Although i've still not sat through the final Hobbit film.
I found the original trilogy much more engaging, the overuse of CGI in the newer films makes me zone out. The first three use CGI but it's mixed with a lot more props and sets which made them seem more real.

I really like The Hobbit trilogy. While obviously not on par with the three TLOTR films, they’re still terrific entertainment. The Battle of the Five Armies is the weakest of all six, but I still really enjoyed it. It’s just one long battle sequence with set-piece after set-piece, but despite the lack of story, it still manages to be emotional and rousing, due to its solid execution in resolving everything that was set-up in the first two films.
