we've probably seen several thousand zombie kills so far, that i don't even care how they do it, and when they get too creative, i simply turn away anyways. How they killed the zombies is meaningless, and progresses nothing regarding the plot.
So if they want to get creative in how they show zombies dying fine, adds little to nothing for me. there were a ton of holes that i perceived in that whole scene on how they escaped what seemed like too many zombies to survive. when i think of the story as a book report, that all just reads in my mind as "and then they managed to somehow escape with this new stranger...". At the end of the day, that seems plausible and the plot continues on.
That's sort of my view on that hobbit clip too, though i think that's a much more guilty of what you're complaining about. it was absolutely ridiculous no doubt, but again, the "realism" of that scene (or others like it) weren't the primary reason the hobbit movies sucked (in my opinion obviously)
