After the 'trilogy' is done, maybe Jackson will release a Hobbit unextended edition, paring it back down to the original source material.
@PVBrett ... I'm not allowed to be critical of a classic novel? Can something only be legitimately meaningful if we deem it flawless?

@fozmeadows Of course not. But you seem to suggest that the original story is not filmworthy, which I heartily disagree with. -
@PVBrett I'm not saying it's not filmworthy; I'm saying that in order for it to work as a film, you'd have to add in extra details.

@fozmeadows Fleshing out some of the characters is good, but do we really care about Nori's backstory, or Bombur's battle with diabetes? -
@PVBrett I'm not saying backstory; I'm talking dialogue. It's narratively cluttered to have 10 of 13 characters be largely interchangeable.
