    Thanks, Smokey. Seems kind of bleak though.

    I'll probably see 'The Hobbit: The Battle of The Five Armies' at some point, though, just to say I've seen the whole Jackson franchise. As a Tolkien fan my attitude towards the Jackson flicks turned from reserve to disgust with the first 'Hobbit' film.

    Jackson pretty much lost me after his disaster film King Kong. His movies seem to be too bloated for me to watch including the Lord of The Ring movies

    Saw the Hobbit (5 armies) in 3D, best 3D movie I seen to date. the whole movie was shot in 3D every scene is in 3D. I never read the book and glad I hadn't so I would not be so critical of the movie franchise. A few more answers are given in this film that leads you into the LOTR. I think it was a nice tie up of loose ends for any series I've seen.

    Looking forward to seeing "The Sniper"

    Sir T - I am surprised that you still go to the Cinema - I would never subject myself to that experience. Too many people, rude and otherwise. Thoughts?
