The Battle of the Five Armies |4K-HDR| Thranduil vs Orcs & Thorin’s Madness (2014)

In The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, Thranduil’s prowess as a warrior is showcased in far greater detail, particularly after the fall of his majestic elk mount during the chaos of battle. As the armies clash on the ruined fields outside Erebor, Thranduil rides into the fray atop his great elk, cutting through orcs with swift precision. The elk itself fights alongside him, using its massive antlers to toss and impale enemies with ease. However, the tide turns when the elk is struck down mid-battle, sending Thranduil to the ground. Unshaken by the loss of his steed, Thranduil immediately rises and engages a wave of oncoming orcs. Meanwhile, within the mountain, Thorin Oakenshield is succumbing to the crushing weight of dragon sickness. Surrounded by the unimaginable wealth of Erebor, he grows increasingly paranoid and obsessed, his thoughts consumed by the Arkenstone—the symbolic heart of his kingdom and the treasure he believes will secure his rule.
