Almost all of them when I had read the book first.

The Hobbit

The latest (The Hobbit) I got my son to read the book, then watch the movies and he's like 'Whaaaaaa???' because they tried to amplify it into a blockbuster.

So yes, Great movie - but sucked after reading the book.

I had friends who actually preferred the Hobbit to LOTR because of more action (according to them) But then I slowly told them all the shit that they just added for no reason and now they hate me

The latest The Hobbit(s) were terrible, the old animated film was actually not bad.
