Thanks Deadline for allowing me to see an advertisement for this movie without having to watch a commercial for air freshener or an off-road vehicle.
I didn’t realize it before I saw this post, but I too appreciate that fact. Thanks Deadline!
Yes, THANK YOU!
If that was Smaug…what a disappointment. The dragons in Dragonslayer looked more realistic.
The shot consisted of showing what? …the tip of Smaug’s wing? And you’re already calling it a disappointment?
The Shire kinda reminds me of a children’s TV show, I think it was a BBC show called The Teletubbies…
While technically excellent, these Happy Meal styled tidbits of Lord of the Rings feel more like a cash grab or a commercial than real movies to me.
How long until they are sold to Disney and we get an origin story with a younger Orlando Bloom, fighting off the North Koreans invading the Shire.
