To be honest, I totally hate it. For once there is a decent dwarven phalanx in battle formation, and we don't even get to see the orcs clash against it, because in a strategically absolutely pointless move the elves jump inbetween their enemies and a wall of spears. Just let those last eleven words sink in.
This scene not only robbed us of an epic dwarven moment, but also puts in question if elven commanders are even able of thinking straight. Logically, it would have been much more satisfying if they had flanked their common foes, especially regarding the fact that their swift twohanded blade warriors would be perfectly suited for that.
Exactly! I know that they going for a cool effect first but because that resulted in them basically tossing logic out the window they ended up with a scene (movies actually) that just failed to deliver the same awesomeness as the original trilogy.
The Hobbit book was actually rather good but the films were just terrible! I only watched them because I wanted to see them and since they were among the first to be 48fps; if they did poorly we'd be getting "Is 48fps the reason why The Hobbit failed?" click baits... oh wait I'm pretty people complained about the superior framerate.
I loved this attack so made this gif pic also.
The best attack in the two trilogies in my opinion:)
Actually I think this is the worst :)
