"I'm Mister Hobit1234 and I know everything better and speak for the whole world"

You name aspects. I considered the films as good when you look at the problems they had with production and if I would ignore this huge point I consider them as OK.

You can't adapt films exactly like the books are, because this simply would not work. Why, you may ask? What would it have been for films, if we wouldn't have known what Gandalf did in the time, where he was gone in the books? How should there be a scene in Mirkwood, when Tolkien describes is like you could barely see anything? Who would watch a film where the main character gets knocked off and wakes up when the battle is over?

Yeah, there are some dump things, I agree, but that does not make a film that worse, that it would be a violation to all fans. For example I don't understand why they used Azog instead of Bolg or why the Eagels didn't speak. The Tauriel-Kili Romance was just because they (Warner Brothers, I believe) wanted a Love Story for more publicum (I don't think this brought more publicum). For me it was also ok that they used Legolas, because technically he was alive to this time, but I wouldn't have gave him that big of an role. Beorn should have been used more, but because the Actor was a drug dealer Warner Brothers wanted to not have him in the third film, so you only see some scenes in the Extened Edition.

If you wanna see a butchered book, then read Eragon and then watch the film, you will be platted ;)
