Watched a 4 hour cut of The Hobbit with some friends tn. *spoilers*

Some editor cut the trilogy into a single 4 hour film. They did some own custom CGI and scene construction to make everything flow more seamlessly

It was tremendous. Easily the definitive version of that story in film, and I'd put it equal with the LotR films.

The M4 Edit, it was; I believe.

No Tauriel, almost no Azog, almost no Bolg, less annoying shout outs to the LotR trilogy, less Lake Town crap.

It's called the Tolkien cut as I recall.

This one was specifically called M4's The Book Cut

The Tolkien Cut is I think a slightly different, older version

I've always wanted to watch one of those because there's plenty of good parts to the Hobbit movies but there's so many garbage parts in between them

Martin Freeman was a great pick

I highly recommend the M4 cut

All the best parts of those films with none of the fluff.

With the added benefit of focusing more intently on Bilbo and the Dwarves
