Hi, it's been quite a long time since I've gotten this edit but I finally found the time to watch it! I've watched it with someone who has never watched the Hobbit before and she followed the story mostly fine, so that's really great!

The only thing that really threw me off was the "2 months later" when you transitioned between movie 1 and 2.... I don't think it's plausible for them to be at the same location for 2 months. Is there a reason why you chose that time frame? I'd be grateful for an answer.

Otherwise it's an awesome edit, thanks for the great work! I'll definitely recommend it to my friends!

Thanks for the review!

In the original there was a flashback in the second movie, which then flashed forward 12 months to where Bilbo hides from Beorn. To use the transition for my edit, I changed the 12 months into 2 months.

After their hopeful lookout onto the their destination from The Carrok (the mountain where the eagles drop them off), they have to travel down and somehow get near Beorn's house and who knows what happened inbetween.

First off: my Enjoyment level just beeing 8 is purely because of the Films themselves.
I´m somehow over the Hobbit, if you know what i mean.
I have never read the Hobbit or LOTR and so i was ok with pretty much everything back when it came out. Except, i felt it all in parts repetitiv and to long. That was before the Extended Cuts came out.
And dont get me wrong, all the Fans love the effort and thet Directors even care enough to put so much work into something is great.

This Edit came to play because i wanted to try different approaches to the whole, so i watched the Marple Cut that was mentioned a lot on the net. And than i was given the DonKamillo CVut of The Batman in his Mini Series Format that i loved somuch.
The only thing to do know, was to see the Hobbit again in this Series Format and i did something that i have not expected: I made me have real Fun with the whole thing again.
The Episodical Format works so well in this case, one can start and with ho stress watch the rest later :)

The films really are Dustcollectors on my Shelf now.
DonKamillo's edting is excellent- the cuts are seamless (for me).
Eeach episode moves with the pace it needs and so much Buffermaterial is gone.
I did not miss anything. I had room to let the Episode sink in, when i felt it was needed and came back to the next one.

As a miniseries, done by DonKamillo, this is the second time i enjoyed a film more after his touches.
I tip my Cap to you DK.

I greatly enjoyed this edit. Especially the idea of making it a mini series is incredibly. The pacing is terrific and each episode basically invites the viewer to immediately binge the next.

It reminded me how people when I ask to watch a long movie go NOOO three hours are you INSANE? But then does binge 5 episodes of a tv show for five hours lmao. I think this approach makes the Hobbit far more accessible!

Well done and if I had to nitpick it would be that the ending still feels edited, which is to be expected considering the terrible source material. I havent seen a single edit where the final battle was completely satisfying for me, but kudos because it was very creative with the flashback!
