Have people forgotten these little numbers we got in the trilogy?
Hey! Ho! To the bottle I go
To heal my heart and drown my woe
Rain may fall and wind may blow
But there still be many miles to go
Sweet is the sound of the pooring rain
And the stream that falls from hill to plain
Better than rain or rippling brook
Is a mug of beer inside this Took!
Oh, you can search far and wide
You can drink the whole town dry
But you'll never find a beer so brown
No, you'll never find a beer so brown
As the one we drink in our hometown
As the one we drink in our hometown
You can drink your fancy ales
You can drink them by the flagon
By the only brew for the brave and true
Comes from that Green Dragon!
These songs are just as silly (f not moreso) than any of the ones featured in The Hobbit. Yet not once have I heard of anyone listening them, throwing their arms up in the air, and shouting, "Great! PJ has gone all Disney on us! These films are ruined!"
Why is there suddenly a double standard with The Hobbit? Why are those songs perfectly acceptable for LoTR (which is already a dark and grim story to begin with), but the dwarves' songs are deemed "too childish?"
