    I think Thorin's story is one of the most important in all Tolkien. Like Vader, the lesson here is that no matter how much you might have fucked up, done bad things, or hurt people, it's never too late to do the right thing. Even when you might feel there's no point anymore and no one will forgive you anyways, doing the right thing is always worth it.

      Thorin deserve every hate he can get, he was very very poorly interpreted, without any of the depth nor subtlety that character needed, and it's not removing credit from the actor, because it's a team effort.
      But Thorin is the worst character of the trilogy, by a loooong mile. He's just a cringe lord, he felt like it in cinema, and still does after 10 years.

    Thorin's sickness wasn't his choice. He couldn't help it. The gold king sickness resembles a bit the effect the ring had on Frodo and Smeagol. They can't control it up to a point. Thorin had many flaws, typical to dwarves. But he was a great king for their people. Perfect characters like Legolas aren't realistic. Thorin was a very realistic character with many flaws, but really good and loyal at heart, and a great leader.

      Thorin and Dwarves in general are more interested in Gold,Sliver and Gems as they were made out of the Earth by Aule and not made like the Elves and Men by Eru Illuvatar. So elves are a little different from the others. The elves are not pure they have a history of kin slaying and greed themselves. It was Actually the Men who came to the aid of Elves to defeat Morgoth and then Sauron. Tolkein talks in the prolog to LOTR of the difference in perspectives of the immortal vs the mortal. The Akenstone is buried with Thorin.

Thorin is a good example that nobody is perfect. He is realistic. Leoglas is on the other hand not so realistic (no hate against him, I love him). That's why they should respect Thorin more. But still I don't hate them. They acknowledge the Hobbit trilogy and most of them understood the movies, but still not everyone.

    Its not right for u to judge Thorin the way u did. He went through a SICKNESS that was in his blood. He overcame it which is rare and hard af to do.. Forget all the good things he's done for his people and his group just bc he treated Bilbo bad during his sickness and bc he didnt give some gold to Men. Thranduil was a btch and was obsessed over his jewels and he turned his back to Thorin. Ofc he'd feel some sort of way for the Elves. (Elves that kept them in dungeons btw and hunted them for a bit) You dont just forget that as a dwarf king.
    Thorin is by far the best character in this series. Bilbo and him ended their friendship on good terms. Overcame his sickness and is the reason why they won btw.
    A king joining a fight boosts the morale of his people tremendously. "What are extra 10 dwarfs gonna do" is funny af considering Gimli alone was taking down 50-100 orcs at least but thats lotr so its fine he is allowed to do that!. Smh

      It's fair as they kept resetting his character growth between movies. He didn't trust the high elves in Rivendell because Peter Jackson wanted drama, then accepted Bilbo at the end of An Unexpected Journey, then looked down on him as a coward that ran away when they got captured by the elves, then saw him as clever at the door, then when he actually kept his trust in Bilbo, he didn't trust any of his kin and they made the Arkenstone as a corrupting item when it never did. Thorin refused to leave the mountain to help laketown because the elves helped them, and he still didn't trust the wood elves. He did feel betrayed by Bilbo in the book and then forgave him on his death bed, but his motivation throughout the movies is broken

    The wealth Bilbo returned with to the shire was written to be a small chest of gold, don't forget he was limited to what he could carry back home also, that is what he returned with. The gold he could fit in his chest makes him a very rich man shire wise so he would certainly have no issues, Baggin's was a quietly wealthy family after he returned.
    Regardless of the gold he brought back, the mithril shirt he now owns value exceeds the value of the entire landmass of the Shire. Bilbo in that sense, is an obnoxiously rich Hobbit.
    'What?' cried Gimli, startled out of his silence. 'A corslet of Moria-silver? That was a kingly gift!' Yes,' said Gandalf. 'I never told him, but its worth was greater than the value of the whole Shire and everything in it.'
    Bilbo if he was ever hard pressed, would never need to worry about money.

    Some more info about Tauriel:
    As mentioned, she was not invented by Tolkien, but by the studio which produced the Hobbit-movies. Since the original book "The Hobbit" didn`t include any love story, the studio wanted to invent a new one. ~10 years ago I had a long conversation with a few people from WETA Workshop, who also confirmed that Peter Jackson HATED that idea and especially the "forbidden romance" between Tauriel and Kili. But the studio insisted, and they got the money, soooo ... 🤷🤷
    And most Lotr fans feel the same, because in Tolkien`s world a romance between an elf and a dwarf is ... absolutely impossible. Not actually forbidden, but it´s .... hard to explain, they are made differently so that that wouldn`t be possible.
    So what they did with Tauriel and Kili, they are immensely breaking the Lore here.
    And, what makes it even more despising:
    Elves can only love once. When their loved one/ true love dies, they fall into great despair (good example is Thranduil, or also Elrond).
    That is what Tauriel & Thranduil are saying:
    "Why does it hurt so much?" - "Because it was real."
    Meaning Kili - a dwarf - was indeed her one true love. Which makes it really really bad, according to Tolkiens original lore.
    Also meaning: she can never love again.
    That´s why Legolas turns away and leaves. He knows that.
    Friendzone level: eternity 😂😂
    .
    .
    There´s lot of jokes about Tauriel`s existence:
    "Why does it hurt so much?"
    - "Because it wasn`t in the books."
    T: "Are we not part of this world?"
    L: "No, you`re not even part of the book."
    (Sorry 😂😜 )

    You really can't give too much ripe against Thorin's sickness in greed, which ran through from his grandfather, which could've been expanded on a bit more, but the time constraints that Peter Jackson faced thanks to constant pressure from the studios made him cut down so much. Also the charge of the Company, in the book, they were wearing heavy armor but the actors weren't able to run in them due to how heavy it was, so it ended up becoming more symbolistic than how it was in the book where the armor of Erebor was extremely effective.

    Frodo did not come into Bilbo's life, as his heir, until after this adventure. When Bilbo had his birthday party he was 111. Frodo turned 30 on the same day. Bilbo adopted Frodo after his parents died in an accident ( think they drowned). The reason I know this is that according to hobbit laws and rules, a hobbit cannot own or be left property before they are 30. When Bilbo left the shire to live with the elves, Frodo could then inherit Bag End. Thanks for sharing.

    Galadriel didn’t become evil in that scene the book described that as “Elf revealed in wrath” that’s an elf wrath visualization and she’s not just any elf she’s oldest elf and the most powerful. Thats how they look when in wrath apparently. How can Galadriel be evil? She has always been described as the purest of them all like a virgin mary in the book.

He still gave an incredible performance as always.

    Please you should pay more respect to Thorin. Yes he did some things wrong, but nobody is perfect. He was SICK and he overcome it. Its unnecessary to just hate him and not acknowledge the things he did for his people. The wars he fought and the things he lost. He is one of the best characters in all this franchise. He is a good person and he died for his people. He is a honourable person, king and warrior.

      It's about the execution. For example, a lot of good scenes are just ruined by that human there for comic relief. It's why marvel movies are so bad since nothing is serious. It takes art to interweave epic scenes with serious fights to ensure it doesn't become a laughing stock.

    Should’ve watched the extended. The Iron Hill Dwarves vs Mirkwood Elves initial battle was way more epic than this. The fact you are not in a cinema but in your personal home/house is enough to start with the extended version. It’s a fact that majority have seen more of the theatric versions than the extended in all kinds of movies. Because they’re the first to be watched before the extended version are released. Unless you’re going to react again but to the extended rather than off screen. Why? Because of deleted scenes. And re-arranged scenes. Scenes much better/epic. And because helps reduce confusion compared to the theatrical version where some details are left questioned but may be answered in the extended.

    U r wrong about Thorin. I was pissed when he was acting like an ass BUT was really rooting he will redeem himself because he’s always been the not typical ” character type. The three in the middle underestimate the dragon sickness lmaoz His character showed a lot in the movie. Very interesting and not what the the typical “ i like him from the start to finish type” so when he changed back from the sickness these girls couldn’t accept that. they’re like “omy how is that possible he was supposed to be an ass” but nope. Surprises surprises. Well written characters aren’t built with plot like that. U gotta be flexible u can’t just hate the character just because they don’t go your typical expected way. but I’m glad the guys are liking how thorin redeemed himself and not agreeing with them. They recognize the circumstances the sickness and all and acknowledging all he did not just the one bad thing. These girls are just closeminded. To be fr the grls are extreme reactors and talks a LOT. the boys on the otherhand are laser focused and we prefer that. My cousins and I watches your channel everytime and we share the same views.
