The Hobbit is a style very different from modern film. It is a classic read-aloud tale, and the tougher stuff, the more adult stuff, is tossed off in one-liners, leaving it to the kids' limited imagination to deal with.
A film leaves little to the imagination. So far we've had many scenes expanded from how they appeared in the book. No doubt this will be as well.
Interesting to know that that one small sentence was still rather shocking to a kid. Another kid told me once (of her reading of Inkheart) that reading (or listening to) the book is different from seeing the film. She could imagine as far as her experience (and safety zone) allowed in the book. Not so much with a film.
I think Fili and Kili will definitely add weight to the battle. One reason for their character design is to show their youth, and to connect them with the younger audience, I think.
Go outside and play...
