Well... you didn't think a movie called The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies was gonna end with a whimper, did you? Quite the contrary, according to the new trailer for the final installment in Peter Jackson's Hobbit trilogy, which teases an epic finale as various armies converge on Lonely Mountain where Bilbo (Martin Freeman), Thorin Oakenshield (Richard Armitage) and their fellow Middle-earth adventurers are holed up, preparing for the battle to end all battles. Here, take a look...
All this... and that doesn't even include Smaug (Benedict Cumberbatch), the feisty dragon who was about to wreak destruction upon the good folks of Lake Town right at the end of The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug. What's he up to while all this fighting is going on atop Lonely Mountain? Well, something tells us it's about to get a whole lot less lonely up there, that's for sure.
The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies fights its way into theaters on December 17.
What do you think of the new trailer?
