"Roman style Phalanx tactics"

Could someone reword this more clearly? I haven't seen the film, but I do know the phalanx isn't Roman in origin. Are we talking about a regular phalanx, a specifically Roman variation of it, or a different Roman formation entirely?

Note to all: I don't participate in the forums here unless something much more important than TV Tropes content is at stake.

Anybody want to change it to The Hobbit instead of T He Hobbit? It just looks a bit odd.

It is The Hobbit. You just got there from a funky link.

I think the page should be split to Film.The Hobbit An Unexpected Journey and Film.The Hobbit The Desolation Of Smaug, with Film.The Hobbit becoming a disambig page. In addition to making the main pages easier to navigate, it will also allow us to create subpages for the individual films, and segregate them from the book and animated adaptation.

I can do it myself, I just don't want to act unilaterally.

I'm for this. There are now so many folders on this page that it's getting harder to navigate, not easier. Although this page should keep general tropes as well as being a disambig.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

I was going to say it would be a pain to pick the general tropes out of the film tropes, but that's already done, so nevermind. I'm for keeping the general tropes on the page.

So is there anybody against the split?

Where will Desolation of Smaug tropes go? On this page or on a different one?

On this page, but I think we should separate the tropes into folders by movie.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

We ought to come to a final decision about capitalising the race names. Generally it's not done in English these days but Tolkien himself used it (somewhat inconsistently at times but no matter) and the films seem to be following suit.

Does it matter? If an example says "hobbit" or "Hobbit" in the middle of a sentence, we can understand it either way. This is TV Tropes, not Wikipedia.

No it's not, but the aim is still to create pages that are consistent.

Adaptational Timeline Change? (In the Film page.) Is that supposed to be potholed somewhere?

There is a YKTTW by that title, but it looks like the example was added prematurely.
