That's what actors tend to do. They tend to adopt the character and live it out before and during the filming. Sometimes to their own detriment.

Amazing all the work that goes on behind the scenes to create the sets. Astounding vision of the producers, director and hundreds of other people.

Legolas and Thranduil

I absolutely loved Richard Armitage as Thorin Oakenshield. And I can safely said he's my favorite character in The Hobbit. I loved Lee Pace as Thranduil and Orlando Bloom as Legolas but more so in LOTR movies. My only criticism, Legolas looked as old as his father in The Hobbit.

@victoriavelkova5298

3 жыл бұрын

Also there is something different in his attitude. Legolas from “The Hobbit” looks so angry all the time and kind of rude. In LOTR he was calm and looked quite a nice guy. I like his action scenes in Hobbit though. Perfect moves and the dynamics is just... it’s a pleasure to watch him fights.

I'd pay full price for those 20 minutes alone. It feels like LOTR again! I know they are totally seperate books/stories for the most part, but it's a good to have that familiar feeling after watching the movie.

The way Thranduil is sitting at 03:09 reminds me so much of a scene with Jareth from "Labyrinth".

Good to see Andy Serkis doing his part for the films, and Evangeline Lily...just wow!

Excuse me, Lee Pace, I need you to stop channeling Jareth the Goblin King. That's not fair.

Andy serkis is a freaking legend:D

The Barrel rider scene looked like a ton of fun to film lol

9:38 The pug though....

Orlando Bloom do be nailing the blonde wig though.

Like watching a live play...

I would kill just to walk on those sets

Martin wow great performance even without editing

That man made river is insane!!!

Anyone else want there to be a dwarf barrel ride? It looks like a lot of fun!

Still watching. There is so much wonderful fanfic out there, they could make an entire movie of Greenwood with Thranduil. That would be great.

9:40 hahaha can anyone remember if that pug is really in the film?? He seems to suit remarkably well to that set :D

Thranduil.

I love how at 1:11 Gandalf just kinda dallies in, literally 1 second before "Beorn" comes. Like, no big deal.

Does anyone else think that Thranduil kind of remind anyone of Jareth the Goblin King from the Labyrinth? At 3:00 -3:10?

OMG they build so many props to make this film! LOVE IT!

I love orlando's laugh :3

I laughed at the pre-cgi Beorn scene. “Quick shut the door Kermit is after us!”

Gandalf the great. His voice impacts more to the movie.

my god luke evans is gorgeous!

A very well funded production.

I could only imagine going for a hike and running into this down by the river.

Peter is so great. And but for the heavy costumes, it had to be great fun to be in much of this film. That must have been a piece of work just for Bombur running over rocks and tree roots, then getting that heavy costume soaked in a fast moving barrel. Martin Freeman is so good in this part. I hadn't noticed he was a dwarf running from Eribor.
