The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies

I really liked the opening scene with Smaug. I did find myself enjoying most of the battle sequences, however, this movie had nonstop action throughout and it began to get a little overwhelming. I definitely prefer the LOTR trilogy more but the Hobbit trilogy was still a fun time

un de mes films préférés :)

Genuinely an experience I'll never forget. All 6 movies each have something memorable and Peter Jackson knew just how to do it. Both trilogies begin with starters and end with dessert. Stocked with lore/fantasy/horror/comedy/action/tension/mystery/anticipation/heartbreak. This may just be my favourite for the constant politic-like narrative between so many different races, and of course for the non-stop unreal/insane/ghastly visuals. I ended up loving so many characters that I couldn't bear. Scenes reach a height not even Sauron could handle, to start it with peak horror and astonishment and carry it through the entire runtime? Aglareb. I didn't want it to be over...now I'm sad.

This movie may be the weakest of the three but I can’t help but love it, especially how it ties right into the lord of the rings trilogy, after rewatching this movie, seeing Bilbo say farewell to the dwarfs it always makes me tear up.

Balin was the best dwarf of all but seeing the characters mourn the death of 3 of their own was hard to watch, being with the characters for 3 whole movies and watching us lose three is a lot to handle.

Either way these movies still hold up very very well, and I would suggest anyone and everyone to give them a watch, they will have you smiling, laughing and even crying in the end.

😭😭😭 Thorin, Kili, and Fili, ahhhh because. I hate getting as attached as the characters.
