WE ARE FINALLY BACK WITH THE FINAL MOVIE IN THE HOBBIT TRILOGY! Thank you everyone for watching along with us, it's been an amazing journey! ❤ We made some adjustments to our upcoming movie reactions. Check out the video we uploaded today for the details! ruclips.net/video/vXdjni3ckxc/видео.html
Fili and Kili were Thorin's nephews (not cousins). They were heirs to the throne, that's why pale orc said "end of your bloodline" when he stabbed Kili.
We saw the naming of Bilbo’s sword Sting when he fought the spiders in the last movie. We saw the acorn Bilbo picked up to grow the tree over his house in Bagend and the gifting of the Mithril shirt from Thorin to Bilbo. Awesome tie ins to Bilbo in the Lord of the Rings when he gifts them all to Frodo.
Thranduil is wood elf king...the current High elf King IS ELROND but he refused to use that title after his predecessor died. Galadriel is also a High elf but she have her own independent kingdom with her husband.
And Thorin Oakenshield had his final redemption. According to the book, he was buried like you saw at the end, with the Arkenstone over the chest, and with his legendary sword Orcrist, the goblin-cleaver. In his farewell... I always cry. A true KING. PD: In the theatrical version, scenes like Thorin´s funeral, weren´t included in the footage. That was a real shame. We only saw these scenes in the extended version later.
The white gems that Thranduil wants back belonged to his wife, Legolas´ mother. I don´t know if I remember correctly but I believe he had the stones and wanted the dwarfs to make juwelry, there was a disputed about payment, I think Thorins grandfather got to greedy. That is the only reason that Thranduil wants them back, to have something that remembers him of his wife, not realising that part of his wife lives on in his son and is more important than some jewels. And in a way everything he does can be traced back to the loss of his wife and his grief.
The fight in Dul Goldur between Galadriel, Elrond, and Saruman, versus Sauron and the Nazgul is awesome. Galadriel is very powerful. Anyone who dares to fight Galadriel better be prepared to feel some pain
Galadriel in this movie is SO well portrayed by Blanchet ... so graceful and so powerful ....yet she is not without fear ...now go watch rings of power....SHEESH xd
The dwarf you kept hating on is the same dwarf who wrote in the book in the lord of the rings in the mines Gandalf picks up his book and reads it and his body was right there where he died writing it
Hate to break it to ya, but Dori was NOT the dwarf who wrote in the Book of Mazarbul in Moria. It was Ori. Or to be precise, of course many different dwarves wrote in that book, since it was a documentation of Balin's (and his followers') recolonization efforts in Moria. But the last entry, which is read aloud by Gandalf in the books and in the Fellowship movie, was written by Ori. Gimli recognizes his handwriting instantly, because he knew him to have a particularly nice and clear way of writing.
Legolas's footsteps are actaully depicted as being pretty feather like. In lotr trilogy when they walk through snow, he walks on top of it because hes practically weightless. When they're being consumed by the sea of skulls, he's stepping from skull to skull instead of pushing through them.
The gems Thranduil refers to belonged to his wife and are as far as I know the only reminder he has of her. Also, Fili and Kili were Thorins nephews, they did mention that earlier in the films. Did you guys pay any attention to the dialogue?
The mistake ppl make with the Desolation of Smaug is, it’s not supposed to be HIS movie 😂 It was only a couple of chapters in the book - there’s not much more that could be done w/a dragon. Primarily because dragons cause so much devastation… what are you really expecting? If the dwarves could really put up that much of a fight then how did Smaug end up in the mountain in the 1st place?
Legolas running on those falling rocks is when I gave up on this movie lol. The 2nd hobbit movie was my favorite despite the stupid add-ins like Tauriel (not a character from the book), because I think they did absolute justice to the scenes with Smaug. Lots of his lines were book accurate, followed by the 1st and then the 3rd last. Simply because I read the Hobbit book many times as a kid and the 3rd movie just kind of felt like mindless battle scenes in an attempt to pull a third movie out of it. Too much stuff added that wasn't in the book. The first 2 Hobbit movies were truer to the original book. Just my take.
I really liked the 2nd movie too. Personally the first dragged for me, but I also hadn’t been thrilled with that part of the book. Example: Bilbo/Gollum’s riddle battle felt so unnecessary but Tolkien expanded so much on it & fans really enjoy it so ofc they’d put it in the movie 😭 I prefer the battle scene in the 3rd movie I hated how Tolkien just knocked Bilbo out & skipped over it. The worms were admittedly too much haha but everything else I appreciated.
@@Taewills I see your point and respect your opinion. 3rd movie in my opinion just didn’t feel like Tolkien, but more like a Hollywood action Blockbuster. 2 hours of pure CGI battle scenes took away the immersion for me. Tolkien skipped over the battle of the five armies in the book because he’s a WW1 vet and was not particularly fond of war. His stories focus on the adventure and the characters more than the action, which is what makes them so special to me
@@monkeyman1350 ahhh yes, I see what you mean - it’s very PJ in his bag, less Tolkien. I get not glorifying war by giving us a play by play. I just remember complaining about it to my teacher that our copies had a huge chunk cut out & she said… “No, ( 😆), this is for children.” It wasn’t until much later on when I consumed everything I could get my hands on the PTSD Tolkien suffered.
Well, the Lord Of The Rings novels has a moment when on Caradras, Aragorn and Boromir are forging throw snow. Legolas runs on the snow past them, and he waves at them. That is told from Frodo's POV, by the way. That run across a falling bridge is right up there.
These movies had the unfortunate situation of being directly comparable to one of the greatest trilogies of all times, lord of the rings. If you don’t compare it to that, which is a completely unfair thing to do for any movie, these are great! Not masterpieces or genre redefining but great in their own right and compared to most movies these are bangers.
Nazgul and Spirit of Sauron vs Battle-mage Saruman, High-elf Paladin Elrond and Super Saiyan Galadriel will always be one of my favorite battle scenes. *YoU hAVe No PoWeR HeRe, sErVaNt oF mOrgoTh*
I was hopeful, young men, but it took me only about 10 minutes to tire of your bids to outtalk each other. I'm sure you'll all witty, smart guys, but worthless to those of us wanting enjoy a reasonable movie reaction. Good luck with others more patient than I am...
Tolkien wrote that the Battle of the Five Armies had a lasting impact on Middle Earth. So many orcs and their allies were killed that a lifetime later during the events of "The Lord of the Rings", the orcs and goblins of the north could not repopulate their numbers sufficient to take the Lonely Mountain, though there was still another fierce battle that claimed Dain and also Bard's grandson. Had they been at full strength, they would have easily swept aside the allies of the north, and come south to join the assault on Gondor, guaranteeing a victory. So, in a way, with the Ring and some of the later characters present, the Battle of the Five Armies was the first great battle of the War of the Ring, making possible the much-later victory at Pelennor Fields in front of the White City.
Time for a deep cut. During the War of the Ring Sauron did not one the armies of the north reinforcing Gondor so he sent Orcs and Easterlings to attack Murkwood, Erebor and Dale all at once. The men of Dale under the command of King Brand Bard's grandson were pushed out of Dale to the gates of Erebor. There King Brand was killed felled by orcs and the forces of Sauron attempted to take his body to defile it as was their way. They found this no easy task however as standing over Brands body was Dain Ironfoot King under the Mountain who was by this time 252 years old elderly for dwarves. Gandalf even admitted he was surprised the old dwarf could still lift his hammer much less swing it. But Dain stood there with his hammer defending his friends body until at last he to was slain. But this was not in vain as the Ring was destroyed and Sauron defeated. Dain's son Thorin Stonehelm becomes King under the Mountain. It was said though it wasn't quiet clear when in the timeline either Thorin Stonehelm's son or one of his grandchildren would be named Durin the Seventh or Durin the Last and fulfill the Dwarves greatest prophecy. With their forefather reincarnated he lead the Dwarves to retake Kazad'dum and the Dwarves with friendship with both men and the remaining elves (inspired by a certain elf and dwarf) who had not gone West yet lived out one last golden age until they faded from Middle Earth. (Also Thranduil telling Legolas to go find Aragorn makes no sense, at this point in time Aragorn is 10 being raised in Rivendell.)
If you remember in the lord of the rings Balin is dead , Ori was in moria with Balin and Oin and he dead because a arrow (he has the book how Gandalf take) and Oin was eate by the kraken of Moria , all the others survive to the war of the ring.
Great post-discussion. I'm glad you guys enjoyed the third entry in this trilogy more than the second. Y'all should post/watch Rings of Power anyway, I promise Season 2 is -slightly- better. 😆
Y'all are great company for this watchalong; I'm gonna go into serious withdrawals now that this is over, sniff sniff, lol. I think I just got really spoilt watching LOTR when it first came out... the theatrical cuts were absolutely perfect for what they were. I wouldn't take away or want to add a minute of what I saw while in a theatre. And then the extended cuts come out and they were absolutely perfect for what they were, to be watched in the comfort of one's own home, scenes could be longer and breathe and definitely bring on the additional moments that just add to the world-building (but weren't necessarily pertinent in the theatre). Heck you could add another hour and I would barely blink. I mean, in the dictionary the word Peter Jackson was synonymous with extended-cut. Then The Hobbit comes out... I remember sitting in the theatre feeling like it was just dragging on, feeling like so much could have been omitted (like, for every two "get out of my pantry", you could have had it be said just once). The fact that the theatrical cut played out like an extended cut was too much. The home (extended) version is nice to sit back to and watch, but man... sometimes I really wish there was an 'actual' theatrical (short) version of the first two parts. And yeah, I know there is some person's version out there... Please try out Sky Captain And The World Of Tomorrow or even Valerian for some cheesy fun filmmaking.
fantastic - glad you enjoyed this one. Its worth noting that they pretty much had no written material to go off for this movie and likely a bunch of the 2nd one too (not sure). But as a film its such a hoot and i enjoy this trilogy as much as the LOTR original trilogy. However i haven't seen this extended edition where Alfred ends up in the mouth of the beast... and the dwarves on that vehicle and Killi sharpening his sword on the wheel - so much extra cool stuff! Only thing i thought was missing was that oliphaunt moment in the return of the king... i expected those worms to rock up and it be hell on earth at one point! Maybe even the dwarves releasing a Balrog even to take it on because they're all so outmatched... who knows - might have been cool. But yeah overall good fun - lots of great characters. Alot of my age group (I'm 48) find this trilogy garbage and hate it... so its good to see a younger generation enjoying it and getting alot of value from it :) ant
There weren’t any oliphaunts in The Hobbit. They were with men from the east who didn’t invade until LOTR. Wouldn’t have made sense to have them in this trilogy. This is also in a different location so Gondor/Rohan still had their realms on lock. (I’m 43 - I loved these movies)
Isn’t he in his late twenties? If I remember correctly, in Two Towers he tells Eowyn he is 87. The Hobbit takes place roughly sixty years prior to the Lord of the Rings. Or am I mistaken? It’s been a while.
@@montecristo1845 the ring lies quietly in the Shire in Bilbo’s keeping for sixty years, Bilbo is 50 in The Hobbit and turns 111 at the party. After he leaves the Shire, Frodo lives comfortably at Bag End for seventeen years before Gandalf returns and tells him what’s what. That’s 77 years. If Aragorn is 87 in LotR, he is ten years old when Thranduil delivers that ridiculous line.
Yeah, that's one of the things that doesn't make a ton of sense. Aragorn would still hanging out at Rivendell with ol papa Elrond and not many know he's alive. I doubt Elrond would be willing to blab about him even to Thranduil.
@@Dumbodwarf I wonder if it’s because Peter Jackson decided to ignore that 17 year gap and pretend Strider would be 27, otherwise they’d have to age Frodo. Bad enough Frodo is supposed to be 33 at the party and 50 when he leaves the Shire (same age as Bilbo was when he began his adventure), they chose instead to use hobbits about 20 in appearance. So many reactors comment on how unfair it was to put this quest onto “kids” when the hobbits are supposed to be early middle-aged. Thranduil is related to Galadriel, Celeborn and Elrond through the old royal lines so I can accept them sharing counsel with him.
@@Mistmantle88 Maybe, my only thought was that it was just like to reference him and people would be like "Hell yeah, I remember that guy!" Even though Legolas would not even meet him for a long while.
The elf/dwarf interspecies romance is pure fanfiction and something Tolkien would have never written. It goes very strictly against the canon lore of how dwarves were created and how the elves view them because of it. They were a species created against the commandment of Eru (God), and were not created by Eru himself.
We saw the naming of Bilbo’s sword Sting when he fought the spiders in the last movie. We saw the acorn Bilbo picked up to grow the tree over his house in Bagend and the gifting of the Mithril shirt from Thorin to Bilbo. Awesome tie ins to Bilbo in the Lord of the Rings when he gifts them all to Frodo.

Thank you everyone for watching along with us, it's been an amazing journey! ❤
We made some adjustments to our upcoming movie reactions.

When Galadriel commands you to go back to the void from whence you came, you go back to the void from whence you came.
😂😂😂
And when she tells you to go to bed, you go to bed!
Remember guys, Galadriel is the most powerful non-Maiar in middle earth. She kicks quite a lot of az
Fili and Kili were Thorin's nephews (not cousins). They were heirs to the throne, that's why pale orc said "end of your bloodline" when he stabbed Kili.
He stabbed Fili, not Kili.
@@renalareveuse2155 yup my bad, Kili was stabbed by the uglier orc lol
Yo, Legolas is literally an instant cheat guide. This man knows all the tricks and skills in every movie 😆

Galadriel used the phial to banish Sauron, it was the same phial that she gave to Frodo in The Fellowship and used against Shelob in ROTK
She also used the power of her ring, Nenya. (Ring of Water, I believe). Thats what puts her into that "form" we saw in both Fellowship and here.
@@cmdrbrantford888 "Nenya" Business
Frodo is 33 when Bilbo is 111, he won’t be born for 28 years at this point.
There’s a fan edit called The Cardinal Cut.
The white gems that Thranduil wants back belonged to his wife, Legolas´ mother.

His entire bloodline ended in this battle.
Nice seeing most of the screens filled up again. Great to see yall back 🫶🏼😁
Jeeze boys army 1 men , 2 elves, 3 dwarves, 4 orcs , 5 beast
I love how the min orcs and goblins show up, the Dwarfs stop fighting the elves.
its funny you bring up endgame lol. When one of Thanos' minions is in this movie. Guardians of the Galaxy "Ronin the Destroyer" is also the Elf King
I already watched this on Patreon a while ago so this is just to help the algorithm. Hope everyone has a nice day :)

Saruman was evil in the beginning he wanted control when he couldn’t made a ring for himself, he allied with Sauron in secret.
the extended version of this movie is the only one worth watching (gory,bloody) love u guys from chile
Waited and waited and waited. Finally here 🎉🎉🎉
I’m here ❤️
Why wasn’t I notified about this? Usually I get a notification.
Probably because we're currently dead in the algorithm. RUclips isn't ready for the raggedy resurrection 😈
@@RaggedyPack we will get there, we can do this!
I like to think that Alfrid was Grima Wormtongue's father.
I read somewhere that Bombur is the sexiest member of Thorin's party by Middle-Earth dwarven standards. I really hope that this is canon!
Nobody brings the RV to the party like the Dwarves do when you need something RAM Tough.... [product placement]

React to the film: ALIEN: ROMULUS (2024), the best movie in the franchise in years! You will love it.
There have been several fan recuts of the Hobbit trilogy into one movie. If you plan on watching any, I recommend the Maple Films edit.
The actor who plays thorin also played in captain America the first avenger as the assassin
Funny reaction(s). I also saw only the first two Hobbit movies in the theatre and at all lol.

@@Mistmantle88 Maybe, my only thought was that it was just like to reference him and people would be like "Hell yeah, I remember that guy!" Even though Legolas would not even meet him for a long while.
Hey friends!!!!
The elf/dwarf interspecies romance is pure fanfiction and something Tolkien would have never written.
It goes very strictly against the canon lore of how dwarves were created and how the elves view them because of it. They were a species created against the commandment of Eru (God), and were not created by Eru himself.
they were his nephews
Rings of Power next

I'm just here to help with the algorithm (as it was requested in discord) bc I really dislike this movie. But I love the channel and all of you guys.
Love it! Looking forward to 1121 episodes of One Piece reactions before the end of the year!
We saw the naming of Bilbo’s sword Sting when he fought the spiders in the last movie. We saw the acorn Bilbo picked up to grow the tree over his house in Bagend and the gifting of the Mithril shirt from Thorin to Bilbo. Awesome tie ins to Bilbo in the Lord of the Rings when he gifts them all to Frodo.
