I saw The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies some two weeks ago, and in contrast of my inactivity for the last 1.5 years, I'm actually proud that I managed to finish something during my school's Winter Break. Moving on...
As for the movie itself, I would say that it's okay-good quality-wise, but despite its quality, I liked it quite a lot and saying that I don't like it would make me a hypocrite. Although masses of people across the web find this movie particularly not amusing because Peter Jackson was just trying to exploit money, it's stretched out, etc. I think the fact that 3 full-length movies can be made out of a single children's book amused me. I agree that it's not the best movie, and I do agree that this is unmatchable to LotR, but it entertained me for 2 hours so that was good
The thing that I liked is how they made Bilbo more hero-like, which is a good take to make the movie more interesting, rather than doing what the book told us: (SPOILER ALERT) Bilbo bumped his head onto a rock, fell unconscious, knew nothing more, aaand... the war was over and Thorin died. That would've made the movie significantly shorter and much less exciting. I kind of liked how the filler stories are seamed quite fine and there was a bit of suspense when Azog was floating around. Also, elves never fail to amuse me. just look at Legolas, climbing up the falling bricks to save himself from falling.
What I don't like is how they put the climax for the second movie in the beginning. I hated that. I felt like it's all full of tension and climax-y right at the start, and the tension just rolled off a cliff for the next two hours. Not even the battle scene can bring the tension up again. That decision to make a climax right at the beginning was a crime and for the rest of the movie, there was no great thrill anymore.
Nevertheless, I was entertained to the point where I felt that I had to draw something, which is nice.
Actually these two fragments are a half of a page, but I don't think I have enough dedication to draw a full page as I'm stuck on the third box with Bilbo on it and nothing for the background... Help me.
