Honest Trailer and How THE HOBBIT: THE BATTLE OF THE FIVE ARMIES Should Have Ended

I've ranted on this site before about how much I really don't like The Hobbit movies. The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies was a joke, and the fact that they stretched a kids' book into an "epic" series of three freakin' movies casts a bad shadow on the brilliant The Lord of the Rings trilogy. I said after seeing Battle of the Five Armies that it seemed as if Peter Jackson was hate-directing sections of it, because if you'll recall, he didn't want to return to direct any of those films at all after LOTR (Guillermo del Toro was supposed to direct). Here's a really great video that will tell you exactly why the Hobbit movies suck in comparison to The Lord of the Rings.

Anyway, the guys at Honest Trailers have teamed up with the folks at How It Should Have Ended for a combo video about The Battle of the Five Armies, and although I still can't stand the "jokes" in the Honest Trailer videos - seriously, those stupid puns at the end are unbearable - the rest of the video does make some solid points, and the HISHE portion is right on the money. Check it out below.
