I was excited for it until they showed all the walking. Not sure I can handle another 3 hours of walking

In all seriousness, glad Peter Jackson is at the helm again. I liked some of del Toro's stuff, but I didn't think his particular style would work as well for the Hobbit. Can't waaaait.

I was kinda joking about the twilight... but it is good to have a nice easy read now and again. Tolkien was writing a mythology, not so much a novel, so it's understandable that there's a lot more depth and background than you would expect or perhaps want in a book. And yes, walking.
