(Re-Post) The Hobbit - Movies vs. the Book, Part 1
Sunday Sep 10, 2023
Sunday Sep 10, 2023
IN THIS REPEAT: The first of a two-part round table discussion of The Hobbit - The book vs. The movies
In book form The Hobbit has been available for nearly 80 years, but the third and final movie installment was just released late last year. No one suggests the three films are perfect adaptations, but how far off do they really miss the mark? William O’Flaherty is joined by Dr. Charlie Starr, Dr. Crystal Hurd and Brenton Dickieson to discuss whether or not one can still enjoy the movies despite their imperfections. This FIRST of two part discussion starts off with considering whether or not the three movies as a whole are better than the individual parts.
