I read this on a message board and now I am imbued with a new sense of urgency to see The Hobbit (going this Saturday):
"Everything I love about LOTR is basically in The Hobbit minus the oppressive feeling of doom."
I feel this person greatly. This person (or someone else, can't remember) went on to talk about how relatively boring the hobbits are compared to the other characters. Agreed wholeheartedly. Whenever I watch it at home, I fast forward through nearly all the hobbit parts (particularly when Gollum, Samwise and Freddo go gallavanting through marshes and swamps and crap) and only watch Gimli (son of Gloin) and the other dudes go adventuring.
Seriously, it is so boring to watch two dingy little hobbits and their wrinkly bedfellow wade through dirty water and eat fish. It's also incredibly depressing. Poor Sam.
Going to eat froyo later. Very excited. It's hot.
