Let's say adieu to Middle-Earth with the last film from The Hobbit trilogy

The most anticipated and unmissable film of the year is here! Middle-Earth fans have been waiting for this for a very long time and the last film of the Hobbit trilogy has been released only 12 days before Christmas.
Peter Jackson's signature is promising to be one of the best of the trilogy and probably the last film to be set in Middle-Earth. I think that everybody knows the story and I just can't recommend anything other than to book the tickets and plunge yourself headlong into the world of hobbits, dwarfs and the well-known grey wizard Gandalf and watch the film of the season, The Hobbit: The Bottle of the five armies.

However, if you are not a Middle-Earth fan don't worry. There are lots of different options for you and you can choose how you want to spend the last days before Christmas.
