I have no desire to see such a movie, but if you went expecting anything other than another sacrifice at the altar of Seth MacFarlane's ego, more fool you...

I didn't expect Ted to be anything but Family Guy in a different format and nor do I think I ever stated that I did. The only way Ted disappointed was by being, in my opinion, more boring than Family Guy. I expected it to be about as much fun.

Guilermo del Toro should have done this, it would be a lot darker and less silly. Or maybe Monty Python back in the day, now that would be something.

Well, it is a kids story. I get what you mean about exaggerated CG, though, and I also prefer latex and ketchup. As for the exaggerated action scenes, it did get a bit hectic, but at least I feel it fits somewhat with the fact that, unlike LOTR which is more of an account of simply what goes on, The Hobbit is supposed to be told (well, written) by Bilbo who is free to exaggerate and fantasize as he wants.
