I think the timing was maybe wrong for The Hobbit.. it didn't seem to have the same hype train around it. Then the first film was such a let down. The journey of what is it, 12 dwarves? Is not nearly as interesting as the moving parts in LOTR. You really had no idea who was who and they had such limited lines to say, it was just a mess.
The one bright spot from The Hobbit was Martin Freeman. He did such a good job. Which is funny because the parts I don't like and mostly fast forward when I re watch the LOTR trilogy are with Frodo, and with The Hobbit it is the opposite.
