      I mean, think those two are pretty similar actually. In terms of quality. I mean it’s pretty close the more I think about it. Star Wars might have a slight Edge actually. Very slight.

        Eh the only watchable of the sequel trilogy is the first one IMO.

        The Hobbit has the fantastic peformances of Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman holding up the 2nd movie.

        I also forgive Jackson for having a third movie because the battle of the five armies is less than a page in the book, and Hollywood as a whole is incapable of handling that concept.

          The first Hobbit film is the only watchable one too though. Except it’s only watchable in the First Act.

          Well I can’t agree with anything you’re saying about the second movie. It’s true I did like the initial scene between the two. However it was completely and utterly destroyed by the stupid Tom and Jerry style Chase sequence that followed it. That was the only redeeming scene in the entire film. Just that one simple scene. That was then ruined immediately afterwards. At least the second Star Wars had some great scenes. Multiple scenes. The whole movie was bad but it had some few redeeming aspects. And at least it was an interesting direction to take the series even if they screwed up immediately in the next film. The second Hobbit film has a nothing really to recommend it. On the other hand it has a just Avalanche of terrible aspects.

          I agree though the third movie of both series are both so atrociously bad they don’t even bare talking about. They’re both gargantuan pieces of shit. So bad that everyone involved should be horse whipped repeatedly.
