The Hobbit Trilogy... 10 Years Later

Video Description

In this video essay, I take a deep dive into The Hobbit Trilogy and explore the major issues that plagued these films, now 10 years after their release. From the faulty adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's beloved novel to the structural problems that set the trilogy up for failure, I dissect why these films missed the mark. I analyze the character arcs of Bilbo, Thorin, and the Dwarves, along with the underwhelming portrayal of Smaug, the handling of key action sequences, and the many abandoned plotlines that left fans disappointed. While there are moments of visual brilliance, the trilogy as a whole struggles with pacing, inconsistent tone, and an over-reliance on CGI. I also take a look at the legacy of The Hobbit Trilogy—how it stacks up 10 years later and how it impacted the Middle-Earth franchise, especially when compared to The Lord of the Rings films. If you’re a fan of Middle-Earth or just curious about where The Hobbit went wrong, this video breaks down everything you need to know.
