The first movie I enjoyed. But the CG wasnt nearly as up to par as lord of the rings. Some of it was very CG looking. And the new one looks like its even worse for that. The dragon looks terrible, and that whole shot at the end looks like green screen
As much as i can relate to your comment, i find the hobbit CG to be above LOTR. I was instantly impressed by the opening scene in the inner castle and mines.
Yes.... some really low quality stuff there... dunno if this was ready to be shown. The locations look spectacular, but at the end you see smaug and it looks like cheap cg that is overlayed badly.
Maybe it's just me, but I kinda get the feeling that second shot was just meant to show off how fancy-pants Peter Jackson's CG team is. It's just a uninterrupted shot where he looks past the camera... not doing anything... or showing any noteworthy emotions... Of course the gif is out of context and I've not seen the film,…
I just saw the movie last night. Its one of the best CG movie i ever seen, its the scenario/script that bugs me. It probably has something to do with the length of dialogue at the beginning.
Does the compositing all look a bit off to other folks? Makes everything look very dinstinctly CG. I guess it's quite likely that we're looking at unfinished shots and it'll improve a bit before release.

Man I just... thought almost every part of the movie was complete and utter trash, including the CG and especially the bad comedy throughout. Since I'm seemingly in a tiny minority I'll just go away and let everyone else enjoy.
