The first movie was supposed to be strictly Del Toro's vision,the second was supposed to mimic Jackson's vision. Del Toro's movie was shot to crap because WB wanted to extend the franchise with three movies, basically $$$$$$$$$, rather than substance. No doubt Del Toro's version would've been amazing.

I honestly think he's a really good visual director, has an eye for the camera and can make his film very grandeur like. But he always seems to struggle what story he actually wants to tell though (which is why his movies are always long for over 3 hours or more when it comes to theater releases). TLOTRs books already had the sources to help him which stories were important and a guide for him to follow. But ever since after TLOTRs, his films have been less story wise and more so lends his films as a more visual fest (CGI and practical effects). But his earlier films were interesting in my opinion, you can look them up (especially Heavenly Creatures). Maybe storytelling isn't his strongest suit? I think he has yet to really find any fictional source materials he really cares about or the passion like he did with TLOTRs.

He's a fantastic storyteller, LOTR was amazing because he was given like 2 years to prepare for all three movies and it worked.

It's all on rushed time, i believe Jackson could've made a better Hobbit movie, WB and MGM should've gave him more time. He even wanted to do Hobbit first and then LOTR but changed his mind due to him securing LOTR rights earlier, from what i know the Hobbit rights were on that Weinsteins and Miramax until 2006, Jackson can't regain that because the Weinsteins have so much power and the fact that he rightfully so, hates them

@@BryanCostner I'm well aware that he and practically everyone had little to no time to really understand what they needed to do and to properly make the the Hobbit film. Even came to the point when Peter, speculations, that Peter took his frustrations out on his actors and crew members. Because of the stress he was under in. As far as I remember there were three studios that were involved with the project as well and all were equally wanted Peter to hurry to meet the deadline. It was New Line Cinema that really pushed Peter cause at some point as a studio they were losing money and close to shutting down that they needed the Hobbit films to succeed to generate them money. So i think no one is denying the films weren't his fault in any way. But what I'm talking about is his films that aren't Middle-Earth related, it his films after TLOTRs that seem to lack or struggle any storytelling sense. Even on TLORs set, Peter and the writers were too rewriting and adding additional scenes or dialouges almost every day during production. Many of the cast members will tell you that. But also, it is normal during production for rewiting scenes on set even though a script is done and ready to go into production process. And for that, he wasn't winging it, but because he was trying t perfect the scenes. Recently in the years he seems to be focusing on documentary films and he seems to be very passionate about those so far and I can feel the love for him trying to create a narrative with documentary.

I guess Warner could have pushed later the release but it must be a nightmare to produce and reserve the release date. Plus Warner played its reputation on the trilogy. RE-EDIT: it was more a Metro Goldwyn Mayer financial situation that delayed the shootings, but they gave the green light merely several months after Del Torro left. If only could he have stayed a little bit more... he lost a one time project. That’s for sure.

The very same team who made Lord of the Rings clearly was passionate about making The Hobbit, but because of the finance problems and the problems with the studio they had to make up most of the movie as they were filming it

From interviews I've seen there were threats to take the movie out of nz if he didnt step in (ironically these threats came back later anyway). Jackson has a huge passion for lotr and the iconic connection of NZ as middle earth. While new zealanders are sometimes embarrassed about how we are really only associated as hobbits etc, losing this movie would have been a blow to part of our national identity. Lotr was a huge success worldwide, but it was a huge point of pride to the country of then 4 million. You can see this during Elijah woods statements about how insane the NZ premiere of lotr films were. So Jackson felt like he had no choice. You only have to see his weight gain over these films to see how much this hurt him

You have no idea...studio heads are businessmen. They would've gone forward without him at that point - 18 months of pre-production, legal battles settled, financial situation of the studio improved and then Del Toro leaves. From a pure business standpoint, it was harsh, but it made no sense to put off Hobbit for another year, or more. The studio was actually at least somewhat benevolent when they gave Jackson extra 6 months to prepare, but it's impossible to completely prepare a trilogy of epic three hour movies in 6 months.

It's actually pretty wild that New Line & MGM allowed this on their own DVD/Blu-Ray release. These are the kinds of things that everyone feels, but you rarely see a studio come out and admit that a project was so critically flawed. I mean, you won't find a video like this anywhere in the extra features of the Disney Star Wars trilogy, where they admit they had no firm grasp on what they were doing or where they were taking the story. The honesty is refreshing here. Then again, Jackson's Hobbit trilogy is one of the most ridiculous, undeniable cases of unpreparedness in cinematic history, so not including something like this would've just been laughable.

I doubt it. Better than they were probably, but not on par with LotR. The basic story isn't as interesting or gripping and the wealth of material that LotR had to draw on just isn't there. The Hobbit story really suffers in adaptation from having too many dwarves with no real distinguishing characteristics, unlike the Fellowship who are all different and richly drawn. I mean it's possible that they could have created interesting characters and arcs for them all out of basically nothing, but it's not an easy task at all to make that work, and my guess is that the films still would have leaned towards action over character. LotR was wonderful in large part because of the source material being wonderful. The Hobbit is a lesser book and was always going to make a lesser set of films, barring some kind of miracle.

He put a lot of heart into these projects. I love the the books a lot, but they wouldn't have been read by me if it wasn't for Peter and these movies.

Having One or two Hobbit movies at most spread out between 4-6 hours at most with a stronger script, more of the same old zeal and passion we saw from the Lord of the Rings and more real set pieces and practical effects to go along with the movie would have gone a long way. It would have also been nice to have Thorin and several of the other Dwarves either recast or completely redesigned in terms of clothing and makeup to make them look more like actual Dwarves and less like fan service pretty boys. We could have had another masterpiece on our hands.

I just re-watched the Hobbit trilogy after re-reading the book, and I have to admit I've largely reconsidered my prior negative assessment of the films. I think they would have been better received had they been made first. As prequels, they were bound to be disappointing, especially after the insane amount of hype they received. I think everyone involved tried too hard to make these movies more than they needed to be, but they do have a certain charm of their own. Yes, they are unfocused, but the studio's decision to make a trilogy out of a 200 page book made that inevitable. Yes, the characters are less fully realized, but that is true of the book as well. The often cartoonish nature of some of the action scenes, I now can see as reflecting the story's origin as a children's novel which often makes light of the characters' peril. And the added material involving the Necromancer actually does a decent job of foreshadowing LOTR without quite beating you over the head with it, while also explaining Gandalf's extended absence from the quest. My biggest complaint now is that the action sequences are all too long, which was obviously done to pad out the running time to turn what was meant to be two movies into three. My other complaint is that the star-crossed elf/dwarf romance is completely unnecessary, and probably only there out of studio insistence on the inclusion of a love interest. But taken on their own terms (and if watched before, rather than after, watching LOTR), I would say the movies serve as a good (though not necessarily great) appetizer for the grand epic to come later, just as the book does. I can see where all the production problems hampered the final product, but I can now enjoy them for what they are. Even with their flaws, they are better than 90% of the comic book movies Hollywood churns out these days.

I think this is the difference between the Star Wars prequels and The Hobbit. For the record, NEITHER trilogies are great movies by any stretch, but the reason why I'm more forgiving of The Hobbit is because of this. George Lucas has plenty of time between movies to prep, he was in complete control of his vision, and he still cranked out critically divisive products (and I'm someone who doesn't hate the prequels, though I will openly admit they are a massive step down from the Original Trilogy). Peter Jackson had no prep time, had to pick up from another filmmaker, was under pressure from the studio to make certain release dates, and still, somehow, the films that came out were, in my opinion, ranged from OK to Good (Desolation being the Good movie and the other two being OK) LOTR is transcendent and superlative filmmaking no doubt but I give The Hobbit a bit of a pass because of how much was going against Jackson. Lucas has no excuse, other than the fact that maybe he SHOULD have had a little bit of studio pressure on him.

Another thing that doesnt get mentioned in the Video is, that Guillermo del Toro was hired to direct The Hobbit in 2008 and also worked as a screenwriter on it, but left in 2010. His visual approach would have been something previously unseen in the World of Middle-Earth. more resembling a fairy tale than what came before. In doing so, the story kept constantly evolving - and grew to being a two-part endeavor - which kept pushing back the tentative production schedule. An Peter Jackson also had to redesign quite a lot. + Because of Short time at making more practial effects, costumes, and settings they had to use much more CGI than they wanted to. I wish Peter Jackson would have done the Hobbit alone from the Beginning, with enough production time.
