1. What is the so-called Battle of the Five Armies?
Before watching the movie, I secretly figured out that there should be humans, elves, dwarves and half-orcs (bad guys), but there is still some suspense about the sacred Fifth Army. Halfway through the movie, it was discovered that the half-orcs actually had two teams. If the two teams were counted as one army, it seemed that they could barely be said to be the fifth army. It wasn't until the eagles appeared that I suddenly realized that the "Condor" also participated in this war as an independent party. It is worth mentioning that the condor seems to be a race alongside humans, elves, dwarves, etc. Their ruler, the Eagle King, is a high-level existence belonging to the "Maiya" (secondary god). Many people complained in the Demon Realm, why didn't the eagle directly grab the Demon Realm and threw it into the Doomsday Volcano to destroy it directly. Like many other races, as an independent race, the Eagle race also has its own position. They are not subordinate to wizards or as any other people. In the struggle of the devil world, they chose neutrality for the benefit of their race. Similarly, the treebeards in the demon world initially chose the neutral position of the two not helping each other, until they discovered that Saruman's deforestation caused huge casualties of their own race (to protect the environment, everyone is responsible), they rose to resist. . It is also said that the Lord of the Rings is actually mapping World War II, and the Eagles are mapping the ever-neutral country Switzerland. Of course, the author seems to have always denied that he used the Lord of the Rings to write World War II.
2. The nine shadow kings (shadow) that appeared when the Elf Queen rescued Gandalf
This was actually mentioned in the Demon Realm. When the Demon Realm first cast it, nine rings were given to humans, six were given to the dwarves, and the three were given to the elves, and the Supreme Devil could control the rings. As human beings who are more susceptible to fall into the enchantment of the ring, the nine human kings eventually become slaves to the devil world and obey the demon king Sauron who possesses the supreme lord of the ring. Their appearance in the Hobbit is as a shadow, and they have amazing power around Sauron. In the devil world, they became ring spirits, looking for the supreme lord of the ring, and hunting down Frodo.
3. The wizards and elves appearing in the movie and the complicated relationship between them
. The names in the original work are very difficult to remember, and everyone has different names in different languages. For example, Gandalf’s name in Elvish is Mithrandir. Here, we might as well use a few commonly used nicknames to call them. The first is the three wizards who have appeared on the stage. Gandalf and Saruman must be familiar with the Lord of the Rings. Gandalf has always been a righteous wizard. He was a gray-robed wizard (lower mana) and was reborn in the Ring. Later became a white robe wizard. Saruman has always been a white robe, but he casts his opponent in the Lord of the Rings and becomes the main boss. There is also a little old man who always takes animals to pull carts and can communicate with all kinds of animals: Lada Gast. Then there are the main elves. Elves have different races, which are mainly divided into three categories: light elves, dark elves, and half-elves. Among them, light elves seem to be a relatively advanced race (not racial discrimination, it should refer to higher mana values). There are different sub-categories in each category. For example, the light elves include the Noldor and the Teleru tribe, and the dark elves include the Sindar elves and the silver elves. King Thranduil (the daddy of the elven prince) who appears in the movie with the glamorous eyeliner belongs to the dark elven family, and belongs to the genus Sindar, while the elven prince belongs to the genus Silvan (why father and son are of different genera? Possibly? It's a mixed race). Elf Queen Galadriel is a family of light elves, from the Noldor clan. Rivendell’s Elf King Elon (the daddy of Yawen in the Lord of the Rings with high hairline) and Yawen are both half-elves. Elves are said to be immortal (unless accidentally, such as death in battle or being devastated by dark forces). Finally finished writing this paragraph, thanks to google and Baidu
4 The end of the movie and the beginning of the Lord of the Rings
Although I haven't revisited the Lord of the Rings recently, the Hobbit ending and the beginning of the Lord of the Rings should overlap, and the lines are very similar (I don't know if they are the same). I was very excited and tears filled my eyes when I saw it, as if I had seen a long-lost old friend.
5 The elf prince exiled himself, and his father directed him to find someone to the north.
His real name was not given in the movie. Dad said that you should find his real name by yourself. I think this person is the human king Aragorn who is doing a ranger, and he is also one of the protagonists of the Lord of the Rings. It would be great if I could make an Aragonese prequel><
6 At the end of the movie, Bilbo returned to Hobbiton and
looked forward to the beautiful Hobbiton at the end of the movie. The director fulfilled my wish, haha! Finally appeared the beautiful Shire, green crops, short and squat houses, and the hobbit who loves eating and tobacco. At the same time, I remembered the theme music of Shire, as if returning to the years of the Lord of the Rings.
7 When Bilbo returned home, the house
was in a mess. He picked up two portraits (a man and a woman) from the ground and hung them back on the wall. Those two paintings should be portraits of important figures in the Bilbo family, but in fact they should be the portraits of the director and his wife. In the Lord of the Rings, the same portraits are hung in the same place in Bilbo's house. The director specially painted himself a shot, which can be imagined. Gee.
The movie should be tense when it should be nervous, funny when it should be funny, and sensational when it should be sensational, especially the part of Bilbo before the death of the Dwarf King. He said: Go back home and plant trees. Watch them growing. The beauty of language description The peaceful scene, the contrast between the dying Elf King and the sad Bilbo in the picture, especially poked my tears.
In short, the whole movie is magnificent without losing details, majestic and tender. It's so enjoyable!
