Film: The Hobbit : Battle of the five armies (December 2014)

[lowlight79]

Lowlight, once smaug has been defeated and the dwarves retake the mountain, men from lake town come for restitution for all the damage smaug caused their logic being, you woke the dragon. You can pay for the damage. The elves come to back the men up. But an army of dwarves upon hearing the mountain has been retaken come to help thorin/aka get a share even though they wouldn't help him in the first place but now he's the rightful king they will.

They're all camped out in front of the mountain which the dwarves have barred themselves into when a big Orc army come and they all band together against them.

Stuff stuff stuff death orcs defeated, bilbo goes home on a donkey with some gold for his trouble(and the ring)
The end.

So there gonna make a whole movie outta this? that seems more stretched then a girl in a 50 man gangbang, but thanks dime.

There will be some filler no doubt but handled well the preamble tense negotiations and eventually battle breaking out, could be excellent.

There is also the resolution of the sauron storyline.

[dimejinky99]

Which will steal the show i reckon.

[stip]

This movie will make or break the trilogy, since so much of the first two films (basically all of them) have been building to resolutions in the third film. It's not like there are stand alone climaxes for each film like there are with lotr

This may be the first time I seriously seek out a fan edit. I think there's going to be a cracker 1 or 2 film version of this whole series once all the extended cuts are out.

[McParadigm]

makes sense to me

[LoathedVermin72]

I wish the extended cuts of these movies were longer.

.............Maybe I would have if I were being sarcastic.

[dimejinky99]

In a rare twist of logic, more has actually turned out to mean better with PJ's adaptations thus far.

[stip]

that's usually true. Because he tells such long and languid stories the extended editions usually do a nice job fleshing out stuff his regular versions which, while overlong, feel that way in part because, absurdly, they aren't long enough.

[dimejinky99]

This comes back to the source. There's just so much there. Almost unbelievable that it's the creation of one man.

I absolutely agree with regards to LOTR, but the Hobbit series has too many flaws to be fixed by an extended edition. There are things that don't need no extendin'.

[dimejinky99]

FWIW the extra ten minutes in the extended cut of the first hobbit movie did actually add a lot.
