I'd like to see a battle of powerful sorcerers that doesn't involve breakdancing..
But then it has to introduce all the other wizards that play no role at all in the later books. I dont see how they can stretch the mirkwood subplot out for an entire movie without it either being stretched real thin. Or them making up random shit to fill the gaps. And they cant really use overt magic in a grand battle.
