I need to order my tickets. This is probably the most excited I have ever been for a movie. Also a sneak peak that aired over Thanksgiving in the US. Sir Ian McKellen is so good

The question for me is, should I watch this while high? Not smashed, but just a good mood high.

I wouldn't.

I'd have to agree. This is going to be a movie I'd want to be fully sober so I can enjoy the LotR universe and all it's glory and actually remember 100% of it the next day. This isn't some Michael Bay film where going high/drunk wouldn't hurt enjoying the explosions and 3D.

I fear people that are too excited about this movie will be disappointed. I believe the Hobbit movies will be a level below the LotR ones.

I think people will look for LOTR but get a different movie. I mean, look at the book, it's not as epic as LOTR, it's more fun and light-hearted and you don't have the same grittyness. If you head into the film expecting another LOTR trilogy, you'll be disappointed.

If you loved the book as a kid, I don't think you'll be underwhelmed.

Some reviews I read earlier complained that the film started way too slow, that it "took ages until they got going" and about unneeded musical numbers. As a new viewer maybe that would put me off, as a fan I can't complain about getting a relatively complete rendition of the unexpected party scene.
Maybe it'll be a bit annoying to watch because, since it's the first film of a trilogy, a lot of the stories which are outlined won't come to a conclusion or don't have a pay-off in An Unexpected Journey. Also, keeping in line with the book, every movie should have a progressively darker/grittier tone, the first one is still a lot of fun and jokes and they're kind of naive and oblivious to the dangers they might face, but as the story moves on, they experience more and more dangerous and scary stuff.

I'm sure there will be parts that I won't like and find overdone, out of place or useless, but I think if I go into the movie with level-headed expectations, I'll still have a great time.

I'd probably see the movie for Riddles in the Dark alone, everything else is just added on awesomeness.

Martin Freeman, Richard Armitage, Ian McKellen and Andy Serkis are supposed to be very good in their roles (how could they not be) and as long as that stands true, I can look over the minor grievances the movie might cause just to see those famous and excellent actors in iconic roles interact with each other.

It seem Peter Jackson's decision to make 3 movies was a bad move after all. I know there were many of us doubting this decision, and even if the avid readers might like it, the general audience seem to think it actually is too much bread and too little butter. Let us hope it doesn't bomb at the box office at least.

As long as this movie doesn't have an equivalent of King Kongs brontosaurus pile up I think I'll enjoy it.

I hear all of the action is fantastic, just that it gets repetitive because of the length of the movie. Perhaps three 2:00-2:15 movies instead of three movies nearing 3 hours wouldve been a better choice in this regard. Or just two 3 hour movies.
