The Hobbit movies are far from LOTR levels, but even comparing them to the Star Wars prequels is dumb. The Hobbit movies actually has talent, effort and you can see that people put a lot of work into this. Despite feeling more CGI than the LOTR movies, you can still tell that they cared enough to go out and shoot, instead of every shot being in front of a green screen. Despite the book being stretched out way too much, the scripts of the Hobbit movies are still way above Star Wars prequels levels. And mainly, Peter Jackson is a great filmmaker, and that really shows in the movies. George Lucas is not a good filmmaker. He's a great idea-man, and his best contribution to Star Wars was not behind the camera, but rather the world he created.
And while this may be slightly off topic, I think people give the actors of the Star Wars prequels way too much shit, when it's really the script and bad writing that's the problem. You have actors like Natalie Portman, Liam Neeson, Samuel L Jackson and Ewan McGregor, there's some serious talent there. And while he's not on the same level as them, Hayden Christiansen is far from being as bad as people make it out to be. I don't even think Daniel Day Lewis could deliver the "sand is coarse and rough and gets everywhere" quote without sounding like a jackass. Hayden Christiansen is a decent actor who was given some of the worst lines ever, in addition to playing a really dumb character. (The whole way the transformation happens and how it is written is just completely baffling)
But anyhow, while I've seen the Hobbit movies once and don't feel a strong urge to re-watch them, I feel like even comparing them to the Star Wars prequels is like comparing The Beatles to Rebecca Black.
