Oooooooh, Oak you really need to chill…your comments about Gandalf are fighting words…the long game is very important so Gandalf was. exactly where he needed to be! Just as the answer said! You need a time out!

Alright I'm gonna say 2 things about the eagles and then I'm not gonna hear another word about them from you guys! (Kidding, sorta). Lol The eagles are not invulnerable. It's stated in the Hobbit (book) that their friendship with Gandalf started after the head eagle was wounded by a simple hunter's arrow and Gandalf had to heal it. They are also not built for carrying people. Tolkien understood that feather stems and even some bones in birds are hollow. In the Fellowship (book) when Gwaihir, the eagle, rescued Gandalf from Saruman, Gandalf asked him "how far can you carry me?" Gwaihir responded "A good ways, but not to the ends of the earth. I can probably get you to Rohan where you can find a good horse." Stop asking them to handle dragons and supernatural devil rings. Lol I could draw more reasons from other texts like the Silmarillion, but honestly we don't have time to explain all that. I would appreciate whichever one of you reads this if you can disseminate this info to the rest of the guys. 😂

I love these movies! I think my only disappointment with them is a bit the inconsistency in the dwarves' height. Sometimes they look super short (like waist height compared to humans), and sometimes they are almost the same height as human teenagers or so, chest height. It's not really that important honestly, but it bugs me a bit when I watch because I focus on it. The fight scenes are great! I love Tauriel and Kili kinda falling in love. But like Oak said, they only had one or two conversations, 3 minutes tops x)

Most of the scenic is out in nature. They travelled around New Zealand. Sometimes they changed the sky since the weather would change since they were on a strict time schedule. And yes! It was real fish... LOL The two actors who had to be in the barrell for this part, almost gagged... And, Oak you know nothing! :-) I love the making of both these and LOTR movies the best. You remember the white horse Arwen rode when she was saving Frodo. That was a stuntdouble who rode the horse. And she fell so in love with horse that Viggo bought it for her. Also, everything, and i mean EVERYTHING had to be proven by Peter J when they made the movies. Every weapon, every costumes, everything! My favourite stories and crew. But not my favourite movie :-) I am looking forward to watch you react to the last of them. And I am really looking forward to watching Pirates and Hunger Games with you. And again: Thank you! It has been some amazing weeks, and more to come :-)

This was so much fun!! I haven't watched The Hobbit Trilogy in a couple of years, so watching The Desolation of Smaug was a treat, I like it better now than when it released to be honest, probably because back then I was pretty mad that one book had been split in three movies and there were some things that were changed from the book. I'm very, very fond of The Hobbit, as crazy as it sounds, I like it better than LOTR, but that's just becuase it gave me great comfort at a time I needed it a lot, so it's just I'm very sentimentally attached to it. The way y'all dislike my man Thranduil! He is one of my favorite characters both in the movie and the book, and probably one of my favorite Elves all around. Thranduil is just so interesting, also visually in the movies, he is by far, the most stunning Elf. My other favorite characters, bar Gandalf bcs he is my no.1, are Bilbo and Bard. Thorin is great, and Richard Armitage played him fantastically, the way he plays the Dwarven greed is great. Also fun fact!! Benedict Cumberbatch didn't just voice the dragon, its movements and facial expressions are modelled after him. He really acted his scenes, which is just so funny to watch. The dynamic between Smaug and Bilbo is fantastic because it's Benedict and Martin, Sherlock Holmes and John Watson. Also, OAK!!!! I GOT SO EXCITED WHEN YOU CAUGHT IT!! WHEN YOU CAUGHT THAT THE LAST LIGHT IS THE MOON!!! I got so excited LMAO. I whispered "YES!!" and fistbumped the air LMAO. The thing about Gandalf is that he is always one step ahead and following like eight different leads. He's always doing something else, but always comes when he is needed the most. Can't wait for the last film, it has a scene with Thranduil that I just LOVE even if it never happened in the book. Also if some elven fights look just way unrealistic: don't worry, they are physically possible for elves, their bodies allow it.

Love the reaction as always lads, also wondering why you guys aren't watching the extended for these - theres some cool scenes in there for sure especially the final movie deffo worth watching👌🏾 also is it just me or does Azog have the same physique as Oak 😂😂😂

Lock_Down

the river fight scene in 60FPS in theatres was like mind blowing literally.

Great stuff here! Good call on Gandolf! Lol yes, Oak got that one! 🤜🤛 Very much looking forward to the 3rd.

Badd Medicine

To be honest, it's what's given to us on HBO max. And we rented the 2nd one on Prime. I think your right, Azog might have the same 🤣🤣🤣

Chapter Eight

You don't really get the history of Thranduil in this, but he really makes a lot more sense if you know it. He was from the elvish kingdom of Doriath. The king (not Thranduil) came into possession of these magical jewels and commissioned the dwarves to set them in a necklace for him. The dwarves did it, but then instead of giving the necklace to the king when they were done they demanded he let them keep the necklace as payment for having created it. Obviously he refused and wanted the necklace in exchange for the money they'd agreed on to begin with. The dwarves then murdered the king, and the elves justifiably killed them for assassinating their king. Then the dwarves sent an entire army and killed a lot of elves. So that's a pretty great reason for Thranduil to, uh... intensely dislike and mistrust dwarves and find them to be irredeemably greedy. After all that, they had begun rebuilding the kingdom and another group of elves (the Noldor) demanded that the new king in Thranduil's kingdom give them the magical jewels. He refused, so the Noldor attacked and murdered most of the people still left in the kingdom. You can start to see why Thranduil is so mistrusting and focused on protecting his borders and his people. Thranduil and his father wandered for a while after their kingdom was destroyed. They eventually met up with some Silvan elves (the wood elves, which Tauriel is) and the Silvan elves made Thranduil's father their king. Then during the first war against Sauron (the one shown in the prologue to LOTR where the ring gets cut off Sauron's finger), despite the fact that the Noldor had committed the biggest taboo and crime amongst elves by murdering other elves in their old kingdom, Thranduil's father looked out for the greater good and joined an alliance with them to join the fight against Sauron. Basically some stuff went down and Thranduil's father and two-thirds of his army died, and Thranduil blamed the Noldor king for not coming to their aid. So here again he felt like he was betrayed, and moreover he had lost two-thirds of his army so he felt even more like he needed to protect what was left of his people. Also worth noting that (1) Galadriel and Elrond are both Noldor, so Thranduil would basically rather have a root canal than deal with them given the history of what the Noldor had done to his people, and (2) Galadriel and Elrond both have rings of power that they use to shield their lands, whereas Thranduil does not have a ring of power and has to protect his people through his own power by itself, military strength, and good strategic decisions. So with all of that it makes a lot of sense why he's an isolationist and why he wasn't willing to throw his own people at a dragon--both because his general position was to keep his own people safe above others, and because he hated dwarves and basically thought it served them right since they'd attracted the dragon with their greed (just like they murdered his king and his people for greed).

I am enjoying watching these along side the movies. Even if you guys don't do reactions for them, you might want to check out some of the lore collections on Youtube. They are very enlightening. The amount of background for the entire world Tolkien created is impressive. Side note for this movie. The guy with the eye patch and flips it down, who is a part of the alert process for when Bard goes home, that is Stephen Colbert from the Late Show.
