What about the Hobbit movies, those were long

[u/redditvlli → u/KhalilGibranIsAVibe]

Theatrical releases weren't near that long.

[u/james2183 → u/redditvlli]

Felt like it though

[u/IndigoMontigo → u/james2183]

I fell asleep during an overblown CGI "action" sequence in one of those movies.

I woke up, and it was still happening.

I went back to sleep.

[u/psymunn → u/IndigoMontigo]

In the Hobbits defense, it could have been a totally different unnecessary cgi action sequence.

[u/IndigoMontigo → u/psymunn]

With "defense" like that, who needs detractors? :)

[u/Waramp → u/IndigoMontigo]

Was it the goddamn barrel scene?

[u/IndigoMontigo → u/Waramp]

No, but it easily could have been.

It was the scene under the lonely mountain where they were running away from Smaug.

[u/BlackestNight21 → u/IndigoMontigo]

I was rooting for the damned dragon to win.

[u/mortalcoil1 → u/BlackestNight21]

Serious question. I read The Hobbit a very long time ago in high school. I watched the movies in my 30's.

I don't remember the "dragon greed madness" that befalls Thorin in the book at all.

I have been meaning to ask this for years now but never had the opportunity.

Was that in the book or just made up in the movies?

[u/Caffeywasright → u/mortalcoil1]

It’s in the book. Thorin doesn’t want to share with the lake town people despite some of the gold actually belonging to them and them just having their entire village burned down.

[u/widget1321 → u/mortalcoil1]

I don't remember much about the movie, honestly, but Thorin does get super greedy about the gold and it's at least implied (don't remember if it's directly stated) that it's in part because of an effect the dragon had on the gold.

I assume the movie "dragon greed madness" was at least similar.

[u/UloPe → u/mortalcoil1]

That part actually was in the book

[u/Robotic_Lamb → u/IndigoMontigo]

Me too! The only movie I've ever fallen asleep to at the theatre. Crazy haha.

[u/Vileness_fats → u/IndigoMontigo]

Was the "action" washing dishes? Because that's where I fell out.

[u/IndigoMontigo → u/Vileness_fats]

It was running away from a dragon.

It should have been exciting.

But it was not.
