Dont get me wrong i thought azog was a bad character (though i dont feel that strongly about the CGI for him, i dont think it looked any worse than other CGI). The actual character himself i didnt like and how it changed the story and its tone so much. As for Radagast, i just felt they reduced a character who could have been great into something pretty pathetic and just for laughs. The crossing of his eyes, the jokes of taking mushrooms, having a smoke on some weed, the stick insect, the poop down his face, bunny sled. It didnt help that he appeared in one of the most pointless scenes - the warg chase and had the worst CGI of the film - warg and bunny sled race. Honestly looked worse than some CG on BBC which has about a $20 budget. I didnt have massively high hopes for him due to what they made him look like but i didnt think they would go all out comic relief with him but keep him at least a little wizardy. For this film i think they could have cut most of his scenes out. I think i might warm a tiny bit to him over the next two movies if the story pans out.

I loved Radagast, but the sled race definitely went on too long
