The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies

[cmiller99]

Target blu-ray will have exclusive Bard and Bain Lego figures. Best Buy's Steelbook is 2D only (again.)

Looks like they changed the tagline from "The Defining Chapter" to "The Epic Conclusion to 'The Hobbit' Trilogy." I definitely like the new one better.

Damn damn damn, probably going to have to get the minifigures separately. Unfortunately I'm a Lego Hobbit/LOTR completist in addition to collecting 1/6

Freeman as Old Bilbo

Dain looks cool, but Freeman as old Bilbo reminds me of an Ugnaught from Empire Strikes Back. Glad they went with Ian Holm.

 

[BagginsOfBagEnd]

I agree, Freeman as Old Bilbo looks a bit odd, but I do like Dain's look there.

Haven't seen those before - thanks for posting.

You can also get a good look at Dain in the Weta's latest Chronicle book:

Dain looks good. Bilbo - eehhhh

 

[cmiller99]

Bilbo looks like my nightmares.

 

[Irvy]

Bilbo looks like a scrote

Freeman as Old Bilbo is odd looking. I agree that it's good that they went with Ian Holm.

Dains axe is amazing looking..... I would totally buy that prop, I hope it gets made

Saw BOTFA for a fifth time during my Portland visit earlier in the week and one last time in HFR. Before the movie they showed trailers for The Force Awakens and Age of Ultron. Captain America, Star Wars, and Middle-Earth in one theatrical experience. My three favorite film properties of all time. It was a good movie watching day for Khev.

Movie is still taking in big money overseas. Now sitting at 915.6 million.

Those are very successful Box Office numbers WB is pleased I'm sure
