elusivekOr rather, Martin Freeman, haha.
He's pretty good in being clueless and flabbergasted/shocked/tongue-tied/lost. As Dr. Watson, as young Bilbo. So, yeah... LOL
I got endlessly kicked at from the people behind me. UA seats are known to be wide and with lots of leg room, and they were still kicking me!
Next time if I go to UA, I will equip myself with a cup of popcorns. Preferably caramel ones. With a heater, so the caramel stays damp and sticky. If they kick me more than 5 times, then I will start throwing dripping caramel popcorn missiles behind me.
As for The Hobbit, I can only imagine how the book would have read (and I don't really want to read it). Scenery's gorgeous, without saying. I loved the Brown Wizard... but, coming to think of it, I might want to read the book... because the movie seemed to leave a lot of loose ends... oh! What should I do??
Back to the movie, expect it to end in a cliffy. Yes, there will be a part 2. I probably would watch it too, just because I want to know what happens next. That and I distinctively remember seeing a clip in one of those the makings that they had to "sail" down a river in barrels, and i think that would be fun to see them being so... helpless... I'm mean!
Anyway!
First, I'm going out for lunch. Then I'm going to stroll through the city and walk past a couple of bookshops, and pass by the library, maybe sit down and read for an hour or so... heehee!

I will say that Radagast the Brown is only mentioned in the book so that entire scene in the film was an addition...but like you, it was one of my favorite bits.
There are actually going to be two more films, so I'd also recommend reading the book so you don't have to wait two more years for the conclusion of the story :)
