The Hobbit. Excellently done, although the tension and action level is ramped way up. On the other hand, the dwarfs in the original novel don't exactly do much, so.... (I commented after re-reading The Hobbit about 3 months ago that the dwarfs were exceedingly inept all things considered.)

Saw The Hobbit Thursday. Good, but not quite as good as the LOTR stuff. I really didn't need many of the added bits (Three stooges Trolls, the Warg vs Radegast the Brown's podracing scene, the Del Toro-esque storm giant scenes, the POTC goblin fight scenes, and so on).

 

Last movie watched was Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, which is now available for streaming on Netflix. It's not as bad as I remembered, but it's still no Xanadu. ;)

I like Xanadu as well, mainly for the music. I tend to watch it when I need something light and it's available on streaming, about once a year or so.
