It’s been a while (or at least it feels like it) since we’ve all had a truly good spy story with some juicy details or photos that Warner Bros. hasn’t trickle-released to the public.
If you’ve been chafing at the bit for more, 中土红皮书 (The Red Book of Middle-earth, a Tolkien fan site from China) has just leaked 27 images from two forthcoming movie tie-in books: Jude Fisher’s The Battle of the Five Armies Visual Companion and Brian Sibley’s The Battle of the Five Armies Official Movie Guide. Be warned: there are movie spoilers as well as discussion/analysis below.
If you like what you see after the movie spoiler space, you can still pre-order your copy using the links below: neither book is due for release until November 20.
It seems that there’s some behind-the-scenes material on the Extended Edition of The Desolation of Smaug that reveals hints of battle scenes from the final films.
If you don’t have a copy yet yourself, check out the animated gifs from the Armipace Tumblr below for a bit of a taster. Also, if you missed it, you may enjoy our scene-by-scene breakdown of all the additional content in the DOS: EE. To check that out, just click here!
