THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY (2012) MOVIE REACTION - FIRST TIME WATCHING - REVIEW
8,118Welcome to our first-time watching as we react to The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (2012). It's only been a couple of weeks since we saw The Lord of the Rings and we already missed Middle-earth. So glad we still had yet to witness the thrilling adventures of Bilbo Baggins.
Directed by Peter Jackson, "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" follows the humble hobbit Bilbo Baggins as he joins a group of dwarves on a quest to reclaim their homeland from the fearsome dragon Smaug.
There is a lot of elements we enjoyed in this film. Getting to see a lot of the stories mentioned throughout "The Lord of the Rings" and how it all went down was exciting and we were thrilled to see how incredible Martin Freeman was as Bilbo.
We loved that the themes of friendship and courage are present here and how they take this opportunity to expand a bit more on the history and lore of Middle-earth. There were other elements that were missed, quite frankly some of the aesthetic choices especially with the things that used to be practical and are now CGI.
We hope that you enjoy our reactions, commentary and discussions as we delve into the film's themes and how it impacted the fantasy genre. How it's connection to the incredible "Lord of the Rings" trilogy made this such an enjoyable experience and how they continue to show the pure genius and innovation of J.R.R Tolkien who singlehandedly changed the landscape of what fantasy was as a genre and what could be achieved.
