[QUOTE="Kaodi, post: 6498560, member: 1231"] I finally saw it after nearly a month. Not because I was avoiding it or anything but because I have to cajole my Sister into driving me into the city to see a movie. I liked it. I enjoyed it. But I do not think I was really satisfied by it. I do not know if we still need a spoiler tag but whatever... [sblock=Spoiler]I can live with them making additions to the movies, ever since we first met Tauriel I have not felt super purist or anything. But for the love of God, why does Legolas, a named LotR character who was not in the Hobbit (son of Thranduil is kinda noticeable), kill Bolg and not some combination of Tauriel and Kili? Why does Tauriel survive the movie, never to be heard from again? Why do [i]only[/i] Fili and Kili bite it, other than Thorin himself? More named dwarves should have died. I think it cheapened the source material in a serious way for all the rest to live. And on a completely different note, I am cool with Galadriel getting her badass moment but why does she look and sound so ghoulish doing it? Looked more like the illusion of what she would be like with the One Ring than of what she should be like with herself and one of the elven rings.[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
