Do you ever think about the fact that it's while Bilbo "chosen for the lucky number" Baggins is still expelled from the Company that everything sucks and falls to shit? So there's only thirteen members of the Company at that point. An unlucky number without their lucky hobbit, and all the Durins die.

Umm... not to attack Thranduil because I like him and understand his reasons but I read the Hobbit and from the dwarves and Bilbo's point of view he is painted as a villain because he hinders their quest. But yea by Elven standards he is a great king.
This is true but as you said, the novel is written from Bilbo's perspective, and Bilbo is far from an omniscient narrator. Thus, there is a great deal of backstory and insight into Thranduil's intentions that the reader is not privy to because Bilbo is not privy to it.
However, the films are delving more into the appendices and other various textual sources not tapped in the Hobbit novel itself because quite frankly, it's meant to be a kids' book (and it wasn't even directly related to the LotR arc when it was first published; Tolkien went back later and added the One Ring to Bilbo's journey before republishing it).
There's a lot more information being made apparent to the fandom at large nowadays. So while it's admittedly been expanded upon and explored moreso within the roleplaying community, I think it's important to recognize that it's out there and it doesn't take more than a bit of Googling to find—if it even requires that much.
Friendly reminder that Sigyn is not a fighter or a warrior and she doesn't need to become one in order to make her a valuable, worthy, or strong character. ★~(◡‿◕✿)
Have I ever talked about how much I love the whole concept of Éowyn and Dernhelm as one in the same person?
Like look at this beautiful quote showing how Éowyn is Dernhelm and Dernhelm is Éowyn and she's one coin with two sides working together to make up a whole fierce shieldmaiden of Rohan.
"...the helm of her secrecy had fallen from her, and her bright hair, released from its bonds, gleamed with pale gold upon her shoulders. Her eyes grey as the sea were hard and fell, and yet tears were on her cheek. A sword was in her hand, and she raised her shield against the horror of her enemy's eyes. Éowyn it was, and Dernhelm also."
Seriously how have I never taken the time to gush about this concept?
It encompasses the idea that Éowyn can be a warrior and a maiden at the same time and doesn't have to sacrifice her femininity to be fierce and strong because her femininity is as much a part of what makes her fierce and strong as her ability to take up a sword and fight alongside the men.
And golly I just really do love that whole thing a lot.
