In BOTFA Bilbo tells Thorin the same thing, but that time it was too late. )-: I have a really hard time choosing my favorite battle. I'd have to say that this one kind of ties with the battle of helms deep forLizzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00402269932600706940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881774.post-21050301339411842015-03-06T15:28:17.835-05:002015-03-06T15:28:17.835-05:00But you don't have to use my definition!!!!! ...But you don't have to use my definition!!!!!

There is way more time spent in battle in RotK than this one, and I heard no complaints about that one. Possibly more time in Helms Deep as well. The BotFA fight is sooooo short. I can't wait for the extended edition because I need more battle. I want to spend more time with the other DKorenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05819702518388146971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881774.post-52360865134721153592015-03-06T15:06:35.402-05:002015-03-06T15:06:35.402-05:00I think the individual fights all work together as...I think the individual fights all work together as a cohesive whole, so I consider it all to be one big battle.<br /><br />I was kind of annoyed after two separate viewings for TBOTFA when people walked out saying, "That was good, but there was way too much fighting."
