Talkie Tuesday: The Battle of the Five Armies

 

"In a hole in the ground there lived a Hobbit ..."

 
Hello everyone!
 
And welcome to the conclusion of the epic prequel trilogy Peter Jackson served us with in true George Lucas style.
 
I mean, usually you'd film the first movies first, chronologically, then continue on with the story to the end that the author's written, right?
 
Well, like I said, USUALLY.
 
But both Lucas and Jackson ended up filming the conclusions FIRST, before circling back to the beginnings (I'm not looking at the Sequels in any way, shape or form at this time).
 
So without further ado and more chatter from me, let's check right back in, because last time we left a royally pissed-off dragon heading straight for some unsuspecting, vulnerable and squishy humans to deal with them.
 
Smaug may suck at interior decorating, but he sure does know how to deliver death and destruction in The Battle of the Five Armies.
