Magneto was jealous of Peanut and Brother Horseface's deadly love, so he destroyed time and space and transported everyone to the distant Middle-earth world of the third era. Peanuts and horse-faced brothers from different parts of the world have blue silk constantly. Brother Ma Lian even launched an army of orcs, hoping to find his lover.
Magneto saw that something was wrong, so he used various tricks to encourage Peanut to embark on a journey to kill his lover, Mamian. And Magneto himself killed Sherlock's nest. Fortunately, thanks to Galadriel's favor, Peanut finally came to Sherlock, and Magneto was no match for Sherlock's great mana and was imprisoned by him. However, Sherlock's clone did not recognize Peanut.
A tragedy where a lover turns into an enemy is unavoidable. How will this love through time and space end? Only "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies" can answer us.
Closer to home.
As a book and movie fanatic who is crazy about Middle-earth, these two identities are always entangled in the author's mind. The author has scolded the Lord of the Rings trilogy for tampering with the original work before, but I still review this masterpiece every year. In the following text, the author only talks about movies, not novels. New Zealand, the great tourist country, was indeed made for Middle-earth. The fascinating Middle-earth of the mysterious legend in Tolkien's book was perfectly restored by a great director named Peter Jackson.
The Adventures of the Hobbit is a fairy tale, but after Tolkien completed the magnificent Lord of the Rings, he turned around to modify the Hobbit so that the two were unified in story and style. Today, when Peter Jackson was creating The Hobbit movie, in order to unify the style of the two series of movies, he added the appendix of the Lord of the Rings book and the stories in the poems. In this prequel work, he wrote a lot of caring magic. Quit the plot of the plot. Presumably, Peter wanted to make six movies into a Middle-earth six-part series.
In the author's opinion, the Hobbit movie is all about feelings, middle-earth feelings, and fantasy feelings. Therefore, the author suggests that before watching the Hobbit series, it is best to watch the Lord of the Rings trilogy first, in order to understand the various Easter eggs about the Lord of the Rings movies in The Hobbit.
This Hobbit 2 completely exceeded my expectations. Just as The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers was to The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, The Hobbit 2 is far better than the first. Maybe new people think the rhythm of The Hobbit 1 is a little slow. The rhythm of this film can be described as urgent and breathless, so that the whole movie looks less epic and more like a costume action movie . Even if the director deliberately arranges some conversational plots, he always does not talk for a while, and immediately enters the action scene without a second.
Probably Bilbo Baggins' conversation with Smaug at the end is the longest conversation in the film. When Smaug said a little teasingly don't be shy (don't be shy), I almost burst out laughing. This is love! Although Sherlock didn't recognize Peanuts, the two of them still had the same love.
There are about two climaxes of the film. The first is the escape of the dwarves from the elf kingdom. This section is very witty and humorous, and it is the most concentrated place in the film. The second climax is from Peanut to Smaug, until Smaug flew away at the end, the dwarves fought the dragon, which was quite exciting. However, I would like to rant a little bit about the ending of the movie. It really came to an abrupt end, and I stifled my appetite. The orc army has just set off, and the dragon flies to River Valley Town with hatred. The battle of the five armies is about to start, but the movie ends here. It's such a pain to end before the highest climax, maybe the director wants to play it from beginning to end in the next movie.
The film also has many details that the author thinks are important and wonderful, and I want to tell you about it.
Friends who have seen the Lord of the Rings may know that the good friend of the elf prince Legolas is the dwarf Gimli, and Gimli's father is Groin. In this film, after the dwarves were arrested by the Elf Prince in the Black Forest, Legolas found a small book from Groin with a picture of Groin's wife on it. When Legolas pointed to Gimli's portrait and asked, the author suddenly thought that the marriage between the two started from here.
There is also an important detail in Bilber Baggins. Whenever a crisis occurs, he always reaches into his pocket to touch the Lord of the Rings, and it can be clearly seen that the Lord of the Rings gives him a lot of confidence and courage. This familiar action also appeared in The Lord of the Rings. Gandalf first appeared suspicious of Baggins, and I thought that perhaps Gandalf had discovered Bilber's secret at this time.
Speaking of Gandalf, we must tell the plot of him going to the meeting alone, going to the Dragon Pool alone, and fighting against Sauron. The description of the magical confrontation in the book is very exciting, but it is a headache to present it in images without distorting the original work. Because of the poor performance of The Lord of the Rings, many fans who have not seen the original work really think that Gandalf is just a charlatan and a liar. In this film, the magical confrontation between Gandalf and Sauron is fiercely displayed, twists and turns, and finally Gandalf is captured by Sauron. Sauron also turned into a demon eye. The process of incarnation was completely presented. It turned out that the pupil of the magic eye was the figure of Sauron himself. In fact, the motion capture and dubbing of Sauron and Smaug were done by Benedict Cumberbatch, who played Sherlock. His deep and magnetic voice was quite outstanding.
Finally, a detail about the dwarven king Thorin Oakenshield. When the group came to Hegu Town and was arrested by the town guards, Sorin's performance was obvious to all. Like all the emperors who had not reached the throne, he promised the people the sea. Bud is a descendant of the former Riverdale leader, and his doubts about Thorin are quite reasonable. Thorin's grandfather lost his mind because of the great wealth and was finally defeated by Smaug, and even the elf foreign Thranduil was crazy because of the gems. Sorin's performance here has the potential to go crazy. In the palace of the dwarves, he first let Bilber steal the gems by himself regardless of his life and death, and then stopped Bilber with his sword to ask him for the Arken gems. The author really thought that he was completely lost at this time. After all, wealth and power are too tempting. Otherwise, not so many people would fall prey to the Lord of the Rings.
Probably because the author's expectations are not high enough, after reading this work in one go, I am really satisfied. As a work that links the previous and the next, the end of the film is full of appetite, so that all the audiences who have seen this film have to look forward to the next film being released as soon as possible.
Middle-earth is really unforgettable.
