I was disappointed by the CG in the series. While it was present in the Lord of the Rings movies, I did like seeing less CG in the armies and what not.

And seriously.... Why have Thorin's cousin be CG? Anybody else cringe when Thorin went and hugged him and it went from real actor to CG between the different shots?

 

*edit* and it also felt pretty rushed. Would like to see what the extended edition looked like.

Apparently, and this is a rumor so take it with a grain of salt, because the actor portraying him had parkinsons he couldn't complete the role or something so they had to CG him and just use his voice.

Hmm that's interesting if that's true. Still, we're not at the point where it looks seamless so it ended up looking odd.

The guy who played him also played the King from Brave.
