Essentialy, my exact sentiments. I might substitute the words "pretty superb", with "very good" (as you know, there were a few changes that really stuck in my teeth), but by and large, this captures my feelings pretty precisely. With the caveat that its as good as being The Hobbit as The Lord of the Rings is at being The Lord of the Rings. All four films have been done very well and I feel capture much of what I love in regards to Tolkien's creation but they also have some issues. In the end for me Jackson did a pretty superb job of taking a world I care a lot about and create some amazing experiences in the theater. "Hear me, hounds of Sauron, Gandalf is here! Fly if you value your foul skins, I will shrivel you from tail to snout if you step within this circle!" "Do not be to eager to deal out death in judgement. Even the very wise cannot see all ends."
