I wouldn't be surprised. Or basically, there could also simply be the battle of Dol Guldur involving the Elven prince who then, for example in the aftermath, is being talked to by Gandalf, and Gandalf ends the dialogue with blessing the Elven prince and kindly asking him to intervene and try to work a bit on his father's stubborn heart. Which the prince will take heed of and thus, in the third movie, the father's pride and hate for Dwarves will turn, in the important point of the battle, and he will command his hosts to help the Dwarves... but that's already jumping too far into the future.

In any case, Gandalf will emerge from the dialogue with looking at the leaving prince, muttering to himself "this lad is brave and has a good heart. He might have a role to play in the future."

At least I hope there's not going to be any Elf lady waving her pretty white fingers to make him awake.

Of course not. There won't be any Elf ladies in Dale. However, speaking of Elven ladies, I can pretty well imagine Bilbo sort of drooling after some random Elven girl who, what, cleans the stables, or whatever she is doing there, and will end up somehow conflicted between actually staying with the Elves and staying with his friends. Okay, that is maybe really a bit over the top (though I think, in all seriousness, some sort of "moral conflict" like that could appear there, only perhaps, and hopefully, not in relation to an Elven girl who randomly happens to discover invisible Bilbo, later befriends him, and he sort of misuses her friendship to e.g. steal the keys to make their escape, and he will have a bit of moral dilemma over it...).

P.S. Oh, and one more short thing. Pretty sure about this one. After the battle with the spiders, the Dwarves are in a merry mood: "Ho, ho! Look at this! We have defeated the spiders! Not to speaking of our magnificent burglar, we're a bunch of Dwarves who are armed to the teeth and can fight any danger!" "And are breathing so loud that we could shoot you all where you stand," says a beautiful blonde elf appearing from behind a tree.

If they make ANY prophetic reference to the LotR movies in any of the Hobbit movies whatsoever, I will facepalm as much as I did with Sebastian.

Legolas is going to teach Bard to shoot or vice versa




PS. Note also the sideburns and Orlando's creepy eyes.

The elves with Dol Guldor, it never really mentions how they drive Sauron out of the place so the elves might have a role to play especially since the fortress is in their forest.
