Why I Hate Peter Jackson: This Is An Extremely Long Montage

This montage is still going. I guess Peter Jackson wanted to get some action in there before we get to the Shire. Of course, the action isn’t going to include an actual shot of Smaug, so it’s meaningless action. Shots of fire going through the air and what not, but hey, action is action.

I especially liked the part where Thorin is the only one who knows that the ominous wind is a dragon. Though, as soon as he shouts the word dragon, the fire starts, so his insightful premonition of their danger did nothing to save anyone. He does throw Balin out of the way of certain death. Yay, Thorin!
