What the final Hobbit movie could have been called…
Peter Jackson retitled the third film Battle of the Five Armies - and Twitter responded with #RejectedHobbitTitles
Published:
The final Hobbit movie has undergone a name change. There and Back Again is now The Battle of the Five Armies starring Martin Freeman as Bilbo Baggins. A bit punchier, we think you’ll agree… but Twitter had some other ideas.
Using the hashtag #RejectedHobbitTitles, tweeters had a raft of suggestions for director Peter Jackson to consider. And, dare we admit it (sorry Pete), we prefer some of them.
@pooblemoo was on fine punning form…
