THE HOBBIT: THE BATTLE OF THE FIVE ARMIES PART 1/2 (EXTENDED) - MOVIE REACTION - FIRST TIME WATCHING 

"Leave Sauron to me!" were some of the last lines spoken by Christopher Lee on screen. He died the year after this movie was released.

Addie, the reason those gems mean so much to Thranduil is because they were meant to be a gift for his wife and he asked the dwarves to create a necklace out of them, but she died before it was complete and Thror refused to give them back to Thranduil due to his dragon sickness.

When Thorin broke free of the dragon sickness and asked they dwarves if they would follow him on last time, I nearly cried. Thorin was able to do what his grandfather Thror could not.

The acorn grew into a great tree, it’s the the tree that Bilbo’s party takes place under in Lord of the Rings.

A callback I only just noticed rewatching the other day (for the 1st time since the theater release). When King Thranduil is suggesting to Bard that he should just sell the Arkenstone, he says Ecthelion of Gondor would buy it. Ecthelion was the contemporary Steward at the time … father of Denethor and grandfather of Boromir and Faramir.

Thing about the three Elven Rings: they're kind of the opposite of the One Ring - the Elven Rings are basically invisible unless the bearer wishes to reveal them. In _The Fellowship of the Ring,_ Galadriel revealed to Frodo that she possesses Nenya, the Ring of Adamant (also called the Ring of Water), which you clearly see here, as well. Remember Gandalf's confrontation with the Balrog earlier in _Fellowship_ - "I am the Servant of the Secret Fire, wielder of the Flame of Anor!"

Galadriel is likely the most powerful Elf in Middle-Earth at this point. She is older than both the Sun and the Moon, and was one of the very few still living to have seen the Light of the Two Trees of Valinor before Melkor killed them. The Elves of the First Age were mighty in the ways of natural magic and spirit magic, especially those of the line of Finwe. She is also brother to Finrod Felagund, who founded the great hidden kingdom of Nargothrond, and grandmother of Arwen (whose mother Celebrian is Galadriel's daughter). The reason she's so tempted by the power of the Ring and such is because that is why she left Valinor; not to chase after the Silmarils with Feanor and the other Noldorin elves, but to build her own realm in the world and make things the way she wanted them to be. The lure of power is something she's always had to be wary of because of her ambition, and it's not been helped by her taking custody of one of the Three rings given to the Elves: Nenya, the ring of water, which was how she preserved and protected Lothlorien for so long.

The power of Galadriel is not to be trifled with nor underestimated. I love the character, her lore. Cate Blanchett did such an amazing job portraying the character. I am blessed to have live during the time of The Lord of Rings trilogy.

The way I experience these films again for the first time is to watch others, like yourself, experience it for the first time.

Smaug in The Desolation of Smaug: "I will not part with a single coin" Thorin in The Battle of the Five Armies: "I will not part with a single coin"

Galadriel is more powerful than most realise... the way she absolutely deletes that orc with so little effort, it's epic

My god, when Thorin says "Throw him from the RAMPART!!" and that intensely uneasy music kicks it... it's amazing

In the book Fellowship of the Ring, Bard's grandson is mentioned. Frodo is talking to Gloin in Rivendell and Gloin mentions that Brand son of Bain son of Bard is king in Dale.

18:22 ... the mother of all surprises! The "no signal" has to be the most creative censoring I've ever seen! Loved it so much!!

The reason why thranduil wants the gems so bad. They where for his wife, she passed before she got to wear them. She passed protecting legolas.

Galadriel going ape is the best part of this trilogy. Remember, she was alive at the forming of Middle Earth, and is basically a demigod. That's why her giving Gimli 3 strands of hair is so significant. She denied other, "better" elves the same request.

The main battle looks like a video game... again, I Know not Jackson's? I think wanted two very different things and sometimes it just didn't work. Love I know everyone loves leglas but that just strikes me of fanfiction because most of the other dwarves didn't stand out, especially in combat. But Freeman and Ian do such a good job they really saved the movie

The one really good part of the Hobbit trilogy is that it shows the armies of the Elves and Dwarves in action, along with some of hte nastier orcish warbeasts. The eartheaters, for example, are mentioned in the books as Wereworms, which are never described until we see them in the movie.

"Keep the stone, sell it." Thranduil 😂

Fun fact: Gloin’s helmet is the one that Gimli wears throughout the LoTR movies

Addie, if you're wondering what to do, maybe think about reading the books. They are excellent. I've read them multiple times, as well as listening to the audio books several times as well.

There is plenty more Tolkien in his writings. Not just The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings, but also The Book of Lost Tales, The Silmarillion, and others as well.

Elrond and Saruman vs The Nine was so badass.

Did you happen to catch the smile on Bard's face when Bilbo admitted to stealing the keys from under the noses of Thranduil guards (it was right after Bilbo apologized)? It looked like Bilbo earned Bard's respect for being clever enough to commit such a crime against the elf King.

Addie your killing me with this bits and pieces lol

If I recall correctly the dragon's body poisoned that area of the lake, and so the people had to rebuild elsewhere. It was the dragon sickness that killed the mayor, not having the dragon fall on him.

Bard's daughters are actually Bifurs real life kids.

Look at your reactions, your surprise, the emotions. Wow girl, I subs yesterday, saw a lot pf your reaction, tomorrow patreon. U totally put a spell on me.

I really enjoy your reaction videos . keep doing it

I found your channel because of LOTR and I love your reaction! My favorite part about the hobbit movies is in this one we finally get to see just how powerful Galadriel is. Makers of rings of power should have taken notes. I thought it was awesome when you called her majestic cause that’s absolutely what she’s supposed to be!

Great reaction Addie. Love the shirt. Hope you live stream soon.

Hope you are having an great and awesome day Addie ❤

Hi, Addie, my Cutenoise Queen. Just wanted to draw your attention to two more Britcom legends: the Mayor of Laketown (Stephen Fry) and Dain of the Iron Hills (Billy Connolly), with two very different styles. Connolly was an internationally famous Glaswegian stand-up who also enjoyed some success as a character actor on American TV. Fry's forte was more in sketch satire, especially with his longtime partner Hugh Laurie, of Dr House fame. Fry and Connolly are regarded as British national treasures, and rightly so.

“It is worth all the blood we can spend.” He means the lives of their kin. All those soldiers who’re fighting & dying just for the riches of that mountain. The king only thinks of himself with all that wealth compared to his followers thinking of reclaiming their homeland.

Least to most essential extended cuts for these Middle-Earth movies, IMO: 6. "The Fellowship of the Ring" (doesn't genuinely add anything that further informs plot and/or character points in subsequent movies) 5. "An Unexpected Journey" (only ahead of "Fellowship" because it adds the subplot regarding the current status of the Dwarven and Elven rings, and also first alludes to Kíli's interest in female Elves) 4. "The Desolation of Smaug" 3. "The Battle of the Five Armies" 2. "The Two Towers" 1. "The Return of the King"

17:35 "just sodding off" Dain Ironfoot is played by Billy Connolly, a Scottish comedian. In the UK they say "Sod off" instead of "Fuck Off". Sod is short for sodomy. So they snuck in a curse but it went over the heads of the American audience.

Love your shirt, Addie! 😉

The part where the dragon falls on the mayor was awesome!

The Dwarves are a race of smiths and warriors. It's no surprise that they spent centuries refining how to wage war, especially against the Elves and Orcs. Most Elves had essentially hit their height of power long before the movies, with the First Age being their zenith. The Dwarves, Orcs and Men had spent the Second and Third Ages rising in power, which is why the Elves themselves, having been exhausted by the wars against Morgoth and Sauron, chose to leave Middle-Earth for the Undying Lands.

We, as a family, watch all six extended editions - LOTR and The Hobbit - annually each December. I miss the days of counting down to seeing them in the theaters as they were released. Imagine what those cliffhanger endings were like when you knew the next one was a year away.

waiting for this👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

It's cool that you've decided to read The Trilogy and The Hobbit. When you read The Hobbit, keep in mind that the Jackson films are a combination of what you'll read in The Hobbit, and The Appendices that Tolkien included at the end of The Return of the King. Personally, I'm happy he included this material as it better sets the stage for the reemergence of Sauron in Lord of the Rings. But it does add a lot more to The Hobbit, which might make you wonder what's going on as you read it.

If you think Smaug is big, you should see Ancalagon. :P

0:23 Addie still gets to read The Hobbit, and then maybe TLOTR trilogy... and then (fingers crossed) we can hope the new TV show is going to be fun. I assume Addie has heard of it?

Did you catch that when Galadriel banished Sauron, she was holding the Light of Earendil, the light she later gave to Frodo? Elrond is cool. Galadriel is his mother-in-law. As far as the battle goes, it was foolish for the elves to jump over the dwarf phalanx to fight the orcs. The battle scenes in this movie are ridiculous.

Galadriel went hella bad ass!

For more Inklings, I recommend the Chronicles of Narnia. After that, Harry Potter. Or if you want to take a break from Fantasy, there is always Star Wars.

People can say what they want, this is an amazing movie with amazing scenes and lore

Addie, if you’re partial to some of the actors in the Hobbit movies, you can find them in various places: Dwalin and Bard’s oldest son appear in Starz’ “Outlander” series (definitely worth a watch in any case) Kili’s actor is the main character in the “Poldark” series, which is another good bit of historical fiction Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman pair up in the modern Sherlock series

Hey thanks for your reaction ! About the Orc Who ask to Gandalf where is the "ring" in fact is not Galadriel ring but Gandalf ring the "ring" (it's complicated to explain but someone with no ring can't see a ring or if they can they need good mind good eyes... so he ask where is he) Gandalf have one of the elves ring (when Gandalf came to middle earth Cirdan The Ship maker (lord of the heavens the place where frodo leave middle earth) give to Gandalf his ring for help him in his task) And with Elrond here (Who have also a ring) the three elves ring was in the same place !

Galadriel has 1 of the rings of the elves. but Gandalf and Elrond(Arwen's dad) have the other 2.

Azog, as Napoleon said, never interrupt your enemy when he makes a mistake.

I'm sure it's been brought to your attention before, but when Thorin tells Bilbo that he "wouldn't part with a single coin", he directly quoted Smaug, who told him the same thing earlier, that's how much Dragon Sickness was a factor in Thorin acting the way he did... Maybe you caught it from the get-go, but to me it looked like you didn't, great reactions btw, especially love them in those jump scare scenes (codeword: "Mothertrucker") :D

You should read the Silmarillion (The Middle-Earth Old Testament)

Yep. There’s a reason why Gimli refers to Galadriel as ‘the great sorceress’ in the forest of lothlorien in LOTR.

I’m getting all misty eyed…😭

In the books, the master of lake town survived and was no where near this dumb. Although he was considered a little bit of a coward, he was actually a decent towns leader, under his leadership lake town was described to have a long period of peace and trade with the elves. He was also the one suspicions of the dwarfs, not Bard. This entire thing with the master having so much gold while everyone is poor is just made up by PJ, the people of lake town where not really ever described as being poor until the dragon came.

That's a great Lonely Mountain shirt! Can I ask where you got it?

man Galadriel is scary as hell lmao

8:24 He disintegrated.

Galadriel is Elrond's mother-in-law. In case you werent aware.

Galadriel is such a badass Anyone else chuckle when a swear word almost sneaks out of her mouth

to fill the empty feeling after it all ends, you can can watch all the making of documentaries, if you can find them. there's hours and hours of content there! for hobbit and LoTR

Elrond bore Vilya, which was the mightiest of the Elven rings. He should have been the one to face down Sauron, or at least he should have aided Galadriel in doing so.

yess lets go ! :)

Hi Addie, just a quick message to tell you that I really like your videos: your genuine reactions to the movies really make my day. Also I wanted to ask you something: can you please make reaction videos to the series Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.? It’s one of the best Marvel series ever made, and I’m sure you’ll like it! Again, I really love your videos, keep up the good work 👍🏻

What u should do after finish this one? Rewatch them again and again and....

It's not over! The books are even better!!!!

Just continue again to watch the LOTR films again and see the Hobbit characters in a new context.

When you read The Lord of the Rings don't skip over the Appendices (the "bonus part" at the end): you can find there a LOT of additional information about this world, timelines, languages, events (even events AFTER the story) and the background story of many characters (as the dwarfs you see in The Hobbit, not directly included in the book itself). It's hard to believe that this amount and dept of details is the work of a single man! I recommend at least Appendix A-1, Part 5 "The story of Aragorn and Arwen"; a chapter full of beauty, joy and sadness at the same time like many things in Middle-Earth: Tolkien desired this to be part of the main tale but he was aware this should have slowed down an already looooong book, so in the end he moved that chapter to the Appendices; that's why Arwen doesn't appear much in the book. But it's a fundamental part of the story (that's why scriptwriters rightly put her in the movies): after all Aragorn put all efforts to help Frodo and defeat Sauron not only to repair the error of his ancestor Isildur, but also to became worthy of Arwen, an immortal maiden of a superior race, the most beautiful jewel in the House of Elrond. First chapters may appear slow, especially if you're used to fast paced action modern books. But Tolkien is a traditional narrator and he wants us discover his world step by step as the Hobbits do in their travels. It's a long journey so have a little patience and you'll be rewarded. The Two Towers book has a different timeline compared to the movie: the first part is only about Aragorn, Gimli and Legolas, so for hundreds of pages you know nothing about Frodo and Sam! This is a simple but very effective way to put the reader in the same mood of growing stress and anxiety of the characters: the fellowship is broken and they don't know what's happening to the others! This probably doesn't work on you as you already know the story from the movies, but I hope you'll notice and appreciate this trick! Within the book there is a map which helps avoid confusion between places like Erebor (the dwarvish kingdom in The Hobbit) and Moria (the one in The Lord of the Rings, Khazad-dum in Dwarvish). Moria fell down long ago; after the events in The Hobbit some dwarfs from the Thorin's company leaded by Balin tried to reclaim it as they did with Erebor. After an initial success they at last were overwhelmed, that's why we see Balin's tomb in Moria in Lord of the Rings. The Hobbit book was intended by Tolkien for a children tale, so it's written in a more simple and funny way compared to The Lord of the Rings (which is a mature mythology); don't be surprised finding different writing styles in various Tolkien works. The Hobbit movies are not as good as Lord of the Rings movie (though they worth a view if you like Middle-Earth): they changed/messed up/invented (too) many little and big things with questionable results. Changes in Lord of the Rings had the purpose of fit more material, changes in The Hobbit... I don't know. Tolkien never wrote about dwarfs burping and farting or Radagast's face covered with bird's poo: trash things like these are not his style (Dwarfs are harsh people, but definitely gentlemen, and Radagast is a respectable Wizard). The book has many funny moments without ANY vulgarity. The very good part is that they included in the movies events and character that aren't directly described in the book, but we know from other sources (The Lord of the Rings and the above mentioned Appendices) their presence and deeds at that time in that places (as Radagast, Legolas or the attack at Dol Guldur), in order to offer a more complete view of the events preceding The Lord of the Rings trilogy; after all, we all know it's all part of the same single unique story, isn't it? Last thing, never forget the "hidden" message: pity and mercy are the only real way to defeat Evil (starting from Bilbo sparing Gollum's life, without which The ring would not have been destroyed 80 years after). Any act of violence, even made with good purpose, turns in the end to evil or bad things. So, try not to desire death for the villains! Please, please, please! Let us know you impressions with a reaction/commentary video(s) for the books!

They are coming out with a full length LOTR anime set for theatrical release.

Those earthworms are the Jar Jar Binks of the series. They look every bit like an arm in a glove poking out of a sandbox. With all of the great visuals, these are just ridiculous... and unnecessary since they are not part of Tolkien's work (it was the orcs and goblins that tunneled the mountains, not arm-glove worms). When you get to the end, stay for the closing song. The Last Goodbye really wraps up the whole movie series (LOTR and Hobbit combined). Written and performed by Billy Boyd, who played Pippin in LOTR; he said he ugly cried when he heard it at the screening of this movie.

If you want more LotR then there's always The Appendices which puts all other "the making of" documentaries to shame imo spanning 2 parts per film and around 12 hrs in total (iirc). Here's a "sneek peek" i found on YT: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HPmb3Al25pM.html

0:56 Check out Bakshi's 1978 version.

its NOT over, u can still read the PRE PREQUEL The SIlmarillion If u CAN read that is .. 8)

Bard is my favorite character in this series, then Bilbo

Girl, you have waterfall eyes.. Love you. So emotional heart ♥️♥️♥️😇

The only scenes i enjoyed was Alfred's death. I guess you could say it was gold that killed the beast. And Dain's inaguration as king under the mountain.

Seeing galadriel in this just reminds me how bad rings of power is going to be

I have no idea if it will be any good but there is a middle earth show coming out on Prime called The Rings of Power.

Any idea why and when thorin was forging a gigantic golden bell just to break his own wall down and then charging out, avoiding getting hit by rocks and the bell. Not to mention they all thought it would be a great idea to get out of their shiny mithril chainmails and plate armor they found inside the mountain and now they fight inside their light film leather armor? Thats one aspect of why fans like me are very critical about the hobbit. It doesnt make much sense. Too much over the top. They all must have died countless times, at least once because the fat orc fell on them.

The istari, ( wizards) are myar spirits from the elvish undying lands. ( you need to read the silmirillion).. Galadriel knew the myar spirit that became Gandalf when she lived in the undying land. Hisform in middle earth was transformed to old man but I think she see his immortal form, which is incredibly beautiful male . But you need to read the silmirilion to I understand so.e things in the hobbit and lotr. It's is like when gimli ask for a hair, she gives him three. Feanor, the greatest noldor( elf) lord asked galaxies for three hairs from her head...she refused.

This may be the weakest of The Hobbit Trilogy but it's still underrated, I think it was the right decision opening the movie with Smaug's demise I mean how boring would it have been to open it with the Dwarves searching for the Arkenstone. Galadriel vs Sauron is so epic!

Good new Addie. LOTR is actually better the second time as you see so many scenes with an understanding of the context and significance. So much you would have missed by only watching it once. Hard to find time when you are doing this reactor thing but you will see one day when you revisit them.

9:10 yeah Galadriel is a Noldor elf (high elf if you like). They are like normal elves cept x 50. Running up a Oliphant would be a morning stroll to her.

Please Addie watch also along with the gods.. Its korean movie and i bet you will love that😊😊♥️

This video will explain a lot about why Thranduil is so obsessed with those gems (it includes a deleted scene as well) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qCY_ctV63HU.html

Get your tissues ready bruh!!

I got into total war Warhammer after the middle earth series ended to help my addiction 😁

You don't know what to do with yourself? I do, read all the books it's so full of detail you can get lost in its lore all over again

You still have all the books to read! Lots more Middle Earth out there.

Totally understand you but, you will be fine Addy. Although I consider LOTR to be the GOAT of all movies, there are definitely other great movies that will deserve your attention and time.

Galadriel is more in love with Gandalf than she is her husband Celeborn

I suggest watching Legends of the fall at some point, if you have not. It's a great movie

I have watched several reviews from first time watchers of the hobbit.. Since The Rings Movies came first Most watch them before seeing the Hobbit.. Listening to some of the comments people make I'm Thinking But The HOBBIT WAS FIRST .... It Totally Bothered Me that The Ring Movies came out first, I was Screaming What about The Hobbit ??? How Cam You make These Movies Without THE HOBBIT ???? I wonder if anyone else who Grew Up Reading all the books feel the same way as I Do... If anyone reading this has Not seen any of the movies I Highly Recommend you watch THE HOBBIT FIRST Since It was The First Book !

FIRST 9:01PM UK 25.05.2022

last movie ended with a cliffhanger and you decided to end this series like that? :D

There's an animated hobbit movie from 1977 that's actually awesome and only an hour and half long . Sadly it always gets ignored by reaction channels

the arrow is enchanted never missed it's mark. You could always play the lord of the rings video games and make videos about it just suggesting if want to continue with it some go back even further back than the hobbit.

I know what you mean... what now?¿?¿? hehehehe
