Ordered the Blu Ray this morning from amazon but as i missed out going to the cinema to see it not really sure (after reading some reviews) what to expect, hope im not disappointed.

Anyone seen it and if so did you like it?

Loved the 3 LOTR's so fingers crossed.

    That movie is just AWESOME!!!

    You can't be disappointed. If yes, it can only be because at the end you can't wait till the next part of hobbit is in the cinemas!!! :D

    If you liked the Lord of the Rings, you'll like the Hobbit

    It's great, I personally havent seen any lord or rings movies before i watched. The 60fps is noticeable.
    It goes for ever which is really good. The graphics and details in are super. It makes watching the lord of the rings so much easier to understand, and simple things too that you never would have picked up on about the landscape.

    It made a spot in my top five movies of all time, just below Avater.

    And of course the ending is of the best into luring you back in. I don't think I have ever been this excited to see the next installment since Harry potter and deathly hollows part 2.

    You will love it :)

    If you're hoping to see a film version of the children's book The Hobbit, you might be at least baffled if not dismayed! :D But if you're hoping for the first of three prequels to the LotR films that include events described in The Hobbit...it's bloody brilliant.

    You won't be able to get the Dwarves' song out of your head, so just be prepared.

    I loved the movie BUT it didn't follow the actual story very well. It is still very impressive though.

    I liked the movie, but I can't say much though since I haven't read the book yet. The fact that they're making the smallest book JRR Tolken wrote into a trilogy is silly though.

    Having trouble with your game? Sounds like a personal problem.

    No, it isn't silly, because that's not what Jackson has done. He said he'd only film The Hobbit if he could include the backstory Tolkien retro-fitted to his rather cute children's book to make it a part of the LotR's mythology. And to do that, three films isn't in the slightest bit silly. Cramming it all into one film would have been silly.

    Loved it! I've been waiting for The Hobbit since the LOTR trilogy was released. Glad it has finally come! Looks stunning, too!

    I just watched this a couple days ago and thought it was pretty good.

    Oh yes, you are right about that actually. I forgot that they're including some backstories into it. I haven't read JRR Tolken's books yet, so I guess I didn't have my facts straight with that. My apologies.

    It was good, but it was no LOTR. I'll see the next two.

    Hard core fan. Loved the books, loved LOTR movies (you must see the Extended version to really enjoy them), but The Hobbit movie was a disappointment. It is 1 hours longer than it should be. Visuals are great (not as great as LOTR), but the scenes are just too long and not engaging. It often looks like nothing is happening and they should get on with the movie. Some content should had been left for the Delete Scene section of the DVD and not on the theater version...

    Going to see the next 2 on iTunes, not in the theater.

    Can some one explain to me how come the fat Goblin king speaks perfect english? Goblin royalties sends their kids to top universities in the US?

    It threw me for a loop the first time I heard his voice, and yet in some wierd twisted way it made perfect sense by the time he died.
