Re: Tinhat moments

[elaminator]

Yeaaaa, the parallels were rather obvious.

There are a lot of moments that struck me. (Bilbo's being the final voice to shake Thorin of his 'gold sickness', and the whole "To me, he was..." scene where Bilbo can't get the words out and Balin watches him with a knowing look and sparkle in his eye. I get that losing a friend would be unspeakably painful, but the Thorin death scene did not feel platonic at all to me; BOFA was the tragic love story of Thorin and Bilbo, lol.)

I won't say the last film is anywhere near perfect, but if you go into it wanting to see a Bilbo and Thorin romance you should be overjoyed, imo. At least about that aspect. They don't have as many scenes together as I'd like (but then again they would be like 70 percent of the movie if it were up to me, so maybe it's for the best), but the ones they do have are wonderful.

I forgot to mention the scene where Thorin finds out Bilbo took the arkenstone, which was also a massive shippy moment. He has tears in his eyes, looks utterly devastated and proclaims that Bilbo has no claim over HIM, even though Bilbo was talking about the arkenstone. (There's a bit before that where it sounds like he's saying the treasure of Erebor is his and Bilbo's; he keeps lumping them together. Bilbo does the same when he talks about their honor.) It was some weird phrasing if we aren't expected to believe that something more was going on between them.

There's a buttload of subtext in this film. Subtext, or I am reading too much into things. Either way it is glorious and feels like canon.
