The adventure follows the journey of title character Bilbo Baggins, who is swept into an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the fearsome dragon Smaug. Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of thirteen dwarves led by the legendary warrior, Thorin Oakenshield. Their journey will take them into the Wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Giant Spiders, Shapeshifters and Sorcerers.

Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever…Gollum.

Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of guile and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum’s "precious" ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities … A simple, gold ring that is tied to the fate of all Middle-earth in ways Bilbo cannot begin to know.

Never understood the appeal of Lord Of The Rings / Hobbit stuff..from my point of view I just can't become invested in the characters.

Small guys with big hairy feet,dress wearing wizards,effeminate elves & skinny bald albino weirdo who obsesses over jewelry isn't my thing.

Star wars was obviously influenced by LOTR but SW just simply has cooler characters,Darth Vader,Han Solo..even Yoda is much preferred over Gollum in my opinion.

Besides light sabers & blasters are superior weapons than swords & bows/arrows.

Only two great SW films though.And why not love em both,I do?

As opposed to small creatures with fur all over and shocking racial stereotypes. I'm talking the movies here not the books.

@sameoldthing

Transformers are more powerful than Jedis, does that make Transformers a better series than Star Wars?

Your logic is flawed.

---

You don't "understand" the appeal of LOTR? You don't understand that quite a few people enjoy fantasy set in quasi-Middle Ages? There's nothing really to "understand" there. It's just a fact.

I think you meant that LOTR doesn't appeal to you. If that is the case, then what do you want us to do about it? If it doesn't, it doesn't. Do you want people to try and convince you of it, when you seem so dead set on letting your mind remain unchanged?

Your comment lacks purpose.

Ori looks like he has Hutchinson–Gilford Progeria Syndrome... And Kili is a pretty boy dwarf with no prostetics? He just looks regular...

@sameoldthing - The appeal most of us have in LOTR is the range and depth of the characters and their narrative journeys. The level of detail in the expansive imagination that has gone into the historical aspects of its universe all from the mind of one man is outstanding.

Star Wars in comparison is a haphazard of make it up as you go movies that's based heavily on SFX spectacle rather than plot. The stories range from adequate to outright stupid even with the help of its expanded universe with real writers doing their best to bolster the shabby movies with some pretty decent novels, comics and computer games.

Only in Star Wars films do you find the character relationship circles despite such a huge universe, still profoundly small. Once you go back to the original movie before the make it up stuff happened, you find Darth Vader sensing something on the Death Star after capturing the Millennium Falcon and he can't put his finger on it.. Seriously? By sheer contrivance off the later films we have in one place:

1) His former master and once best friend.
2) His son
3) His old companion R2 unit which now belongs to his son
4) The first translator droid he built as a boy
5) His future son in law
6) His old Lightsaber
7) His daughter in a detention block
8) The Wookie that helped one of his former teachers escape the Jedi holocaust that he started.

Kili looks to much like a young Aragorn.
