I'm cautiously optimistic about this because the reviews do seem to be better than it was for the first film. BUT, a lot of the rumblings I'm hearing is that it's more in line with the tone and feel of Lord of the Rings, which seems to be what most people want.

It's not what I want though. I wanted a children's movie.

But in any case, please baby jesus let the whole Legolas/Tauriel stupid love story thing be extremely brief. Thank you, amen.
