Having been made to wait what seemed an unfair amount of time between Return of the King and the first part of the Hobbit, having read every tidbit of news from legal delays to the first production blogs, I was as giddy as a seven year old on a Chuckie Cheese birthday when last Friday finally came. So maybe (erm...no, probably) I was a little sensitive and surprised at the myriad of negative reviews, especially considering I was still as content as a dog in a fart factory upon leaving the theater. I've come to a couple of conclusions in light of this: (1) in large, the critics have been swept suddenly with a fierce bout of ADD, and (2) Peter Jackson did not make his movie to suit them.
