Well, I did mention it in the Eagle rescue. But yes, it is indeed gorgeous throughout. There are some spectacular nature shots, probably more than any LotR movie (even if no sequence reaches the heights of the beacons).
As for why people like AUJ best, I think it's because most of the stuff that really bothers people like the romance, Alfrid, the Smaug fight, and the overuse of Legolas is in the later movies. My memory is that I could tolerate that stuff in DoS but B5A is when various things, especially the Legolas/Bolg fight, turned me off the whole trilogy. How much they annoy me this time around or how much the EEs improve it, I'll wait and see.
One thing I'll say is that I've been watching the Star Wars prequels (though I haven't done III quite yet), so some actually terrible movies are fresh in my memory. I know better now after rewatching I and II than to casually make comparisions between The Hobbit movies and the prequels !
