Me too, much as I love dwarves - I'm far from happy with PJ's dwarves anyway. The first 43 minutes are approximately until they meet the trolls, after which I didn't like the film any more.

Haha love these sort of things! (although I'm never the one to find them...)

They did all the LOTR movies too. Please ignore the fact that they always mispronounce the names.

ROTK

Keep in mind, they don't care what happened in the book, it only matters if it was explained in the movie, because they know that not everyone in the audience will have read the novel.

Nice. At the moment, I've seen the one for FotR. I have to say, they missed a big one with Moria. Something like "did Gimli really think Balin was still alive after seeing dead Dwarves at the entrance, or is letting bodies rot just common practice?"

I found (and enjoyed) this lecture about Tolkien's life and why Jackson's Hobbit movies are as they are (though you have to wait for ~36 minutes to see why).
