    Anyone else seen the third movie yet? I went to The Hobbit marathon so I got to see all three today. It was a fun time. I am curious about everyone's thoughts.

    Comes out Boxing Day here. Can't wait! I know a lot of people seem to really hate these movies, but as someone who never read the original book I am quite enjoying the journey so far. I love adventure movies.



    "... and so I close, realizing that perhaps the ending has not yet been written."

    I have seen the movie. It is awesome. I love the elf and dwarf army in this one.

    (SPOILER)Legolas hurricanranas an orc. Ridiculous.

    THEY BETTER.

    I am waiting to see this when I visit my siblings in Wyoming. We've all loved the Tolkien movies so since it's out just a week prior to us visiting, we're all going to make the trip to watch it. Then probably go drinking afterward, ya know, normal sibling stuff.

    The fact that this question even gets asked is just indicative of how badly the story has been ruined.
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    (SPOILER)Was Tauriel referenced at all when Kili died?

    I can't believe we're using spoilers for a book that's eighty years old.

    It was my understanding Tauriel was a movie exclusive.
    (SPOILER)Tauriel witnessed his death and all that nice dramatic stuff.

    Spoiler alert, Moses makes it out of Egypt (UNLESS THEY CHANGED IT LOL).

    I think his concern is less that we should care about this character's ultimate fate, and more that Tauriel was an unnecessary addition into an established story that lacks a twist ending.

    But then again, Azog is still alive at the beginning of the first movie, so it could be anything. It could even be a boat.

    (SPOILER)Actually, my concern is that Fili and Kili died protecting Thorin. That their deaths should have been epic defense of their kinsmen, with no tragic "star crossed lovers" implications or anything of the sort. I'm guessing that Kili's death was completely ruined by the presence of Tauriel. Changing the themes, characterization, and impact of his death into something completely unrelated.
