[TH] A (non-serious analysis)

So, the Hobbit. A group of bearded foreign folks with weird accents who got kicked out of their homeland two generations ago and haven't had a real country since then, trying to take it back using homemade weaponry, fighting an enemy who stereotypically loves only wealth.

Peter Jackson made a really anti-Semitic movie.

Interesting observation. The scene where Bilbo talks about helping the dwarves take back their home, which has been taken from them by force, did have me thinking that PJ was trying to inject some contemporary political undertones into the film...
