Fili and Kili...sorry but one does not simply separate them. They come as a pair. A lot of people probably thing, "Of course they're your favorite, they're attractive." Yes they're handsome, but I actually liked them in the book before pictures even came out. I liked them before I even knew there was going to be the Hobbit movie. They have been/always will be my favorite characters.
Favorite Actor
IMartin Freeman-Bilbo Baggins
No one could've portrayed Bilbo better!
Favorite Actress
Since Cate Blanchett was the only actress in the AUJ(and she is a great actress), I'd have to say that one woman in Dale in the beginning when everyone is having a jolly time before Smaug attacks. She's wandering around with her husband/fiancé...yeah you guys have no idea who she is but I always come up with stories about her and how she survived Smaug's attack.

What Are Your Personal Thoughts on the Movie?
One of my favorite things about movies is when we're introduced to the main characters. I loved all the flashbacks that tied up the lose parts people might not have understood=) It's more depressing if you watch it after BOTFA...*muffled crying in corner*. But I enjoyed it so much since it was the beginning of a new chapter in PJ's films! I grew up watching LOTR so I was really excited to get to see more! Also, the actors/actresses were cast perfectly!

What Are Your Personal Thoughts on the Movie?
I loved how they added all the small details from the book in the movies. I was hoping the scene when Beorn was following the dwarves/Bilbo/Gandal to make sure they gave his points back was in the movie and it was! I was so happy=) It was a great 2nd movie in a trilogy and I loved all the flash backs. PJ even had Thorin have a flashback-in-a-flashback:D This is what my sister said about Kili and Tauriel, "I've kind of gone back and froth on this relationship, but I've never not likes it. It's either I'm okay with it or I really love it...Personally I think it's something Tolkien would actually love. He wrote about so many interracial love stories. The thing I love most about Kili and Tauriel is how much they both are fascinated by the outside world. They both long to see things they haven't yet. She's curious and loves to leave Mirkwood forest at night, looking up into the stars. Kill loves traveling and he took such care to tell her about the enormous red fire moon rising over Erid Luin, his home. They have this sweet, innocent curiosity and it's so endearing.". I couldn't have said it better myself, Sis!
