The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug	comment	The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug is the second film in the three-part cinematic adaptation of J.R.R Tolkien's classic fantasy novel The Hobbit, directed by Peter Jackson and adapted for the screen by Jackson and Guillermo del Toro. It was released in December 2013.Picking up where the first film left off, we find the company running from Azog, who has nearly caught up again after the eagles came to their rescue. They seek refuge in the home of the skin-changer Beorn, then take off towards the forest of Mirkwood. Gandalf is forced to part ways with them to investigate the supposed Necromancer, and without him they encounter one obstacle after another, including spiders, elves, orcs and men. And as the Lonely Mountain looms closer, so does the threat of their greatest enemy — the dragon Smaug.Followed by The Battle of the Five Armies.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_105d50b1	comment	Psychological Torment Zone: Mirkwood makes those that travel within suffer from hallucinations, distorting their senses and causing them to wander endlessly. In particular, when Bilbo looks down he sees his own feet walking backward, then looks back to see himself behind him.

Smaug, being a Faux Affably Evil narcissist, happily plays along with it, until he suddenly reveals that he knows Bilbo didn't come to confront him alone:

Cut to Laketown, where ominous rumbling from a mountain is audible and startles the residents. And an hour or so after the rumbling, fire and death come out of the mountain to destroy Laketown later that night . The movie is a lot more unsubtle with this imagery than the book was.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_17a969de	comment	No OSHA Compliance: The stairs in and leading up to the Tomb of the Ringwraiths are horrifically unsafe, barely wide enough for one man to walk on them and with no safety railing. Of course, nobody was ever expected to need to go in there once the doors were sealed, so this might be somewhat justified. The path to the hidden entrance to Erebor isn't much better, though as with other examples in the films that would make it easier to defend.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_18aff462	comment	Artistic License â€“ Biology: When the Company enter Erebor, they find piles of dwarf corpses who had been burnt by Smaug's fire 200 years ago, but all of the corpses are completely intact with blackened clothes, hair and skin. Evidently, Jackson intended them to look like the corpses of Romans excavated in Pompeii. What he doesn't realize is that all of those Pompeii victims are plaster casts — the Romans were burnt to death in the pyroclastic flow, their bodies were encased in ash, and then they decomposed inside the ash leaving a skeleton inside a hollow in the shape of their bodies. The only way to reconstruct the shape of their bodies was for archeologists to pour plaster into the hollow and remove the ash, but without the plaster they'd only be skeletons.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_19ebe383	type	Never Trust a Trailer
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_19ebe383	comment	Never Trust a Trailer: Trailers for the film build up the idea that Thranduil offers the dwarves aid, but they're unsure if they can trust him. Actually, Thranduil's offer for aid is met with the verbal equivalent of Thorin spitting in his face, after which they're imprisoned and escape. The exchange in the trailers where it seems they're discussing if they can trust Thranduil, they're actually discussing Bard. Also, there was a scene in the trailer in which a corrupted ThrÃ¡in ambushes Gandalf in what appears to be Dol Guldur, jumping him from above and fighting him. This scene doesn't happen in the theatrical cut of the film, although it is restored for the extended cut on home video. The scene at the end of the first trailer where Smaug rounds a corner and stares down Bilbo does happen, but Bilbo is wearing The One Ring at the time. Not that it helps anyway. It's worth noting that the context has changed too; the trailer made it seem like Bilbo hadn't met Smaug yet, and in the film, Smaug speaks during the sequence, whilst the trailer version of the shot has no speaking (in fact, Smaug grimaces as if he's about to cover Bilbo in fire).

While Bain is hiding the last black arrow, a large statue is shown prominently enough in the background that it is clearly supposed to be remembered when he or someone else comes to get it.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_23473ae7	type	Adaptation Expansion
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_23473ae7	comment	Adaptation Expansion: The trilogy includes various details (though partially somewhat embellished) from the appendixes of Lord of the Rings and from Unfinished Tales of NÃºmenor and Middle-Earth that were absent in the novel; like Thorin's meeting with Gandalf before the events of the book, the Elf-king of Mirkwood actually being named (Thranduil), and what Gandalf does after he leaves the company (he fights Sauron at Dol Guldur). The film adds several original characters, most notably Tauriel, who is put into a romantic subplot with both Legolas (who is not mentioned in the novel) and KÃli. Bard gets introduced to the plot much earlier on than he was in the book — where he shows up literally right before Smaug's about to attack Laketown — and his character and motivations are well established in preparation for the third film. Bard the bowman from the novel is also split into two characters here, Bard himself and Braga, the captain of the guard. Laketown and its residents in general are given detail well beyond the descriptions from the book. Laketown is developed into a poverty-stricken, third-world state, with several named inhabitants who have bigger parts. The Master of Laketown, and Laketown counselor Alfrid Lickspittle, are both unnamed minor characters in the book but have several scenes in the film. Thorin's greed and obsession with reclaiming the Arkenstone is played up far more in the film than it was in the book. Naturally this was done to establish Thorin jumping off the slippery slope in the next movie. Bilbo's time with Smaug is greatly expanded upon, including Thorin and the company making a valiant effort to take Smaug down while still within Erebor.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_26ac510e	type	Mythology Gag
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_26ac510e	comment	Mythology Gag: With elements from The Lord of the Rings books that weren't in the films: Hobbits are seen working and relaxing in The Prancing Pony Inn in Bree; in The Fellowship of the Ring Frodo & Co. are the only hobbits seen, although they do have hobbit-sized accommodations. Azog calls Gandalf "sharku(l)" which is translated as "wizard" but it also means "old man", which is further warped into "Sharky", which is what Saruman's posse calls him in "The Scouring of the Shire" in The Return of the King. The large, roundish statue near the High Fells seems to be a reference to the Wild Men who show up in Return of the King who guide the heroes to the Paths of the Dead. Or the statues of ancient "Pukel Men" that flank the entrance to Dunharrow proper. A few to the original Hobbit that aren't as important in the film: when trying to tiptoe away from Smaug while the dragon is still asleep, Bilbo is holding a golden cup, which was what he stole in his first trip into Erebor in the book. Golden coins later fall from Smaug's belly as he crosses over the Company, which were a major plot point in the original book. Before the Necromancer is revealed to be Sauron, he appears as an overbearing dark cloud. In The Return of the King book, this was the form Sauron took when the One Ring and his empire are destroyed.

Alfrid also sneaks a slug of the Master's brandy while his back is turned (or he was testing it for poison).

Here Thorin is shown as behaving much more appropriately in the face of Bombur's misfortune.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_3946634e	comment	In the middle of the film, Bilbo humanizes their host when the dwarves grumble about him by saying that "His name's Bard." Later, when Thorin is insisting that he will not risk their quest for the sake of one burglar, Balin reminds Thorin that "His name is Bilbo," giving Bilbo an identity and admonishing Thorin for his callous brushing off of Bilbo's fate. This is especially meaningful because of whom Balin is paraphrasing — the hobbit whom they once believed would likely be useless and only took on at Gandalf's insistence, has now become a valued member of the party, to the point where the wisest of the dwarves respects his advice.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_3aec9e5e	type	Properly Paranoid
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_3aec9e5e	comment	Properly Paranoid: Since Thorin trying to reclaim Erebor means inevitably trying to take on Smaug — a creature who, need we be reminded, completely destroyed two powerful kingdoms in a single morning — you can understand why Bard is iffy about the Dwarves' quest, even without the handy prophecy warning of doom. An argument can also be made for Thorin's refusal to deal with Thranduil, given that Thranduil has gone back on his word before, and shows a disturbing propensity towards using Exact Words. Smaug expected a pack of Dwarves to show up in Erebor eventually, even though eventually turned out to be decades. Bard fears for the safety of his children and his town since a nigh-unstoppable fire-breathing dragon could come at any time and destroy them all. By the end of the film, all his fears are coming true: Smaug is on the way — and, since he's behind bars, there's nothing he can do to save his children. Bard's youngest daughter Tilda, who looks about eight years old, doesn't help the matter by asking her dad if they're all going to die when Smaug is mentioned.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_4a2059bf	comment	Gold Fever: Smaug has this. He tells Bilbo in no uncertain terms that he will not suffer even a single coin of Erebor's treasure to be stolen from him. His gold lust is used against him when Thorin and company mesmerize him with an enormous and recently poured gold statue of ThrÃ³r that's still hot enough to melt and collapse on him. The beginnings of this seem to already be taking hold of Thorin's mind. He becomes much more belligerent and selfish as they approach Erebor, regularly mistreats or disregards Bilbo after arriving there, and is even willing to leave an injured KÃli behind in Laketown. All of Elrond's predictions about the line of Durin and gold madness are coming true. The Master of Laketown also has a bad case of this, willing to risk Smaug's wrath for a promise that the dwarves will share the wealth of Erebor with him. Notice a running theme, yet?

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_5a40d6a	type	Adaptation Distillation
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_5a40d6a	comment	Adaptation Distillation: As with the first film, many descriptive and transitional details are either condensed or removed outright: Beorn's role in the film is reduced, and the characters spend less time at his house before journeying on to Mirkwood. This would continue into the next film, with Beorn only appearing at the end of the battle and then at the dwarves' funeral, in both cases very briefly. The entire Mirkwood segment is shortened significantly. The journey appears to last much longer in the novel, where the company encounters more strange and creepy things prior to their run-in with the spiders. Most notable of these is when the company stumbles upon a party of feasting elves three different times, only for the elves to keep mysteriously disappearing. The fight with the spiders is also much longer in the novel, and ends differently. In the film, the elves make their debut by coming to the dwarves' rescue, whereas in the novel, Bilbo and the dwarves are eventually able to fend off the spiders on their own. This is also where Bilbo reveals the secret of his magic ring to the dwarves, which they never find out about in the films. In the novel, the elves capture and interrogate Thorin separately from the other dwarves, the rest of whom are captured and interrogated sometime later. Bilbo also spends at least a week at the Elvenking's palace, sneaking back out and then back in multiple times, before he comes up with a plan to free the dwarves. The film condenses this so that the dwarves are all captured at the same time, with only Thorin being interrogated, and their breakout from the palace also happens much sooner. After Bilbo sneaks into the mountain in the novel, he steals a gold cup from Smaug and takes it back outside. This causes Smaug to awaken and fly out from the mountain in search of the thief, while Bilbo and the dwarves retreat into the mountain. Smaug then returns to his original resting spot and lies in wait until Bilbo returns. After their encounter, Bilbo flees outside a second time, until he and the dwarves hastily rush back in to escape an impending attack from Smaug, who then destroys the secret passage before heading to attack Lake-town. In the film, Bilbo has only one audience with Smaug and does not steal a gold cup from him, and Bilbo does not come back out from Smaug's lair until after Smaug flies off to Lake-town.

Nice job waking up a huge, unstoppable killing machine and then massively pissing him off, not to mention letting it slip to this psychopath that the people of Laketown helped you and you care about them. Bilbo at least realizes just how badly they screwed up.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_5fbb8d8e	comment	Hollywood Density: Aside from the lack of convection, the film fails to correctly represent the behavior of molten gold: because it's very dense, it flows very slowly, so running it down a series of channels and filling up a giant statue mold would take hours, and its collapse probably several minutes, giving Smaug plenty of time to eat all the Dwarves or escape. The filmmakers managed to avoid a similar error with the golden coins because they had made thousands of prop coins and were able to pile them up to see how they behaved; however, they were unable to find a reference for molten gold. And also because it's very dense, Smaug wouldn't be able to submerge in it anyway.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_603f1a80	type	Pragmatic Adaptation
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_603f1a80	comment	Pragmatic Adaptation: After four films without any talking animals whatsoever — not even the Eagles — it would have been a bit odd for the giant spiders to suddenly start having conversations with each other out of the blue. The film solves this by letting Bilbo understand their Black Speech, but only when he's actually wearing the Ring. Having Bilbo remain in the grey half-world of the Ring during his scenes with Smaug would have been a real pain, so Bilbo takes it off almost at once when Smaug tracks him by scent and stays visible for much of their confrontation. In the book, Smaug has a gap in the golden armour over his heart for pretty much no reason. (Well, aside from it being a Shout-Out to Fafnir, a dragon from Norse legend upon which Smaug was heavily based.) Thus, in this version, the gap comes from one of Girion's ballista bolts hitting its mark and breaking off some of the armour when he tried to kill Smaug, and moreover bringing it full circle for when Bard will ultimately finish the job his ancestor started. Incidentally, having Bard already know about the gap cuts out the need for an "oh, I can understand this thrush" moment as well, keeping the no-talking animal theme alive and kicking. Though technically, he only heard a rumor about the gap — only Bilbo can confirm and tell where it is. Also in the book, the black arrow with which Bard kills Smaug was merely a very well-made normal arrow (forged by the Dwarves of Erebor) that was shot from a normal longbow. Keeping to that would have looked absolutely ridiculous; even with the gap in Smaug's armour, expecting a creature his size to die from being shot in the heart with a normal arrow would be like expecting a human to get stabbed to death with one poke from a drawing pin. Instead, Bard's black arrow is not unique, but rather the last of a series of harpoon-sized Dwarven missiles designed to be shot from a specially designed crossbow/ballista, all the better to provide the size and force needed to be an effective anti-dragon weapon.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_62434fe2	comment	Sanity Slippage: Thorin is more callous and becomes more obsessed with claiming Erebor than in the first film, and he becomes more ruthless the closer they advance their goal: While imprisoned in Thranduil's court, he refuses the deal Thranduil offers to them and scorns him out of a personal grudge, dooming the expedition to imprisonment from which they only escape because of Bilbo's help. He persuades the corrupt Master of Laketown to provide them with gear and supplies in exchange for Erebor's gold, fully aware of and not seeming to care about the danger that Smaug poses to the town and its people. He leaves the wounded KÃli behind in Laketown (which in itself is understandable, since they don't have time to wait for him to heal), explicitly stating that even his own family comes second to the quest. After Smaug awakens, he's willing to risk "The Burglar"'s life rather than his own, and Balin has to call him out before he changes his mind. And lastly, after finding out that Bilbo hasn't found the Arkenstone, he holds him at swordpoint to prevent him from escaping, allowing the whole expedition to rush into Smaug's lair to be trapped instead of escaping to the surface. Bilbo himself seems to show signs of this as well, considering his behavior begins to slowly but surely change under the influence of the One Ring, most notably in Mirkwood. A spider barely grazes the Ring after Bilbo drops it, and he hacks it to pieces before hissing "Mine!" He doesn't seem too far gone yet — he has the sense to look completely horrified afterward.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_6b05b601	comment	Jerkass Has a Point: It wasn't exactly smart of Thorin to turn down Thranduil's deal without a second thought, considering said deal was pretty much their only way out of the Wood Elf Kingdom, but he has a very valid reason not to trust the king. He rightly points out that Thranduil didn't aid them against Smaug when he attacked them — which is understandable if cold — but he also turned his back on the refugees and refused to help them. Thranduil betrayed their trust; why should Thorin trust him now? Thranduil in turn has a point about Thorin: he warned Thorin's grandfather about his greed, which ThrÃ³r ignored to his own peril. Among other things, ThrÃ³r's greed caused him to build the treasure hoard that attracted Smaug, and on a more personal note, he denied Thranduil a piece of jewelry that was rightfully his (one belonging to Thranduil's dead wife). Thranduil sees Thorin as having the same greed as his grandfather; the Dragon Sickness begins to take effect in Thorin less than a movie later. Smaug taunts Bilbo with the idea that Thorin merely hired him to find the Arkenstone, and considers him expendable. A few minutes later, Bilbo sees that there may be an element of truth to this.

This is especially meaningful because of whom Balin is paraphrasing — the hobbit whom they once believed would likely be useless and only took on at Gandalf's insistence, has now become a valued member of the party, to the point where the wisest of the dwarves respects his advice. Also, when Legolas took Thorin's Elvish blade, he called him a liar and a thief. Those same words were used by Smaug to Bilbo.

In his rage, he changes from a cunning strategist and master manipulator into a wild dog, running after whoever taunts him first. Granted it was probably because he didn't expect that they could hurt him. The dwarfs tell Bilbo that the Arkenstone is a "large, white jewel." As he soon discovers, and Thranduil brought up earlier in the film, that doesn't narrow it down very much. Bilbo doesn't wear the ring the entire time in Smaug's chamber (he does use it, but takes it off eventually). He's already used its powers extensively and is fully aware of the help it was against the elves, but against a dragon — even when the dragon is obviously intent on getting him — he doesn't use it to its full potential. Though to be fair, this may be because he's beginning to sense the ring's evil and is afraid that it will make things worse, not to mention Smaug by that point demonstrated expertly that Bilbo might be invisible but Smaug can smell him, hear him, and sense the air move around when Bilbo does. Invisibility is no real help at that point.

Balin, Ã“in, and Ori also survive The Hobbit trilogy since Gimli mentions that the former rules Moria at the time of FOTR and the books state that the latter two joined him. Consequently, The Hobbit films try not to have too much of the "will-they-survive" kind of drama involving these characters, though sometimes it trusts that the viewers will temporarily forget Bilbo's guaranteed survival and throw him into life-or-death struggles for drama anyways. The same can also apply to several other Company members who are mentioned throughout Tolkien's post-Hobbit works. Bombur is stated to be incredibly fat and well into old age in Erebor by the time The Lord of the Rings takes place, Dwalin lived well into the Fourth Age and died at a very venerable 340-years-old, GlÃ³in told Frodo in Rivendell that Bofur and Bifur were still alive and living in Erebor, and Bard the Bowman and his children (namely Bain) live to rebuild and rule the restored city of Dale. Both Dori and Nori are stated to be very rich and alive during the War of the Ring.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_7831c048	type	So Much for Stealth
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_7831c048	comment	So Much for Stealth: Done as a Running Gag — it's clear no-one quite gets the whole "burglar" business. Bilbo has to tell the dwarves to shut up while he's busting them out of their cells. When the dwarves are robbing Laketown's armory, KÃli insists on being fine about carrying a huge pile of clangy weapons despite being weakened by the poison arrow, causing him to end up falling down the stairs with an appropriate racket. This brings the guards down on them right quick. Gandalf is sneaking across the bridge into the Necromancer's lair when Radagast the Brown shouts that it might be a trap. When Bilbo is searching for the Arkenstone, he finds a large stone and then tosses it aside into the gold, and then shushes it. Bilbo ends up starting a gold slide that exposes Smaug's eye. Then he tries sneaking away as quietly as possible, but given what he's walking through, the noise ends up waking Smaug anyway.

He makes much of his living from smuggling — quite a step down in the world. His three children, Sigrid, Bain, and Tilda, count as well. They're heirs to one of the wealthiest kingdoms in all of Middle-Earth, but most of their childhood has been spent in poverty and they're definitely struggling when the dwarves arrive in Laketown. While this seems to bother them somewhat, they all consider being murdered by a dragon to be a worse fate.

Sadly, when they get there, they find that the exit to the guardhouse was blocked off, and even worse, the entire room is filled with the mummified corpses of the last Dwarves left behind in Erebor, who died after retreating there from starvation and suffocation. Balin, disheartened by this discovery, starts commenting on how they might be able to last a few days at best, only for Thorin to interrupt, "No. I will not die like this. Cowering. Clawing for breath." He then instructs his True Companions to split up and lure Smaug into Erebor's old forges so they can try to kill the dragon: "If this is to end in fire, then we will all burn together!" (Of course, those who have read the books know that the Dwarves won't succeed at killing Smaug this way.)

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_8d0785d5	comment	Didn't Think This Through: Once Thorin and company get into Erebor, they all realize that they will most likely die at the hands (and flames) of Smaug because they didn't even have a plan to defeat him. Thorin, when he sends Bilbo in to find the Arkenstone: it seemingly never occurred to him that Bilbo would have to search an area at least equal to a city block, with not much more to go on than "a large white gem, you'll know it when you see it." Bilbo does know it the moment he sees the Arkenstone, but that doesn't help him find it in the first place. Likewise, the thought of using molten gold as a weapon against Smaug seems like a good idea... until you realize this is a creature whose insides can withstand the obscene power of dragon fire, comparable in heat to Mount Doom itself. All they do is make him angry. Very, very angry. During the barrel escape scene, you can see Bilbo thinking this once the trap door closes after the others. Also averted. In the original book, the dwarves had no real plan beyond "get to the Mountain, have the burglar yoink the treasure." Smaug rightfully points out that it would take an incredible amount of time to steal the treasure one handful at a time, he would surely notice them before they finished, and even if they pulled it off they would still have a mountain of treasure in the middle of the wilderness with no real way getting it anywhere they could spend it. In the film, however, they are solely after the Arkenstone to use it to make the other dwarf lords honor their oaths and attack Smaug.

Using Indy Ploy and his memory of the place, Thorin tricks Smaug into lighting the furnaces of the Dwarven forges in order to pour molten gold into a statue cast. He then taunts Smaug towards the cast, delivering his curses and speech of revenge on the worm before ordering the dwarves to break off the cast, revealing a golden statue ThrÃ³r himself, the very same king that Smaug took Erebor from. Smaug, thanks to his greed, is awed and distracted by its golden aura before the still-hot statue collapses on him, burning and drowning Smaug in a sea of molten gold he coveted so greedily. Unfortunately for Thorin, Smaug is still alive and all of that burning gold just makes him more angry and determined to destroy Lake-town.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_957e5fc2	comment	Villainous Breakdown: Smaug has a minor one after Bilbo evades him and the dwarves throw numerous insults at him. While he chases them around Erebor, heavy objects are dropped on Smaug's head, he's sprayed with water in the middle of breathing fire, and then he's finally lured to a gigantic golden statue that melts instantaneously and almost succeeds in drowning him. All of this ultimately leads to him having a very fiery outburst of anger before deciding to burn Laketown rather than attempt to kill Thorin and the others.

The statue and Thorin share the exact same profile, hinting that all may not go as desired for the heir of Durin. The last line of the Laketown Prophecy ("And the lake will shine and burn...") is said while the waters of the lake are afire from the light of the setting sun, giving us a taste of the city's potential destruction by Smaug. Smaug tells Bilbo that no blade can pierce his scales. The very next shot is of Bard carrying a Black Arrow.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_a1b141f4	comment	My God, What Have I Done?: A brief but chilling one with Bilbo in Mirkwood. In the course of the battle with the spiders, he drops the One Ring. When he scrambles down to the forest floor to look for it, he sees a much smaller spiderling touching it with one of its legs. Instead of distracting it, which is what he would usually do, he flies into an Unstoppable Rage and slaughters it ruthlessly before picking up the Ring, holding it up to the dead spider and hissing "Mine!" Then he sits back and suddenly realizes what he's done and ends up gazing at the Ring and the scene in horror for a good while before pocketing it again. Said pretty much word for word at the end of the film, as Bilbo helplessly watches Smaug fly off to destroy Laketown: "What have we done?"

Not that it helps anyway. It's worth noting that the context has changed too; the trailer made it seem like Bilbo hadn't met Smaug yet, and in the film, Smaug speaks during the sequence, whilst the trailer version of the shot has no speaking (in fact, Smaug grimaces as if he's about to cover Bilbo in fire).

After all, the last time the Wood Elves fought him, Thranduil's father, Oropher, paid the ultimate price, and only about a third of the army came back. Legolas when he realizes Tauriel went out into the forest alone just as Thranduil is about to seal the borders of his kingdom. The Dwarves when Alfrid orders the barrels of fish they're hiding in thrown overboard. Bilbo when he sees part of Smaug's tail peeking out from under the gold and realizes just how big Smaug is. Bilbo when he unconsciously takes off the Ring and realizes that he's just revealed himself to the dragon. "There you are!''" Bilbo and the Dwarves are crossing an exposed bridge when a coin drops in front of them. They look up to see Smaug silently passing overhead. Gandalf when he realizes Sauron is about to overwhelm him, and a few seconds later when he watches Sauron dissolve his staff. In the extended edition, Gandalf gets another when he finds ThrÃ¡in and learns the ring he had, the last of the Dwarven Rings, was taken by Azog. He also gets one before this at the borders of Mirkwood, when he finds an Elven statue defaced with graffiti of the Eye of Sauron.

His flames frequently come within inches of Bilbo and the Dwarves, but they aren't particularly hampered by it. In the finale, the dwarves trick Smaug into firing up a giant forge that melts down tons of gold into running liquid, and then spend extended amounts of time in its immediate vicinity without the slightest sign of discomfort. Thorin even sails the molten metal in a wheelbarrow! Conversely, there are other times when Smaug's fire-breath turns nearby metal and stone extremely hot, where he purposefully tries to fry the protagonists this way when they're in an enclosed space. Other times, the combination of fire-breath and the extremely high temperature of the molten gold should cook Bilbo and the dwarves alive, but doesn't. Despite this being a universe where magic is known to exist, not even a Hand Wave is presented, and the audience is left to assume A Wizard Did It.

But the other dwarf nations will only undertake a war that risky for another king, which Thorin isn't without the Arkenstone. When ThrÃ³r declared the Arkenstone to be the King's Jewel, he ended up making it impossible for anyone to be crowned king without it, and Thorin can't get to the Arkenstone without defeating Smaug. Gandalf suggests that he Take a Third Option: hire a burglar to steal back the Arkenstone for him, thus gaining him the authority to call the other dwarves to war.

The Dwarves show great skill with throwing their weapons during the barrel escape, and Bard shoots a rock out of KÃli's hand without injuring him. Then there's his ancestor, Girion. While he "missed the mark" in the fight with Smaug, the flashback shows that each of his shots at the very least glanced off Smaug's hide while he was in flight. The crowner however is probably Tauriel, who shoots an orc arrow out of the air with her own arrow.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_dbb414ed	comment	Gold melts at 1064Â°C/1948Â°F. Due to black body radiation, a substance of this temperature will glow orange, regardless of the color of the material. It would not look like a gold-colored liquid. Also, while even a cast-iron wheelbarrow would easily float on molten gold just as depicted (gold is almost 4 times more dense than iron, and iron doesn't melt until 1538Â°C/2800Â°F), all metals (including iron) are VERY good conductors of heat. This would result in the wheelbarrow rapidly heating up to the same temperature as the molten gold, causing it to also glow orange, and frying the dwarf inside very quickly. This is, after all, exactly how stoves and frying pans work, and the wheelbarrow would work just like a cast iron pan (only more so because the molten gold is hotter than a typical stove, and convection currents in liquid also transfer heat much more efficiently than solid heating elements). Molten gold is also HEAVY (4 times heavier than iron). You wouldn't have to worry about being burned by excessive temperature or suffocated. You would outright be crushed. Given this is a universe where magic is known to exist, you would expect at least a Hand Wave, but there is none, leaving the audience to assume A Wizard Did It. It's ironic that Jackson would forget what molten gold looks like, considering that the very first shot of The Fellowship of the Ring depicts molten gold: "It began with the forging of the Great Rings..."

Unfortunately, when the classic "Wilhelm" is used by ThrÃ¡in, just before he is engulfed by Sauron, it breaks any sense of drama in what was up to that point a very upsetting, dramatic scene. And the other one? Used when the dwarves trip a Laketown guard.

Is Serious Business: When kind Cloudcuckoolander Radagast hardly makes any quips, and his eyes lose their playful glint, you know that the Necromancer is serious business indeed. And when the friendly, kind-hearted, gentle, and polite Hobbit of the group goes completely mental on a creature that just happened to get close to his ring, something is clearly ten kinds of not quite right. In the extended edition, Gandalf gets one. He's usually confident and cool-headed, but when he tries to negotiate with Beorn he looks really nervous, probably to show that Beorn is, indeed, very dangerous. Note that this scene is played completely differently in the book, where he is just as confident as usual.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_f818b637	type	Dude, Where's My Respect?
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_f818b637	comment	Dude, Where's My Respect?: Despite warming up to Bilbo in the first film, and also despite Bilbo's enormous help in getting to Erebor, Thorin is back to treating him like garbage. Lampshaded by Balin and Smaug, of all characters. Though he clearly has more faith in him than he did previously, trusting him to rescue them from the elves. His attitude is less that Bilbo is a useless encumbrance, as in the first movie, but that one life is less important than their quest. Both Thorin and the Master of Laketown blame Lord Girion for not managing to kill Smaug and hold Bard in contempt for his ancestor's failure. Which is a bit rich, considering Smaug probably wouldn't have attacked Dale and Erebor in the first place if Thorin's grandfather hadn't been so greedy, and Thorin, with all his dwarves, didn't manage to so much as scratch Smaug, either. Plus, while Girion was pledged to defend Dale, it's much harder to do so when you throw a dragon into the mix, which clearly nobody had prepared for, and he died trying to bring Smaug down. And anyway, Girion managed to pave the way for Bard's opportunity to finally kill Smaug.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_fa686f29	comment	Weird Moon: This movie has a lunar phase error; in the movie, as in the book, "Durin's Day" is when the sun and the last full moon of autumn are in the sky together. But in the movie, "the last light of Durin's Day" turns out to be not that of the setting sun, but that of the moon. This is impossible as a full moon at sunset can only be a rising moon, hence the moon would be around the other side of the mountain and couldn't illuminate the keyhole. In the book, it is only specified as the "last moon of autumn", and described as a crescent. In the movie, it is also a visible crescent moon, which can be in the same part of the sky as the setting sun.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_fc225bec	type	Artistic License – Physics
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug / int_fc225bec	comment	Artistic License â€“ Physics: While the dwarves manage to get through the rapids in the open barrels, in real life the barrels probably would have filled with water and sunk very early on. Not to mention the likelihood of the barrels being destroyed or ruined by hitting rocks. Much like Scrooge McDuck, landing and falling on all those coins, hard and repeatedly, would have done poor Bilbo no favors whatsoever. Gold melts at 1064Â°C/1948Â°F. Due to black body radiation, a substance of this temperature will glow orange, regardless of the color of the material. It would not look like a gold-colored liquid. Also, while even a cast-iron wheelbarrow would easily float on molten gold just as depicted (gold is almost 4 times more dense than iron, and iron doesn't melt until 1538Â°C/2800Â°F), all metals (including iron) are VERY good conductors of heat. This would result in the wheelbarrow rapidly heating up to the same temperature as the molten gold, causing it to also glow orange, and frying the dwarf inside very quickly. This is, after all, exactly how stoves and frying pans work, and the wheelbarrow would work just like a cast iron pan (only more so because the molten gold is hotter than a typical stove, and convection currents in liquid also transfer heat much more efficiently than solid heating elements). Molten gold is also HEAVY (4 times heavier than iron). You wouldn't have to worry about being burned by excessive temperature or suffocated. You would outright be crushed. Given this is a universe where magic is known to exist, you would expect at least a Hand Wave, but there is none, leaving the audience to assume A Wizard Did It. It's ironic that Jackson would forget what molten gold looks like, considering that the very first shot of The Fellowship of the Ring depicts molten gold: "It began with the forging of the Great Rings..."
