I actually disliked the first Hobbit film so much that I haven't seen the second. It'll be a Redbox rental for me. Can you explain a bit, though?
My main problem was the fact that Peter Jackson just seems to be trying to recreate the epic that was Lord of the Rings, when The Hobbit (book) is much more lighthearted and smaller scale. While it's very important in the history of Middle Earth, it's not end of the world stuff like LotR is. It's just a hobbit and some dwarves on a grand adventure.
However, my understanding was that, while things were being added (Gandalf and Sauron in Dol Guldur, etc), it's all stuff that we know actually happened from The Appendices and Lost Tales, etc. Is this not how it played out?
