It looks as if (based on the trailer) the mood they are approaching is much more like LOTR. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but it is a definite departure.
The original story is a lark.
The original story was intended as a children's story, so yes, that is a fair assessment.
Like you I'm OK with it being taken more seriously in the movie.
