![The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies [Blu-ray] [2014]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/1433/1433952_sa.jpg)

...And not the book. If you were a Hobbit-book-only fan, you might have been OK with the first Hobbit movie, but then got turned off in movie two by the barrel-riding dwarf/elf/orc battle. I doubt you made it to the instant-on, gold-melting furnace scene where the dwarves take on the wondrous Smaug
But if you enjoy the Hobbit series as simply book-inspired, over-the-top fun, then you likely enjoyed most of movie three. Billy Connoly does a great turn as Dain, too. But I gotta say that the giant tunneling worms was a bit too campy -- shades of "Dune"

Capture vibrant videos and images with this Sony telephoto lens. Internal optical SteadyShot image stabilization helps deliver clear handheld shots, and the internal AF mechanism operates silently during movie recording for reduced noise interference. This Sony telephoto lens boasts two ED glass and two aspherical elements for high optical performance across the zoom range.

Great deal versus Sony/Zeiss

Verified Purchase:Yes
there are lots of reviews out there for this lens on reputable sites, so i will just add my approval to what they mostly say--for what you pay this is a nice lens. Obviously it isn't super-crisp crisp Zeiss glass--whether by Zeiss itself or by Sony to Zeiss specs--but it isn't that soft and really does the job well. My purchase was an especially good deal as I bought it on Black Friday as part of a package but was then able to return the rest of the package for an adjusted refund. Thanks, local Best Buy, for making it a painless process. A great addition for my NEX-6, soon to be an a6000

This Sony BDPS6500 Blu-ray player features built-in Wi-Fi. To build a complete 3D home theater system, we recommend you purchase a 3D TV, 3D glasses designed for the TV, high-speed HDMI cable and an A/V receiver that is compatible with 3D products.
Bask in a fresh breeze, instead of steaming in the heat with this Frigidaire FFRE1233S1 air conditioner, which features up to 12,000 BTUs of cooling power. Save energy by programming the air conditioner to turn on only when you need it using the 24-hour timer.
can u turn this unit on manually?
Yes, there is a touch screen on the front of the unit, just like on your typical microwave or dishwasher

Denon HEOS 1 Portable Wireless Speaker: Get the party started with streaming audio or listen to your favorite tunes by the pool with this portable speaker. Charging your USB devices and wired connectivity are quick and easy, thanks to the USB port.
Is setup difficult?
We have had no setup issues whatsoever. Own two first gen Heos 1 and a first gen Heos 5. Setup was a breeze, the app has been stable, and we can easily play from Rhapsody account and what we have on our iOS devices. There is not a Windows 10 app for the Heos, which is a bit of a bummer, but there are workarounds that you can explore to, say, run a line into the speaker from your headphone jack on a laptop. Here in stormy Indiana we often have had to unplug these from the wall (thunderstorms), but they come right back up to get on our wifi network and sync with our devices and the Heos app
