So while we were on the bus coming home tonight,
Agan and I started talking about the next Hobbit movie. We agreed that the Unexpected Journey's storyline followed that of the Fellowship of the Ring, so we started wondering if The Desolation of Smaug will be like the Two Towers. We started making stupid jokes and silly predictions of ridiculous rip-offs and then we realised we might actually not be very far off. And that's why we wanted to make this thread:
What silly/ridiculous/ludicrous déjŕ vu moments will we have when watching The Desolation of Smaug?
Let me start with these three:
1. The battle of Dol Guldur aka the Battle of Helm's Deep. An unexpected group of Elves will arrive in the darkest moment. Their leader is a prince who is disobeying his uncle - wait FATHER! - who doesn't want to meddle in the good guys' cause because he doesn't want to risk his people.
2. Dol Guldur aka Isengard will be washed with the water of the Mirkwood River that finally can run free!
3. Thorin aka Aragorn will fake die... oops, that already happened in the first movie! But I wouldn't really put it past Peter Jackson that when Thorin emerges from the river (in a barrel) he's half dead and will be lovingly woken up by Bilbo aka horse. At least I hope there's not going to be any Elf lady waving her pretty white fingers to make him awake.
Give me more!
edit: There's actually
proof about the barrels, I seriously hope PJ doesn't botch it!
