Rules:

  1. Follow the ToS of Piefed.social

  2. Don't be too rough with each other! We're here to appreciate, and sometimes lightly rib, Tolkien's fantastic creation, and all of its derivative works. Arguments happen, but remember, in the words of Tolkien, that food and cheer and good song are what make a merrier world!

  3. AI content will be removed at moderator discretion. We ultimately want to keep AI content in this comm to a minimum, so while unknowingly sharing an AI meme might not always merit a removal, things like AI videos and the like will generally be removed.

The animated monies are awesome. Particularly The Hobbit

It's not dead. It's just pining for the fjords.

I heard good things about the old animated movie ...

I love them, but opinions are a bit polarized

[–] Pronell@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

It's what I grew up with, and so I have great affection for it, nostalgically.

And I love that Peter Jackson brought Ian Holm back to play Bilbo.

It's fun, but a little goofy. I recommend it, but it isn't a masterpiece.

I watched it for the first time last year, liked it better than the first 2 Hobbit movies (never bothered watching the 3rd one)

M4 book edit is the only way to watch The Hobbit.

Thanks for the lead - will check that one out

I've heard of some odd stuff like someone said the first mission impossible they ever saw was the last one. I wonder if there are people out there who have only seen like the hobbits movies or some weird combination of that.

There are probably people that first saw Star Wars episode 9, or the 3rd Jurassic World, or the 4th Matrix movie. And probably stopped there too, thinking the franchise is shit.

[–] rants_unnecessarily@piefed.social 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

There's a 4th Matrix movie?!

[–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 1 points 18 hours ago

Shush now. No there isn't. No need to worry about it.

Stay in your blissful ignorance.

[–] Pixel_Jock_17@piefed.ca 2 points 6 days ago

Omg that's amazing, I never even considered it for so many franchises.

Because of my age, I actually watched phantom menace first. But I guess it's... The first... But not the original...
