Although six films have been shot in this series, there are still many unfilled "pits" in this final work. The film is gripping, but when you think about it carefully, there are many details that are still full of doubts: which five armies do the "Battle of the Five Armies" refer to? Whose hands did the gold and silver treasure of Gushan fall into? Why was Queen Galadriel hacked again? And Peter Jackson, the director who has always been keen on making soy sauce in his own films, also wants to be a Chinese talent this time. Only by knowing these secrets can we pass the customs!
Which five armies are the "Battle of the Five Armies"?
This is almost a common question that people who have seen movies will ask. The audience can easily find the three armies of dwarves, elves and humans, but what are the remaining two?
In Tolkien's original work, the "Battle of the Five Armies" refers to a famous war that broke out during the Gushan mission, but the details of this battle are not involved in the novel The Hobbit, but appear in Kings in the appendix of The Lord of the Rings's trilogy. It is mentioned in the book that the war broke out near Irubo, on the ruins of Gucheng. Lake town humans, dark Elfing, lonely mountain and iron mountain dwarves fight orcs and wolves. The five armies composed of these five races are collectively called the "Five Armies". But in fact, in the movie The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, there is no army composed of wolves. Wolves only appear in movies as mounts for orc troops.
In this regard, director Peter Jackson and screenwriter philippa boyens once said in an interview that the definition of "Five Armies" has been controversial among China fans, and there is no specific summary in the original work. In the process of shooting, the creative team made a certain choice, focusing on the story of the characters, diluting the composition of the army, but they will try to add some wolf scenes in the later extended version to restore the concept of the five armies and leave no regrets for fans.
Where did all the treasures of the lonely mountain go in the end? The whereabouts of the treasure in the film have also attracted many people's attention: where did the Akon gem finally go? Who has an elf necklace? There is also the Jinshan Mountain in the lonely mountain. How is it divided? In this regard, Peter Jackson made it clear in an interview with Sohu Entertainment that Akon Jem was buried with Sorin and will be seen in the extended DVD of the film. How to divide the gold in Gushan? The original novel "The Hobbit" also gives a complete account: all the treasures of the lonely mountain were distributed to the remaining dwarves according to the original share, and in addition, dyne gave Bud a quarter of all the gold and silver. Bud gave the mayor of Lake Town a lot of gold to rebuild his home. Besides, Bud gave the necklace to Thranduil.
In the story, Thranduil is not a cold-blooded person who only admits jewelry wealth. He also cherished the friendship with Bilbo, gave Bilbo a lot of treasures, and put the sword of Aucry of Warcraft on his grave when Sorin was caught. As long as the enemy approaches, it will shine brightly in the dark.
Who did Peter Jackson make a guest appearance in this film?
As we all know, Peter Jackson is a very naughty director. He likes to play a guest role in soy sauce in his movies, and he also likes to bury eggs, which is hard for fans to find. From The Lord of the Rings trilogy to The Hobbit trilogy, he played the role of soy sauce in almost every movie. In "The Battle of the Five Armies", he once again entangled fans.
In the interview, Peter revealed that he and his wife Fran both appeared at the end of the movie, and Peter had no beard in the movie. After some hard searching, we finally found that Peter appeared on the wall of Bilbo's house, and Peter Jackson and his wife Fran became Bilbo's parents "Bango Baggins" and "Belladonna Tucker", which made people cry. They were truly "the father of the Lord of the Rings and the mother of the Lord of the Rings".
Not only that, family members from all walks of life of the crew also lined up to make guest appearances in these six films. It is reported that Fran voiced the Ringling in the The Lord of the Rings trilogy, and Orlando's mother, the blooming flower, played this role in The Lord of the Rings. This time, Lips' parents also appeared in the film, playing two lake town refugees, standing with Gandalf and fighting side by side.
