Just "why" on Kili x Tauriel

the rest was pretty good, stood a little closer to canon and fleshed out some good things like Laketown politics or Dol Guldur. Changing the Arkenstone to be an artifact that would allow Thorin to rule was a nice touch, as it actually made more sense than the canonical plot, which was "Find Smaug, Bring Burglar, ???, Profit!" Here they only wanted the Arkenstone, and with it could rally the Dwarves to fight off Smaug.

Because sausage parties are no fun.

 

Seriously though did you SEE Tauriel?

No, i get why Tauriel needed to exist, but why the romantic tension with Kili? It runs entirely counter to every portrayal of Dwarves and how they interact with Elves.
