a review of THE HOBBIT: THE DESOLATION OF SMAUG

Now that GHOST IN THE SURGE is done, and I’m almost done with the rough draft of FROSTBORN: THE UNDYING WIZARD, I finally went to see THE DESOLATION OF SMAUG. It was a thoroughly entertaining sword-and-sorcery film with lots of action and adventure.

That said, I heard a rumor that THE DESOLATION OF SMAUG was in fact based on THE HOBBIT by J.R.R. Tolkien, but after seeing the film, I can confidently say that rumor has no basis in fact whatsoever. 🙂
