Trolls are stupid and not immortal, they can be killed with a spear. You just rooted for the orcs, although they lost not only in the movie, but also in the book
@@reek4062 Personally I don’t care about either being contradictory to the books, the films and the books are separate entities made by different people so it would only make sense that they’re not identical. But how is Helm’s Deep stupid nonsense? To me it’s one of the greatest battles in all of film history. There are issues with it of course (mostly the battle being won by Gandalf and the Rohirrim, not anyone actually already in the battle, feels like a cop out to me. “And then thousands of horsemen who we’ve barely seen before turned up and saved the day” feels cheap) but there’s so much good in it that I can easily overlook these flaws I’ve thought of. The Five Armies doesn’t have the good, and has about a thousand times more bad.
This vid (and part 1) are the "action only" clips, so it skips a bunch of mid-battle stuff that happened like the elves just sort of fucking off to go defend the town
Just re-watched the movie, this vid actually cut out shit tons, not just talking but also epic battle scenes or overall important entertainment scenes. Bad cut I guess and my bad
It would be so awkward when Thorin and his men realized they are the only one charging towards the orcs while his cousin and the rest of the dwarves went inside Erebor to barricade themselves.
CJ YR I wonder where the did the rest of the dwarf army came from when Thorin charged to the Azog.I know Ironfoot left some of this troops back (you can see the rest of them moving in around 0:55) and the new ones came with flags...
This just goes to show that CGI can't beat practical effects. Watch this and then compare it to the Fellowship fighting the Uruk-hai just before they all split up. Night and Day
2:10 that is what why Alexander the Great conquered so much and never lost a battle. The morale boost to his soldiers of seeing their king fight alongside them is unfathomable.
@@momoproblems0 Must be some sort of Indian cow-lover looking back at when "India was strlong nation." Yet, a simple Google search will show that Alexander died in Babylon (present-day Iraq) and did not even attempt to go into India due to morale and leadership issues. He is just ignorant.
Because back then they use real people not CGI. Nowadays it took times to assemble lots of people and tons of peripheral. Not only times, money as well.
@@TetsuoNL true but the main cast and some fight aren't fully CGI which makes it not unreal. That's why people called things like Avengers/Hobbit/Ready player one a CGI galore because the fight itself is fully done in CGI.
Yeah I hate how the movie kinda forgot the battle in the valley. The movie just stopped following the battle there and we never really know what happened to the elven army too.
Well you know how it is, it's been scientifically proven to be impossible to be consistant when filming a movie. Also the CGI budget was bleeding buckets so....
I have always found the bit at 0:45 the funniest thing when he starts gently nudging his un-armoured head against Orks wearing steel plate helmets and it somehow kills them.
Azog with thousands of Orcs, dozens of trolls and a bunch of were worms: You can't defeat me. Dain with only a few hundred Dwarves left: I know, but he can! *13 more Dwarves!*
“To The King, To The King” gets me every time 🔥💯 ima need to get this extended version of the hobbit trilogy 💯 so much better then the theatrical version
I love how there was just a big ass battle between the dwarves and elves but there are no bodies from that and meanwhile, the elf army just disappears. I guess that's what happens when your "strategy" is to jump over a shield wall to engage larger, stronger, heavier opponents that also happen to be heavily armored and much much more numerous
Peter Jackson didn't have the same funds, control, NOR the same time, to devote to "The Hobbit" as he had been given for "Lord of the Rings". Also, he has a great love of CGI. His use of such in Fellowship and Two Towers was limited, due to it being a relatively new technique, and the films are all the better for their sparing use. He used more in Return (obviously needed with the Ghost Army, etc) but you can tell that, of the three, that last film has aged less well than the first two. Practical effects are ALWAYS better, with limited CGI to just add some "flair". But if he HAD been given the same time, control, and funds to make The Hobbit, even with more use of CGI, I'd bet it would have been a better trilogy. It's a fun watch as it is, but a poor adaptation of the book; which is the biggest shame as LotRs is THE best adaptation of ANY book I've ever had the privilege to watch.
This shit makes me emotional my dad introduced me to hobbit and lord of the rings when i was young he died 3 years ago so it brings back good memories watching these clips remember that we always used to watch this
The setup with that gigantic golden bell, the obivious copy of Gimli in Helm's Deep with Bombur, the fact that an army of dwarves in heavy plate armor seems to be desparate for the help of another dozen or so dwarves with vastly inferioir equipment, the surprised look on Azogs face, all while he is standing on a hill far away, so he probably can't see a damn thing - all this creates a very unique moment. Infact it is such a unique moment, that it would cause even the mighty Smaug himself to cringe so hard, he'd have goosebumps all over those powerful dragon scales.
To be fair to Azog. He IS far away, which means he was watching his troops win the battle through superior numbers and his tactical and strategic moves using the horns. Now he is watching his troops get walked through like shallow water. He is confused AF.
Wake the fuck samurai, we have a city to burn I didn’t see the horn part. But you are right he is supposed to use “their” for the horn and “there” for the place they are coming out of
Why does everything in The Hobbit look like a floaty cartoon? After the masterpiece of The Lord of the Rings, how did they simply forget about all the things that made it look so good!?
@@habibcicero3833 Production problems. They were rushed hard by the top execs to just get it done, they had to sacrifice a lot of heart and quality to just spew out a product that would make a lot of quick money. And it did. Most people don't give a flying fuck about quality, just look at the success story that is the Fast and Furious franchise.
And it was originally 2 films but then studio mandate turned it into 3 films for another trilogy. The LOTR books got a movie each, but the Hobbit was one book split into 3 films.
I was thinking about that watching it but then realized that cutting the legs off and replacing them with those metal things makes the troll harder to take them for infantry units since there are no anckles to cut
Watching all the Hobbit movies made me appreciate how badass the dwarves are but it also led me to think about what their "abilities" are compared to the Elves. First, it seems like they're exceptionally durable. The way Dain Ironfoot repeatedly headbutts Orcs who are wearing armor makes me think the Dwarves have especially thick bones, much more than the Elves, Men, or Orcs. Of course, there are many other examples of their extraordinary endurance. Second, they have profoundly fast reflexes. While certainly not on the level of Elves, it's enough to give them a deadly prowess in battle against any enemy. Thirdly, they appear to be phenomenal engineers and are capable of building advanced tools of warfare that the other races don't have the skill/materials to build. I've never read the books so I don't know if any of that is true to canon. Also, they have war-goats, so that's pretty cool too.
that low-key badassery is only for these pathetic movies which look like a trailer for a second-rate vidya game. the only thing that holds true is their durability. they were intentionally made so kewl bc the studio demanded to "entertain audiences" first and foremost.
This is all plausible though. They evolved to live underground in much tougher physical conditioned and lead lives that get their hands much more dirty. (Figuratively speaking ofc, not necessarily literally getting their hands dirty.
Its doesn't have to be a plot armor, many kings like Alexander The Great, Jan III Sobieski foughts in front ranks in any battle and almost never get hurt
@@flakes1972 Well in WW2 in battle of Vizna Polish army had 700 soldiers and fought against German army with 40k soldiers, even with tanks, planes, heavy altillery. Poland losed, but they fought for 3 DAYS, and Germany lost much more soldiers. For me this battle was much more impresive than battle in Hobbit yet still it was real life
3:26 there is a troll who is amputee of both legs, both hands, has his eyes gauged and replaced with chain. Orcs are good at making prosthetic. But I kind feel sorry for this doomed creature.
Man, if only peter Jackson had time to develop and put his touches in the hobbit properly without WB Studios forcing him to rush production. These battle scenes would've been epic like LOTR and wouldn't have gotten a choppy story line.
Well, it's not change the battle's tide. Majority of dwarfs were still overwhelmed. the arrival of eagles are the one that change the tide of the battle
power of bad writing, even in the books when Thorin and co. appear the battle still is slowly becoming a defeat for the dwarves,elves and humans until the Eagles and Beorn break havoc and kill the orcs leader Bolg
Before Thorins arrival: Oh bois, those trolls are pretty hard to kill. After Thorins arrival: Oh wait, we got some damn spears, why don't we throw 'em at those trolls?
I’m sure the dwarves were, but they were throwing their spears into the crowds of orcs where the dwarves lines were either gonna collapse or have broken through

@@WitcherGerd lol imagine having the best archers back and firing from the walls... and leaving the "brutes" up front to BRUTILIZE the enemy... u dont put all ur eggs in one basket if u dont have too.. lol
1:15 If you take your time to count the amount of troops here, you'll see that the dwarves are around ~250 and the ONE formation of orcs is 240, while the one in the front is around 550. That means ~250 dwarves defeated roughly 2700 heavily armored orcs (that stood in formation btw) + a few trolls (that literally crushes several dwarves by themselves just a few seconds earlier) HOWEVER if you look at 2:40, the dwarves somehow got into formation AND duplicated themselves enough to turn into 800 dwarves rather than just 250. While the orcs lost all formation, even the ones in the back for whatever reason. I mean, is it really that hard for a big studio to stay consistent? Such a pathetic movie.
You're right, but the movie was literally in developer hell. If you watch the behind the scenes features you can see Jackson laying on set, semi-awake, pondering how to save the film.
For me there is nothing more emotional than watching a wavering army realise their doom but then their worries dissipate as they accept their end and in that final moment they rally and fight harder than they've ever fought in their entire lives with a unified emotion, passion, strength and unity.
In the book it is explained to us that the coordination of Thorin first and the audacity of Dáin second transmitted confidence and courage to the others, as Gimli says, the dwarves are too good at short notice.
Know that no, you are not the only one my friend, And for a very long time I also asked myself this question and even would have wanted to be there myself to see it with my own eyes, but it must be admitted that on the condition of being highly skilled in the art of Combat in a real melee, Life expectancy should not be very long there...
nah fr I'm so dumb for stuff wtih a lot of people, specially if they all look the same to me, I wouldn't be able to know who's my team and who isn't, I couldn't even play soccer at my school because of that lol
@@Lena-ff5hrthat was a big problem in history as well, another reason why they used actual battle lines, battles only very rarely devolved into this kind of melee, most likely you'd be standing shoulder to shoulder with your mates with a spear and a shield, or a halberd or bill if we're talking about roughly 14th-15th century European levels of armour
In my opinion, in the film I think there should have been more scenes between the dwarf army and the battle. In the extended part there are carts, and the sheep then disappear. I think it deserves an explanation. In my opinion, the dwarf army is awesome.
Sadly no, in The Lord of the Rings, Dain had to defend Erebor from a host of Easterlings, (off camera, just what Tolkien has told us) and eventually died. Erebor was almost overrun, as was dale, but eventually the mountain’s defense destroyed the Easterling horde
I have always loved the Dwarfs since the Lord of the Rings came out and i love how much they focused on them in the newer movies. They are some of the best characters throughout this all.
I love how when it’s focused on Thorin, Kili, and Fili fighting it’s all serious but when focused on any other dwarf int he company there’s a humorous feel to it
I really wish Del Toro had a chance to finish these movies. Seeing a troll with its hands and feet replaced with weapons and it’s being steered by chains hooked up to its eyes is something else
@@deusextalkina7722 preproduction is still a part of the filmmaking process lol. And a part the director is in charge of, so yes, using “finish” in this context is perfectly acceptable lol
1:08 so you're telling me this dwarf has to stab the orc several times with a spear to kill him, but dain can casually headbutt an orc wearing a steel helmet and kill him?
2:39 I imagine that Jackson thought this shot of the dwarves wading forward, splitting the orc lines like a tide would look incredibly cool. But to me it looks unfeasible. We've just had a prolonged battle where we've seen the armies of King Dain and the Gundabad Orcs being somewhat evenly matched, with the orcs winning through weight of numbers. The dwarves were clearly depicted looking exhausted and wounded as they retreated to the gates of Erebor, and then suddenly they're washing aside what is clearly shown to us to be a VAST army of foes that has already been demonstrated to be competent in their strength and brutality. And suddenly they're being washed away, like they're not even there, by this supposedly exhausted and numerically inferior force of dwarves that they were defeating soundly five minutes ago? It's kinda daft.
Tbf, I don't even think Peter Jackson was proud of this movie. Heard he was brought in very late into the thing, and he had been writing scripts like a day before shooting or something. I may be wrong.
But wereworms, giant trolls with prosthetic maces, Dwarves, Woodland Elves, giant trained bats, a grey Wizard, Hobbits, an enormous solid gold bell the size of a 4 story building and a hoarde of gold larger than all the gold in existence... All seems legit though.. "Fantasy" as in "fantastic story".
@@dj11o9er You are. I mean.....what? This movie took 4 years to make. And "shooting"?........ What? %75 was "captured" digitally using blue screen and actors wearing onesies with contact visual points. Took more than 4 years to make this entire movie. The entire crew and actors were all flown all around the world to "shoot" real footage. Were you just being sarcastic? Taking the piss?
anyone notice how the elves just disappear by the end of this? I saw the leader and then the skirt/ kilt of a standing elf warrior when they were focusing on the Dwarf leader, but then when they regroup in this part there's literally no sign of them and don't even get me started on how both the dwarven[especially them] and elf army shrinks to about a fraction of what was portrayed in the beginning as soon as the orcs show up just to emphasize how outnumbered they are.... and yea, I know it's a move, but let's be a little consistent here., update, I'm also apparently stupid for not realizing that this was an edited and that the elves actually went off somewhere to provide support
Thorin an hour before this scene: let me just put this very strong shiny armor so that the orcs have an idea who they are dealing with Also Thorin minutes before this scene: let me lose this shit Imma fight these bastards without armor

@@Lukart44 these are the same dwarves that took a castle after the death of a dragon. I'm not sure if the orcs knew that Bard killed the dragon. But imagine the ones who you thought killed the dragon charge at you and give the others strength and motivation.
Trolls are stupid and not immortal, they can be killed with a spear. You just rooted for the orcs, although they lost not only in the movie, but also in the book

But how is Helm’s Deep stupid nonsense? To me it’s one of the greatest battles in all of film history. There are issues with it of course (mostly the battle being won by Gandalf and the Rohirrim, not anyone actually already in the battle, feels like a cop out to me. “And then thousands of horsemen who we’ve barely seen before turned up and saved the day” feels cheap) but there’s so much good in it that I can easily overlook these flaws I’ve thought of.

@gillmorAfr24 good point, elves did go to dale I think
This vid (and part 1) are the "action only" clips, so it skips a bunch of mid-battle stuff that happened like the elves just sort of fucking off to go defend the town
Just re-watched the movie, this vid actually cut out shit tons, not just talking but also epic battle scenes or overall important entertainment scenes. Bad cut I guess and my bad
Most of the dwarves died and alot of Elves died or went to sale to help the men
and are back again maybe 6 lines while the charge 2:38 and much more in the close combat 2:40 :D

Similar to Gimli and Legolas at Helms Deep, casually having an orc killing contest.
I love how there was just a big ass battle between the dwarves and elves but there are no bodies from that and meanwhile, the elf army just disappears.
I guess that's what happens when your "strategy" is to jump over a shield wall to engage larger, stronger, heavier opponents that also happen to be heavily armored and much much more numerous
It was lazy writing. Apparently the elves were the most complex cgi to create so they only used them in a few scenes
Peter Jackson didn't have the same funds, control, NOR the same time, to devote to "The Hobbit" as he had been given for "Lord of the Rings". Also, he has a great love of CGI. His use of such in Fellowship and Two Towers was limited, due to it being a relatively new technique, and the films are all the better for their sparing use. He used more in Return (obviously needed with the Ghost Army, etc) but you can tell that, of the three, that last film has aged less well than the first two. Practical effects are ALWAYS better, with limited CGI to just add some "flair".
But if he HAD been given the same time, control, and funds to make The Hobbit, even with more use of CGI, I'd bet it would have been a better trilogy. It's a fun watch as it is, but a poor adaptation of the book; which is the biggest shame as LotRs is THE best adaptation of ANY book I've ever had the privilege to watch.
They were shown going to the city and there were bodies shown
@@IvorEyesshow they literally went to the city

The setup with that gigantic golden bell, the obivious copy of Gimli in Helm's Deep with Bombur, the fact that an army of dwarves in heavy plate armor seems to be desparate for the help of another dozen or so dwarves with vastly inferioir equipment, the surprised look on Azogs face, all while he is standing on a hill far away, so he probably can't see a damn thing - all this creates a very unique moment. Infact it is such a unique moment, that it would cause even the mighty Smaug himself to cringe so hard, he'd have goosebumps all over those powerful dragon scales.
I agree it's a bit silly but you'd be surprised by how much of a factor morale played in historical battles
@@julesdebeckker627 Good point! One can even observe that in sports often.
To be fair to Azog. He IS far away, which means he was watching his troops win the battle through superior numbers and his tactical and strategic moves using the horns. Now he is watching his troops get walked through like shallow water. He is confused AF.

Watching all the Hobbit movies made me appreciate how badass the dwarves are but it also led me to think about what their "abilities" are compared to the Elves. First, it seems like they're exceptionally durable. The way Dain Ironfoot repeatedly headbutts Orcs who are wearing armor makes me think the Dwarves have especially thick bones, much more than the Elves, Men, or Orcs. Of course, there are many other examples of their extraordinary endurance. Second, they have profoundly fast reflexes. While certainly not on the level of Elves, it's enough to give them a deadly prowess in battle against any enemy. Thirdly, they appear to be phenomenal engineers and are capable of building advanced tools of warfare that the other races don't have the skill/materials to build.
I've never read the books so I don't know if any of that is true to canon. Also, they have war-goats, so that's pretty cool too.
Don't forget, they are legendary drinkers, thanks to their durability!
Dwarves are exceptionally durable alright. Unless on cross-country
that low-key badassery is only for these pathetic movies which look like a trailer for a second-rate vidya game. the only thing that holds true is their durability. they were intentionally made so kewl bc the studio demanded to "entertain audiences" first and foremost.
This is all plausible though. They evolved to live underground in much tougher physical conditioned and lead lives that get their hands much more dirty. (Figuratively speaking ofc, not necessarily literally getting their hands dirty.

1:15 If you take your time to count the amount of troops here, you'll see that the dwarves are around ~250 and the ONE formation of orcs is 240, while the one in the front is around 550. That means ~250 dwarves defeated roughly 2700 heavily armored orcs (that stood in formation btw) + a few trolls (that literally crushes several dwarves by themselves just a few seconds earlier)
HOWEVER if you look at 2:40, the dwarves somehow got into formation AND duplicated themselves enough to turn into 800 dwarves rather than just 250. While the orcs lost all formation, even the ones in the back for whatever reason.
I mean, is it really that hard for a big studio to stay consistent? Such a pathetic movie.

i really wish dain had more involvement in these films , hell he even deserves his own film for how badass he is
Sadly no, in The Lord of the Rings, Dain had to defend Erebor from a host of Easterlings, (off camera, just what Tolkien has told us) and eventually died. Erebor was almost overrun, as was dale, but eventually the mountain’s defense destroyed the Easterling horde
And Mirkwood was still recovering from the Battle of Five Armies

The headbutt didn’t kill an orc, it knocked them out.
2:39 I imagine that Jackson thought this shot of the dwarves wading forward, splitting the orc lines like a tide would look incredibly cool.
But to me it looks unfeasible. We've just had a prolonged battle where we've seen the armies of King Dain and the Gundabad Orcs being somewhat evenly matched, with the orcs winning through weight of numbers. The dwarves were clearly depicted looking exhausted and wounded as they retreated to the gates of Erebor, and then suddenly they're washing aside what is clearly shown to us to be a VAST army of foes that has already been demonstrated to be competent in their strength and brutality.
And suddenly they're being washed away, like they're not even there, by this supposedly exhausted and numerically inferior force of dwarves that they were defeating soundly five minutes ago?
It's kinda daft.
Tbf, I don't even think Peter Jackson was proud of this movie. Heard he was brought in very late into the thing, and he had been writing scripts like a day before shooting or something. I may be wrong.
But wereworms, giant trolls with prosthetic maces, Dwarves, Woodland Elves, giant trained bats, a grey Wizard, Hobbits, an enormous solid gold bell the size of a 4 story building and a hoarde of gold larger than all the gold in existence... All seems legit though..
"Fantasy" as in "fantastic story".
@@dj11o9er You are.
I mean.....what?
This movie took 4 years to make. And "shooting"?........ What?
%75 was "captured" digitally using blue screen and actors wearing onesies with contact visual points.
Took more than 4 years to make this entire movie. The entire crew and actors were all flown all around the world to "shoot" real footage.
Were you just being sarcastic? Taking the piss?
@@lilmike2710 Dude, physics still works the same. There's simply not enough dwarves to make it not look daft on film.
anyone notice how the elves just disappear by the end of this? I saw the leader and then the skirt/ kilt of a standing elf warrior when they were focusing on the Dwarf leader, but then when they regroup in this part there's literally no sign of them and don't even get me started on how both the dwarven[especially them] and elf army shrinks to about a fraction of what was portrayed in the beginning as soon as the orcs show up just to emphasize how outnumbered they are.... and yea, I know it's a move, but let's be a little consistent here., update, I'm also apparently stupid for not realizing that this was an edited and that the elves actually went off somewhere to provide support
The elves left to the city
Encouraging the battle and their Bravery takes over... Enough Commenting.👍
well, the battle actually lasts for days in the book. plus the elves, dwarwes and men were severely outnumbered to begin with
Thorin an hour before this scene: let me just put this very strong shiny armor so that the orcs have an idea who they are dealing with
Also Thorin minutes before this scene: let me lose this shit Imma fight these bastards without armor
Cool armours indeed.
