BOFA -_-

Wait, didn't the movie make Frodo leave the Shire when he was just 33?
That would be 20 years earlier than what the book said.
If we reset the whole timeline to 20 years earlier, then Aragorn would be about 66 when he was at Helm's Deep.
There was a span of approximately 60 years from BOFA till LoTR, base on Bilbo's age.
So, if we say that Aragorn was 66 in the movie at Helm's, then he would be 5-10 when Legolas sets out for him.
So, the question is, do we reset ages of characters because of Frodo's age and the fact that that also made events happen earlier, or do we leave their age alone?
Did I make this confusing?
 
they added sauron to explain how he was in lord of the rings but not full strength

look at minas tirith although that was originally a fortress they made it their capital after the fall of osgiliath so the last alliance coulda done something (or the dwarves of the north)to destroy their previous capital

they added legolas in just to bring some of the old guys in like how Elijah Wood was used in the first hobbit as his main character Frodo and as a dwarf in the battle of moria

and tauriel was used to add a female character and to add a bit of romance

Gundabad was the goblins capital under BOFA and earlier, but was destroyed in LOTR
 
1- I dislike Legolas "stealing the scene of book characters.
2-I thinking keeping Azog for war was great so he could 1v1 Thorin
3-Gundabad is a old dwarven fortress indeed with gundabad orcs there... Although I think tolkien didnt describe it to look like that and yes carn dum to be.
4-Thorin getting mad was a great idea for the movie rly its good for some "moral" part
5-As I said before I liked the fact Thorin and Azog fought in a 1v1.
6-*Tauriel and Kili were another great idea for the romance part of the movie so it got some people's audience.
7-They trhowed the armor down the cliff of erebor. (nah rly , idk... maybe to heavy to climb Ravenhill / run ?)
8-Well I sorta liked the black arrow usage instead of just a common aarrow, it was cooler like the fact his son gone up the tower and such and how they "create the windlance".
9-Well making it a mountain was good for giving them space to fight and such.
10-Bard's children were a good addition too cuz of family and such.
11-Samething as the number 1 <_
12- Ye I rly dont know where he took those from... but it was cool on movie
13-Meh... Bolg did that , didnt he?
14- I think the way they died: Fili captured... and Kili saving Tauriel was good.
15-DolGuldur sending troops made sense for me.

My god this doesnt end

16-Well Sauron on movies explained that sauron fled to dol guldur than back to mordor tolding in a easier way his lore.
17-Ravenhill fight was cool! ur fool!
18-THEY NOT GOBLINS!!!! THEY GUNDABAD ORCS!!! my god Goblins=GundabadOrcs but right name is GundabadOrc, And I like they fighting 2 troops comming from both sides.
19-Aragorn so would have like 30 years since on lotr he had arround 80. Thats called MOTI (something on the end of the movie that makes people feel like watching the continuation like Hobbit 2 to BOFA).

Well I think that although Peter Jackson changed it he made some good additions (well all but Legolas stealing the scene). So I cant vote on this poll than here is my answer to it: Different from the books , but very good movie.
no stories need romance : P and im pretty sure the book said goblins -.-
 
Kili and Tauriel = great idea
Goblins=GundabadOrcs 's nickname
ooooooooooor... Gundabad orc´s is Goblins nickname? Gundabad isnt the only place where there´s goblins at, a Elf and a Dwarf? WTF?

I don't like what Tauriel does too, but really... Let her die in a dark corner with her dead dwarf-bf :P
(Just because their relationship sucked)
But maybe someday elves and dwarves can be friends (Or even more than friends :evil: )...
 
...
Gundabad=Goblins
Goblins= "Racist" term gaven by dwarves meaning "robbers" "petty-ones" "weaklings"... and such
Gundabad=Officail name gaven to those kind orc since they were from angmar and dominated MountGundabad, that gave them this name.

Is it Keegul the seagull? Or maybe it's Stormgul? Nazcool? Noobgul?
