Literally my first thought. The way they made three long movies from the Hobbit just killed the original story.

Maybe try the "Tolkien Edit?" Although even cut down to four hours, I still couldn't stomach it.

The book is a short story compare to the LOTR book trilogy. As a result, the movie cannot be that diverse and fast-pased, so it inevitable becomes boring after a while.
