Could have edited out a good 10 mins without that lake-town storyline...the relationship wasn't really earned and when she cleared the poison, the exchange didn't feel natural at all...it really only served to disrupt the Bilbo and Gandalf storyline. I was honestly sitting there strumming my fingers on some c'mon, hurry this shit up already so we can get back to the good stuff.
Lastly, Jackson did an excellent job of bridging the Hobbit w LoTR. Since unlike Tolkien, he has the luxury of going backwards, he could include some connections such as the weight of the ring wearing on Bilbo and also Sauron as the necromancer. Very well done.
Not a fan of the ending but not sure where else you could end it without either making this film too long or making part 3 too long.
