Upcoming Hobbit film to end with 45-minute battle scene
Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit: Battle of the Five Armies is going out with one heck of a bang

Get those toilet breaks in early, The Hobbit: Battle of the Five Armies is going to end with a fight scene lasting 45 minutes.
It’s certainly a big undertaking and director Peter Jackson is being careful to ensure audience attention isn’t lost.
“We have a rule that we’re not allowed to go more than two or three shots of anonymous people fighting without cutting back to our principal characters. Otherwise the audience just ends up with battle fatigue,” Jackson tells Entertainment Weekly.
The action will take place at the foot of the Lonely Mountain, as the armies fight over the treasure of Erebor. But before the fighting could kick off, there was a lot of thinking to be done.
“We had to design the landscape itself and figure out, ‘Okay, if we have 10,000 orcs, how much room are they going to take up? Are they going to fill up the valley or look like a speck?’ Then we could start drawing the arrows on the schematics,” Jackson explains.
There won’t be any last minute rescues from any huge eagles either.
“Tolkien uses eagles in a way that can be kind of awkward because they tend to show up out of the blue and change things pretty quickly.
“So here they’re just part of the plan, not the saviours,” says Jackson jokily adding, “I mean, I do realise that if the eagles had just been able to bring Frodo to Mount Doom in Lord of the Rings and let him drop the ring in, those movies would have been much shorter.”
