    I hear the writers invented new characters, which in my mind is a serious offense when a classic is involved. Looking forward to your review.

    From what I know they brought characters from LOTR that didn't appear in The Hobbit back to The Hobbit, such as Legolas.

    That's a less serious offense, IMO.
