I've studied animation and continue to pursue the interest now. I agree and disagree

I think The Goblin King and the eagles were really the weak-spot for this film. Azog wasn't 100%, but considering the rushed time frame he's still really impressive.

But none of the CGI was BAD and certain elements (the environments, Gollum, the goblins etc.) really surpassed what's been seen before to an extent that the slight weaknesses can be completely forgiven.

When the Oscar nominations were announced I thought The Hobbit didn't really have a chance against The Avengers or Life of Pi. But after seeing the above videos I can now appreciated why they got the tech award, the work they're doing is astonishing, even if the result is hit-and-miss.

I think, when this tech evolves (which over the next 2 Hobbit films, it will) we'll see some fantastic stuff. I'm sure PJ is aware that Smaug has to be magnificent, so we can really expect some great leaps there if nowhere else.
