    There's something incredibly more terrifying when a villain has proper manners and a polite manner of speaking. Yelling can be intimidating but having a sinister calmness and confidence is much more frightening.

      The deep lush baritone voice on Smaug was the icing on the cake. The perfect blend of both fear and yet a regal and majestic beast of a dragon. Smaug was the best thing to come out of the Hobbit movies.

    I like that Smaug seems to have an element of loneliness to him. He actively engaged in a conversation with Bilbo, who was probably the first sentient being he'd spoken to in years, even if he ultimately intended to kill him in the end. It's like a cat playing with a mouse. Smaug was entertaining himself, which is why he didn't fry Bilbo then and there.

    Smaug’s sheer scale was perfectly captured. When reading the books you know he’s big, but it’s another thing to see it so perfectly represented on screen. This scene makes you truly believe he is the most terrifying creature you could possibly fight against. His presence exudes a hopelessness that most normal people would feel in Bilbo’s position. How could any man hope to stand against Smaug the chiefest of calamities? This, for me, reaffirmed why dragons are so terrifying as a concept.

      Edit: I realize small house is a relative measure depending which country/culture you come from, take a US house in this case. We don't really know the exact measures bc Tolkien never told 'em, we can only deduce based on his head size aproximately.

      @@Laesis Two sides, same coin. He'd enjoy the look of Smaug, and the feel of his presence. And yet, hate the finer points in the film (Legolas and the Dwarf/Elf romance plot), because they botched most of the story by adding/reworking/removing certain scenes and passages from the book to film. He'd still most likely enjoy where the movie went, as, I'm sure Sir Christopher Lee didn't hate any portion (or, what was used and given to make it more adaptable and believeable) of LoTR/The Hobbit films he was in with them, so long as they still were close to the original source material, and the fact that Sir Christopher Lee was old friends with Tolkien, so, he'd at least have the very idea of what needed to be put to film from book to make it believeable. So, in a way, yes. I do believe that Tolkien would have loved what the movie looked liked, if he were alive today, and adapted from his book. But also point out all the more reason to read his books first and foremost, as film can, and will, tend to go with the more "Modern" approach to things, and cause contradictions from the book that will confuse the reader and audience of both mediums.
      As far as I'd at least guess to what he'd say, overall, toward this type of thing.

    If you’ve read the book, you’ll know that every word that comes out of Bilbo’s mouth is for a good reason-it’s explained that dragons love riddles (not unlike Gollum, but they aren’t as blatant about it), that’s why he calls himself “Luck-Wearer,” and “Barrel-Rider”-so Smaug will waste time trying to figure out what it means. He even goes to the extent to assume that Bilbo’s pony was named “Barrel.” Every single sentence that comes out of his mouth feels like the moving of a chess piece. Unfortunately, in the movie, Bilbo survives by sheer luck.

      Well Smaug the great hasn't always been cool looking, I was a small little wyvern once
      Now I know I can be happy as a king, cause in the mountain I rule yeah, and did your dwarf friends say find the mountains heart, go get it from Smaugs bedside, I need three words to tear your friendship all apart, yeah Thorin lied
      I'd rather be shiny, like the silmarils that the Valar tried to wreck, what a trek to get all this shiny, I will sparkle like an elven woman's neck, wait a sec, don't you know, dwarves are dumb dumb dumb, they chase dragon hordes that glitter, beginners, oh, and yeah they'll come come come to the brightest stone that glitters, hmm dwarf diner
      I just love free food, and you look like pre food
      Hey, slow slug! We're back, yeah, IT'S DWARFING TIME!
      What do ya say little buddies? Giant Dwarf, coming up! FOR EREBOR!...FOR EREBOR...ahhhh!(falling down giant shaft)
      Well well well, little Thorins having trouble with his turn, you little semi dwarven mini king, ouch, what a terrible performance, get the burn(get it?), you don't shield it like you used to man, and yet I have to give you credit for my start, and your dwarf crew on the outside, for just like you I made this place a work of art, I'll never die, I can't, I'm too shiny, watch me dazzle like a diamond in the rough, strut my stuff, my stuff is so shiny, send your armies but they'll never be enough, my scales are tough, Thorin man, you could try try try, but you can't expect a dwarven snake, to beat a fire drake(look it up), you will fry fry fry, now it's time for me rip apart, your dwarven heart
      Far from the dwarves and their lands with you chasing the throne with this human, you made to come steal here
      You tried to be tough, but your party's just not strong enough
      Dwarfy, now it's time to torch your hiney, ever seen someone so shiny, soak it in cause its the last you'll ever see, c'est la vie mon ami, I'm so shiny, now I'll eat you so prepare your final plea, just for me, you'll never be quite as shiny, you wish you had all this, shiiineeeeeyy!
      Hey, we got something shiny for ya!

    So of course after I read the books I dreamed of this scene. And when this trilogy was announced I could NOT wait to see him.
    Truly- my expectations were utterly exceeded with his enormity in theaters.

      Yep, the book states that he was intimately familiar with every single item in the hoard. He's had 60 years alone with his treasure here, and 150 in the book. Bilbo stole a single cup while Smaug was asleep, he woke up, and he immediately knew it was gone.
      Detecting the Ring's presence makes less sense. But I guess if he can tell that Sauron is making a move when he's been holed up in the mountain, he might just have some sense for evil stuff.

    "I am almost tempted to let you take it. *staring at the Arkenstone and back to Bilbo*
    If only to see Oakenshield suffer, watch it destroy him, watch it corrupt his heart, and drive him *MAD* ."
    The best part about this line is that Bilbo saw that Smaug was right in the end. It was so truthful that Bilbo saw it too terrifying to be true.

      @@blair5475 In Tolkien's mythos, dragons who brood upon treasure for a long time corrupt it with dragon sickness essentially excentuating the greed of those who have possession of the treasure. Thorin was driven mad by his greed for the wealth of Erebor and the Arkenstone that he would not give any of it up regardless of the reason.

    a big reason so many people seem to agree that a calmer, more urbane and even polite enemy is more intense than one that's yelling and screaming and swearing all the time is probably because that's how it can often be with the _really_ dangerous figures.
    at least in my experience, the most dangerous people you'll meet are the ones who know they don't have to prove they're threatening, since they know it so well. it's a _confidence_ you can feel sometimes, and it can truly be eerie.
    also, it suggests this is an _intelligent_ mind you're dealing with, and intelligence met with nearly unstoppable strength is a _true_ adversary to fear.
    think about it like this: the big cats in the jungle aren't running around roaring all the time. the only ones who do that are the social cats like lions, and that's only too _Each other._
    calmness means confidence, and confidence means confidence in one's ability to survive and win. and that's scary. that's a really effective thing to do with your villain. I agree, comment section!
    (also it's just less COMMON. all the big dogs these days scream and swear, it seems. or in video games you get psychopaths who enjoy being evil to the degree where it's just obnoxious. Hannibal Lector was frightening because he had nothing to prove to anybody. Dark Knight Joker too. Thanos too.)

      @J R He also comments that Bilbo's pony, which he can smell on Bilbo, might have been barrel shaped, just as a way of toying with Bilbo. The movie really lacks the depth of character to Smaug's conversation with Bilbo (who is invisible the entire time in the book, playing cat-and-mouse with Smaug). Smaug is curious and amused by this intruder in his domain, since it's a novelty (his first visitor in 170 years, and who in their right mind would walk into a dragon's lair?), and while he does enjoy Bilbo stroking his ego and brag about himself, he's mostly just toying with Bilbo until he can locate and murder him. It's not until he gets enough information out of Bilbo to realize the townsfolk helped him and the dwarves and Bilbo basically says "neener neener neener, can't get me" that Smaug flips his shit, tries to vaporize Bilbo with a blast of fire breath hot enough to melt iron, and then leaves the mountain for the first time in decades to go wreck the town out of spite. Smaug in the book is vain and exceedingly petty, but he is NOT stupid.

      I figure its because Smaug already got intel from the thrush that group of dwarves were coming to erebor riding barrels. So Bilbo also rode barrels meaning he came with them.
      Also Bilbo whispered "wheres the arkenstone" at the beginning. Smaug mustve heard it thus he knew why bilbo came despite him denying it in his face.

      I've always wanted to know how he knew that Thorin had taken the name "Oakenshield" since he didn't get that name until after Smaug had already taken Erebor. It makes sense if Smaug left the mountain on occasion and heard about the dwarven refugees, but not if he'd basically been sleeping for the last century or so. The book is a bit different but in the film it's just kind of confusing how he knew.
