11 means nothing though I'm sure it won't go down much.

It should probably end up overall positive reviews. I don't pay much attention to reviews though.. Which includes games as well. :P

You gargoyles realise that there's been more than 11 reviews right? This is just RT. The critical reception from early screenings has been hugely positive. They just don't have reviews up on the site yet.

...okay? According to one RT poster, there have been two negative reviews so far for the film. Just hasn't made its way onto the meter.

If there were 2 negative reviews I can tell you now the IMDB board page would be all over it. Someone had made a huge thread posting all of the reviews and none have been negative so far.

I mean I'm expecting it to get good reviews, all I'm saying is I don't expect it to stay that high. Since there are 11 reviews on RT, that's the number I'm going by. When more get put in, that number will update. I mean I already bought a ticket to the midnight showing anyway so reviews aren't going to change whether I go see the movie. :P

Also when you put "11 reviews" in your thread title, you can hardly blame us for citing that number.

There's some movies you got to see no matter what. I think The Hobbit is another one like that for me. Lord of the Rings is what I'd consider my most favourite movies of all time.

Big-time Hollywood filmmaking at its most massively accomplished, this last installment of Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy makes everything in the rival Marvel universe look thoroughly silly and childish.

~Todd McCarthy

WoW - considering how awesome Avengers was, that's a pretty profound statement.

MY question is this: Is it as good as Dark Knight?

I'm only comparing it the Dark Knight. Is it as good as that movie?

I've heard bad things from early impressions about the higher FP/s making things seem more fake than usual on screen. But I'm still going to watch it!

I still think it is only going to be ok for me, BB was alright, TDK was great but only because of the joker, I read some of the reviews and they list a good amount of flaws, yet they still give it an awesome score because it is a Nolan film. I'm going to judge on merit alOne not because it is a nolan film.

I know exactly what "pretentious" means. The LOTR films try too hard to seem grandiose. Everything from the names of the characters to the descrpitions of lands to be traveled to makes it obvious that the writer (J.R. Tolkien) and the filmmakers wants to create this sense of awe. The problem is that the sense of awe doesn't feel natural; it feels forced and subsequently corney.

I can see where the "Shire" and "Frodo"..and "Bilbo Baggins" or "Gollum" would be considered "grandiose"....if you don't like the movie fine...but don't come up with a dumbass reason for your dislike of a great series of movies.......

I think it's funny when people have decided a movie should only get positive reviews when they themselves have never seen it.

It's like they feel the movie will be ruined by someone else's opinion - so if it gets a bad review, people trash the critic.

On the other hand, if the same critic likes the movie, people will cite the critic's own review article using it to fuel their fanboyism.

It's almost as bad as system wars - just liking one thing and trashing another thing because you don't personally agree with it - even if you have ZERO experience with whatever it is you're talking about.

Fanboys are so annoying - "It's a Nolan Movie - it HAS to be good. Anyone who doesn't like it must be an idiot."

It was for what they showed. I think it was IGN writing about it. They said it was back down to normal.

Kinda sucks that they went against there own ideas to please the critics, but it's just the frame rate at the end of the day. The film is still the same. :)

The Hobbit Comic-Con reel was 2D and 24fps because they wanted to avoid the April situation where everyone wrote about framerate but nothing about the actual content.

BluRayHiDef

Lolwut

It's a story that defined the entire high-fantasy book genre, converted into movie format. I mean it is a novel series that took Tolkien years of planning. He spent most of it doing character studies as opposed to actually writing the plot, which came together because of the characters. I find it silly to call something with that much effort put into it, as well as only one obvious interpretation, as "pretentious." Pretension is like watching Melancholia.

I'll be watching TDKR this weekend. Looking forward to seeing how Nolan's trilogy (?) ends.

Ok, it's 15 reviews and still 100%

Let's see how long it holds up.
