It seems they significantly increased the budget of each hobbit movie compared to each of the LOTR movies but proceeded to spend the excess amount on CGI? They could of done the Hobbit movies on a lesser budget with more realistic effect. TBH I had rather they not have done a Hobbit trilogy as I didn't see any reason to. The Hobbit is a decent childrens story and not an epic like The Lord of the Rings.(less)
