The Hobbit Trilogy: 10 Dumbest Moments

1. Thranduil Telling Legolas To Find Aragorn

This scene is unforgivably dumb - from the stilted, melodramatic refusal to actually use the word €œAragorn€ (his true name you must discover for yourself) to the ham-fisted The Fellowship Of The Ring overture, it reeks of self-congratulation.

This is the magnum opus of terrible The Lord Of The Rings references in The Hobbit, serving utterly no purpose other than to try and please fans. Is it supposed to be clever? Is it supposed to be exciting? It's lowest common denominator and barely makes sense at all - if The Hobbit takes place sixty years before The Fellowship Of The Ring, and Aragorn is in his eighties during The Two Towers, did Legolas find him when he was in his twenties? Did they hang out for fifty years? If that's the case, why is none of this mentioned in LOTR? It's a reference that costs more than it was worth including. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uikIIiAdrMI What do you find the dumbest moment in The Hobbit Trilogy?
