  • Third ‘Hobbit’ Film Renamed ‘The Battle of the Five Armies’

    The conclusion to Bilbo Baggins’ epic cinematic journey was always going to be big, but now it looks even bigger thanks to a name change.

    The third film in Peter Jackson’s “The Hobbit” trilogy is no longer titled “There and Back Again.” Instead, it is now named “The Battle of the Five Armies,” referring to the climactic showdown between goblins and dwarves, elves, men, and the majestic giant eagles at the foot of the Lonely Mountain.
