Perhaps so, but oh my Gods, the music! it's absolutely perfect, sending chills up and down my spine, enough to carry one away to the Lonely Mountain, just as Tolkien described. I'll give Jackson et al license to make changes, they have proven their love for Tolkien long before now.
Can we not simply contact the good Doctor, borrow his Tardis, and GO TO NEXT YEAR? Because I for one do not believe I can wait until December 2012. (Isn't the world supposed to end the same week this opens? Coincidence? I think not.)
Watching everything in the right order will require waiting two years, since the Hobbit has been split in to two movies. One releases next Dec, and the second releases the Dec after it.
I think my favorite comment that I saw last night was "A Peter Jackson movie is never late, nor is it early, it arrives precisely when he means it to."
