Welcome to Brad's online memory archives.

The Final Installment

I went to see the final Hobbit movie yesterday morning. I was so excited! The earliest showing was at 9am. It was in IMAX. It would be more expensive, and it would be ear-damagingly loud, but I could overlook those things for the sake of an earlier showtime.

When I got to the theater, I found out the IMAX show was in 3D. D’oh! That’s a deal-breaker for me. I dislike 3D so much that if it were the only way I could watch the Hobbit, I would not watch it at all.

I bought a ticket for a non-3D showing at 10am, and hung out in the car until I could go in.

Before the movie started.

Before the movie started.

I won’t say anything about the movie itself so I don’t inadvertently give any spoilers.

    I don’t care about spoilers – give it to me straight: Does the hobbit die?

    😉

      I guess it’s not a spoiler if they say it right in the beginning:

      He made me so mad at first that I wanted to kill him. Then, later, when I had to kill him, it was like having to shoot some of my own folks.

        I cackled!

    As long as there was a ridiculously long chase scene I’ll be satisfied.

    • Brad

      The car chase scene was one of the best I’ve ever seen.

    Did you like it? (Unlike the guys, I fear the movie will be 90% battle scenes.)

    • Brad

      I was disappointed. It’s hard to say why without talking about plot points.

      Your supposition is correct. There is a lot of fighting in the movie.

        I hope to see “Wild” tomorrow with Katie.
