Here’s Everything Wrong With The Hobbit in Under Four Minutes [Video]

I'm a serious Middle-earth apologist, but I'm not even close to being a purist. Big difference.

Not to mention the Eagles aren’t beholden to their quest at this stage, just to Gandalf. Then there’s the fact that —

Er, I digress.
