Cool Videos: How The Hobbit should have ended

I am a fan of THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY. While not as good as THE LORD OF THE RINGS trilogy, it was still a hell of a lot of fun. Many have complained that it was unnecessarily drawn out just to make it into a trilogy, which I do agree with somewhat.

The one argument I have always had with the series is that if Gandalf has access to these big ass birds, why can’t they just give everyone a ride right to the Lonely Mountain? I mean, they rescue them and then leave them about halfway to the final destination. Couldn’t they have landed, grabbed some grub, then picked up the group again for the rest of the trip? Seems unnecessarily complicated. It is an argument for better men than me, namely Internet spoof makers.
