It is exceedingly bittersweet to see the wilds of Middle-earth one last time. Ever since director Peter Jackson first brought us to the Shire in 2001’s “The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring,” Middle-earth seemed to be endless. After 13 years, five movies, a dragon’s weight in box office gold and 17 Academy Awards later, the end has arrived, with “The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies” capping the prequel trilogy based on J.R.R. Tolkien’s first book, the 1937 genre-defining fantasy classic, “The Hobbit.”
