered Peter Jackson made both.

do the unexpected for the enemy will not expect it
-sun tzu

>a wise man will always jump between a spear wall and a charging enemy

but arent they both bad

in what way is the hobbit true to the books

Someone post the webms

in the making of the hobbit, Jackson states he didnt have enough prep time and wanted an extra year.. but the studio wouldn't give it to him

It's literally the exact same guy. After her stole >muh silmarils Feanor decreed that from now on he would be known as "Morgoth" which means "enemy" or "absolute douchebag" depending on the translation.

>unironically
you are legit retarded
stop using that dumbass word to try to sound smart
its does exactly the opposite

oh, idk
theres so much lore
you literally need to start with all of it when your a child to really get it all and i missed that window
still interesting though

Speaking more generally, I think Nolan's Dunkirk is a good, rare example of an anti-CGI attitude hurting the film. The evacuation was absolutely massive and the film didn't portray the scale properly.

I read the hobbit as a kid, and the lord of the rings as a teenager. The silmarillion made me fall asleep.
Then the movies came out, and it was cool, but it wasn't until only a few years ago I sat down and read the silmarillion, then the whole series again from the start. I read a lot, so its not a huge investment of time, and I look forward to the weather getting cold because it means it's time for my annual re-read of the tolkien books.
It's never to late, and they're fun timeless stories.

nah this was but it lacked something

>youtu.be/Ejc-rHB6Vws

High Elves are so fkin OP in TWW2. Dwarves from TWW1 are the only race that can compete imo.

Ok i get it now: Iluvatar hated them because they were so gay

They didn't make a Hobbit trilogy, what are you talking about

It doesn't exist

1) what the fuck are they jumping off of?
2) won't they just get pushed back into their own shield wall? whats the point

if he had any self respect at all he would've walked away from the project then, same as Del Toro

Theres a row of elves kneeling behind the guys with shields, they are jumping off their shoulders, you can see it

>*lves

Not even once.

The only correct answer

More like
>we found a huge dude to play Bolg and go him into the orc makeup and everything.
>nah dont use any of that footage just CGI it away.

Just autoresolve againt rats everytime :^)

>elves get massacred for no reason
>they fuck up the dwarf line so their phalanx doesn't work so they also die

Who else knew the Hobbit was going to be shit as soon as they saw the dwarf designs? I still think they look fucking goofy and terrible apart from Balin.

Most of that book is unironically that-tier. Common sense dressed up in spooky language with mystic Eastern wisdom.

>had I a host of Elves in the armor of the Elder Days, it would avail little but to attract the attention of Sauron

where do they go after they jump? They all just disappear into the ground

Thats a big helmet

when they split one book into three movies they might as well have screamed "this is going to be garbage and we're going to milk you for every penny of it"

thats a orcai though not sure about hobbit guy I think he was orc

Everyone knew as soon as they announced they'd make three movies instead of two

>they look fucking goofy

They were goofy in the book. It's supposed to be more lighthearted than LoTR

No they weren't, faggot. They weren't desribed as anything other than regular looking dwarves that wore different coloured capes. Shut your stupid fucking mouth.

>They were goofy in the book

that's totally untrue. i'm so tired of some idiot like you saying "umm, but it's a children's book, it's supposed to be that way" in response to every legitimate criticism

Imagine quitting GoT thinking you're about to be catapulted to stardom in a LotR trilogy completely unaware of what was to come.

dark elves do it better

The worst thing about LOTR has to be the segregation of dwarves, men, and elves created by Tolkien. So in the end, what is supposed to be a beautiful story is mired by a vile God who has different plans for each race, instead of bringing them together in harmony.

It's that sort of nationalist gunk that can really bring down the level of writing.

This guy got it.

dont think so. the elves and men and dwarves are all going to join in the second song which will remake the world after armageddon

cant wait for total war warhammer 2 lads

>orcai

Bait?

It's already out
