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.
Indeed. The fact that he spoke so calmly but was probably filled with rage is amazing.
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.
Polite villains are great, it's why I like Freiza
Of course : it gives a feeling of overwhelming superiority, the kind that give him the right to decide at any moment if you live or die.
There's something scarier about a villain that walks when they chase you. Because there's a reason they don't have to run.
Smaug: "So thief, how do you choose to die?"
Me: "Old age."
Smaug: "Damn it."
that'd be worse... He'd terrify bilbo till he gets old
Traps him in the room to never leave
@@adityabhalekar3506 🤣🤣🤣good one!
With my belly full of wine and a girl's mouth around my cook
@@yeahbutontheotherhand Smaug: 😑
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.
It’s in Tolkien canon that dragons prefer to taunt and use riddles on their prey instead of killing right away, that is how Bard managed to kill him despite Smaug being able to attack on multiple occasions.
@@ceooftoast8118 I wonder if someone really did go in there just to see the mighty Smaug and not steal the treasure, whether they’d be eaten or whether he’d let them live.
@@r.k845 the lakemen didn’t believe there was a dragon inside, if I remember, so perhaps one went inside to inspect.
@@r.k845
Hed eat them. Because if you saw that vast amount of treasure how could you not want it? Plus he could really other humans to harass smaug.
Although Smaug would appreciate free snacks coming to him
@@r.k845 He'd kill them, sooner or later depending on how entertaining they were. Cat and mouse is a fun game, but it's only going to end one way for the mouse.
i love how he encourages Bilbo to keep on naming more titles for himself and then addresses him by the most ridiculous and degrading one: "Barrel-Rider"
It’s also what clued Smaug in on targeting Laketown, as it’s the only area he knows of where the people regularly work with barrels
because you would need to speak to dragons in riddles, trying to not name yourself. otherwise he would find out, dragons love this type of talk(from the book)
Also at least in the book that was the only name that piqued Smaugs interest because he couldn't immediately figure out where that title came from (he guessed that Bilbo might have a pony named Barrel)
I like dragons
I think they are lovely
To think behind the mask of this dragon is a grown man crawling across the floor yelling and growling like a meth addict.
Movie magic at is finest
@Deimonk Yeah Im aware of the cgi artists. Im talking about the acting. th-cam.com/video/9uNcu8zYixg/w-d-xo.html
@Deimonk Yeah and some of that mo cap footage was used for the head and mouth movements. The actor also was told to get into the character by being physical with it. Not to be just a voice.
@Deimonk but thank you for knowledge I was already aware of and overthinking a joke.

Smaug is a sigma male confirmed
Fun fact: Smaug was one of the smallest dragons in Middle Earth.
No wonder he loved the ego stroke from Bilbo
The book's Smaug yes, because originally he was no bigger than a small house. So that's why he was one of the smallest. The movie version is waaay bigger than what he actually was
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. And personally, a 30/40 meter long creature is still pretty big to me and definetely to Bilbo
@@fftere and he's a wyvern in this not a dragon
He was the hobbit of dragons lmao..... and he has a full blown napoleon complex

Martin Freeman was absolutely PERFECT for the role of Bilbo. His mannerisms and expressions are golden, I can’t get enough of it.
Agreed
He’s just a great actor, he can knock almost any role he’s given out of the park
I read it as Morgan Freeman and I was very confused for a second there.
Martin Freeman's thing with a lot of his characters is "I have no idea WTF is going on, but I'm just gonna go along with it and see how it all turns out."
So much better than Frodo to come - he just seems to have annoyed the shit out of everyone I know
The way the Eye of Sauron appears when Smaug said "precious" is amazing!
I love that

@The Anthropologist _Forensic hahaha so true :D
Yassss
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.
the funniest thing about Smaug was that he was actually pretty tiny compared the to older dragons in Lord of the Rings.
Drogon could never
I love smaug. Spoilers for the third movie!
Exactly the reason why its so damn disappointing that he gets one shotted in the first 15min of the third movie. I wouldve been way interested to see more of him than the whatever orc. Wasted potential for smaug
@@thatdudewelove8498at least some dragons were a lot larger, but I imagine he’s average sized.
he’s actually far larger here than he was in the book, by a considerable amount
What I liked about Smaug is how he knew everything. He knew Bilbo was together with the dwarfes, Thorin and his company spesifically, that Bilbo was sent there to retreive the Arkenstone for Thorin, that Thorin never meant to share anything with Bilbo. Heck he even knew Bilbo had the one ring.
I don't think he knew it was the One Ring, as he probably wouldn't even entertain Bilbo (Dragons were made by Morgoth and after his death, most swore themzelves to Sauron), but I reckon he suspected it was one of the Rings of Power.
Smaug was trying to get into Bilbo’s head
That’s how cool a dragon is
Those are movie additions. In the book Smaug didn’t know anything about the ring, and all he knew about the Dwarves and their plan is that he smelled dwarves in the area.
@@MerkhVision A shame.
All of the CGI budget for this movie went into the physics of those coins.
And smaug.
Actually the some of the coins were not CGI
Gombi Gurka
Man, you saying they gathered some real golden coins😆
that must’ve be expensive....
Portalmaster 9 not real golden coins. They were custom made
@Frank Castle There are parts of this movie where they didn't even bother to add bump maps to their models, so it looks like someone took the default box and added a texture on it.
Bilbo: “I only wanted to gaze upon your magnificence.”
Smaug: Ight imma flex.
Ha ho ha hee
Yol Riin Lask you’re about 4 months late. Who cares?
Smaug literally reacting the same way as some dude when a girl says "wow you got some muscles"
I loved when he said that 💙💙💯💯💯😂😂😂
Well, Dragons, you know, be just as vain as cats.
Just the irony in the fact that of all the extremely vast wealth in the Erebor treasury guarded by a literal dragon a tiny hobbit carries one small thing that greatly outvalues everything in that room including Smaug. Incredible writing.
holding the litteral soul and life force of the darklord himself
For those interested in the book version. This scene actually depicts Bilbo's second entrance into the chamber. Smaug was lying on top of the treasure (it turns out Smaug is a side-sleeper lol), not buried under it. Otherwise it would have been pitch black in there. The chamber was dimly lit by his red glow.
Bilbo took a cup first and left, while Smaug was still sleeping. He woke up when Bilbo went back to Balin and Smaug noticed the cup missing. Then Smaug went nuts trying to find the thief, and it was then Smaug left the mountain to go have a look outside. He almost caught the dwarves who were still waiting outside. They felt the rumbling; that's accurate. That's when they all went in. They still had the ponies with them; so Smaug suspected men were around. Smaug ate the ponies (a dragon's gotta eat).
After flying around all night Smaug went back to sleep in the treasure chamber. It's kind of funny the dwarves only then realized how this was a crazy idea. Smaug called Bilbo a thief when Bilbo came back. Smelled him instantly. That's when they have their talk, and much of the dialogue is more or less direct quotes, except that he thought the lake men were ultimately behind his visit, even though the ponies smelled like dwarves.
Bilbo threatened revenge, which Smaug found funny. Smaug showed off his bejeweled belly and Bilbo noticed the missing scale. He let it slip he was the thief and ran out. Smaug, incensed, stuck his head in the tunnel and gave Bilbo a pretty nasty burn.
This is not how Bilbo finds the Arkenstone. Smaug left to go smash the door to the tunnel and burn Laketown for helping him. Just before Bilbo convinced the dwarves to go into the tunnel.
Bilbo goes into the treasure chamber a third time while Smaug is away, but now it's pitch black. That's how he finds the Arkenstone glowing in the dark. The dwarves follow and they all walk out. Smaug never actually sees them. Everything else after this scene is made up.
I believe they improvised the rest of the scene to incorporate the more dramatic shots; such as Bilbo realising in horror as he'd waken up Smaug. Imo, Cumberbatch was the perfect actor to voice Smaug. Absolutely bewitching, cinematics at one of its finest. I just finished the book and everything you said was spot on. Thank you for typing the full summary!
Can confirm this is true. Read the book myself.
@@Lokitellus favourite character?
I think when he looked over at the treasure at least he noticed the cup missing which was why he kept calling bilbo a thief though the barrel rider talk was also there as well it’s never shown if bilbo put the cup away or into his coat but I assume he left that sh!t not risking his life over a freaking cup and it was changed a bit just a bit in this scene but the rest of it yes.
@@uniqueking7941 Bilbo showed the cup to the company and the dwarves became extremely excited about it and the other treasure. The book doesn't say what he did with it - that I remember. I could re-read the chapter some day.
I like that Smaug didn’t just immediately kill Bilbo because he’s probably been extremely lonely all these years and wanted someone to talk to for a minute. 💀💀
True. 🤭
Dragons do not get lonely. Smaug was just vain. He didnt kill him immediately only because in the book bilbo was invisible the entire time so smaug couldn't locate him.
@@iownyou4669 Well I like the way @Hunter Hooper thinks about Smaug. It might not be true, but I like the way they think of Smaug.
Not to mention Bilbo threw some nice compliments and flattery in the process..
Well, more that in the words of another famous Cumberbatch role Smaug was:
"Bored...
BORED!"
It's terrifying that even invisible, Smaug can still pinpoint almost exactly where you are
Whell.... In dnd terms.... Blindsight.... The mix of smell. Hearing.and more to know a targets location
Only gold and gold for 70 or more years. Yes a dragon with incredible nose will obviously know a person standing there.
also he can just see where his jewelry are falling out
As Smaug point it, even with Bilbo being invisible he can still hear him, smell him.
Well he failed to kill him many times so I find that very unimpressive :-))))
When bilbo takes a knee at 3:21 like “if I just chill he won’t see me” always cracks me up 😂😂
Oh yes ... like when he's "burglaring" up towards the trolls, Tom, William & Bert and then bails out of it ... Jack Sparrow style.
@@manuelwatts1864 Obligatory CAPTAIN exclamation

"Thorin sent you to get the Arkenstone"
"No he didn't"
"He doesn't value your life"

"You know what you are, but what am I?"

That’s what you call acting what an incredible actor he should’ve won an Oscar for this
I think Smaug liked being flattered and gloated so much about his size and strength because he knew he was the smallest and weakest of the dragons.
Smaug was said to be the largest of his time, one of the last dragons. But surely the ancient dragons were ridiculously large.

@@gaminggoof1542 "tantalizing"? more like generic upper class snob. he's overrated and Peter Jackson never did a worse thing than when he recast him as Sauron
His baritone voice alone made Smaug memorable. Amazing voice. Best dragon ever.
WHAT?
I love this scene because Bilbo’s greatest strength has always been his raw cunning, and it’s always gotten him out of trouble. But when he meets Smaug, someone who is just as smart as he is, the tables are turned, and you can see him get more and more afraid. It makes you so tense.
“My armour is like tenfold shields, my teeth are swords, my claws spears, the shock of my tail a thunderbolt, my wings a hurricane, and my breath death!” - Smaug
and I thought Malefor from The Legend of Spyro was scary
He is freaking terrifying by just how calm he was, and just how not in a rush he was to find the intruder. Like a cat playing with a mouse just because it can.
I mean, he's a big ass fucking dragon. why should he be worried?
This is why Smaug is one of my favorite villains
Look at him at 6:21. Amazing. What a majestic dragon. Huge and powerful. His voice alone is wonderful, rich baritone.

I'm not sure what I'm more impressed with. The size of the hall, the size of Smaug or the fact there is so much gold that it both fills the room and Smaug can sleep under it
The size of the hall if smaug can glide around in it.
That is every evil dragons goal. Buried alive in treasure every bedtime!
@@hostilenative920 yes
@@vegito5626 that's what I was impressed by...
I think all of the above impresses me.
If only Tolkien could see this scene, I think he'd cry tears of joy over how incredible Smaug is, to see his monstrous creation brought to life by CGI and Benedict's incredible voicework.
He'd likely also hate how they fucked up his book lol.
@@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.
@@ShadowmanJaxson No offense, but not sure what you're talking about. Christopher Tolkien, J. R. R. Tolkien's son, hated the movies.
@@ShadowmanJaxson Lee and Tolkien weren’t old friends, I believe they met at a bar once
@@Laesis Not really sure why Christopher hated the movies so much to be honest. The Hobbit was pretty bad to be fair, but the Lord of the Rings movies, although not perfectly faithful by any means , are probably the best book to film fantasy adaptation that will ever happen, because there has not been a more faithful adaptation since.
There’s so many fantastic lines in this scene!
“I know the smell and taste of Dwarf, no one better. It is the gold, they are drawn to it like flies to dead flesh.”
“I am almost tempted to let you take it. If only to see Oakenshield suffer. Watch it destroy him, watch it corrupt his heart, and drive him mad. But I think not, I think our little game ends here. So tell me, thief, how do you choose to die?!”
"My teeth are swords"
"My claws are spears"
"My wings are a HURRICANE"
Holy shit I would've passed out from fear

One of the best things about this dragon is how much of a human side he had. The intelligence and human traits, arrogant, greedy and just an evil fuck of a beast. Best dragon ever, his voice alone is legendary. Sounds like baritone. Intimidating but was nice to look at.
Fun fact in book he follows that line up with "And my breath is death"
@@CreepingHistory I liked that they saved the death part for the very end when he's flying toward the town and made it "I am ...... DEATH" was so impactfull. Benedict Cumberbatch plays an amazing villain, Truly bone chilling

"No Sherlock. You're a drama queen."

Lol no shit Sherlock.
Smaug is played by the same actor as Sherlock. Nice one.
Bilbo talking to Smaug feels so genuine, like when your parent or teacher catches you doing something bad and you awkwardly try to explain yourself…
What I like about Smaug was that not only was he physically intimidating to Bilbo, but he was also trying to demoralize him…
_“You are being used, Thief in the Shadows. You were only ever a means to an end. The coward Oakensheild has weighed the value of your life and found it worth nothing.”_
And demoralise him with the truth no less.
He was partly right
"Do you think flattery will keep you alive?"
That was my "oh shit" moment in the film.
YES.
@@darryladams6780 HAHAHAHA!!! No.(*proceeds to burn you alive)
Smaug ain't your typical stupid vain villain.
@Al Especially since he asked.
2:58. Bilbo comprehending the size of the dragon and realizing the serious situation he's gotten into. 6:21. The sight of him alone would be enough to knock someone out. Bilbo had some balls to stand there and face Smaug.
If this was D&D, flattery might actually keep you alive when dealing with a dragon. That and a precious gift to add to the hoard.

“Something made of gold, something far more….precious!” Chills!

Smaug: *rushes to show himself off.
Love the fact that he actually hurried to show himself off 😅
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.
Thank you for explaining this!
Jana Heyerdahl Happy to help!!!
I agree Bilbo in the book was way more in control of the situation then he was in the film made it feel like Smaug was letting him live so it took the intensity out of the situation I was really disappointed by the movies depiction and it was what I was looking forward to the most.
@@austinlee9463
Yeah, at least his voice acting is good. Eloquent, cunning, vain, manipulative. The script is kinda shitty though, but that's the whole Hobbit trilogy.
@@Lilliathi Couldn't blame them, Peter was writing the script when it was happening- took such a toll on him they had to take a filming break because he couldn't keep up with demands. To put it into perspective the kind of rush they were in, in the first showing of Smaug in the dwarves flash back, even just the feet shown was a entirely different model because they didn't know what he would've remotely be designed as yet.

This dragon is voiced by the same person who played:
A ruthless warlord in Star Trek
An arrogant surgeon turned mystic arts master in Dr Strange
A Sociopathic Holmes in Sherlock
When I first watched this movie, I had never read any of the books so when Smaug spoke I was shocked. I literally said out loud in the theatre "HE SPEAKS" I was also shocked how polite he was, he spoke with such intelligence. Given he has lived under a mountain for 60 years without speaking to a soul its kinda shocking. I wonder how old he is.
It's not very clear how old he is, but he could be several thousands of years old, possibly (although it is unlikely) being around during the War of Wrath
He's lived in Erebor for 150 years actually.
Say what you will about the rest of the trilogy, this scene alone was perfect.
the rest was terrible
Smaug looks incredible in this scene. Best dragon in the history of fictional dragons to be serious. Drogon from Game of Thrones cannot hold a candle to this dragon. Smaug was evil, scary, badass yet totally majestic.
What i would of love to seen was Smaug being brought back from the dead in The Two Towers.
I wonder what he would of done?
square shield scene with Gollum was nice
This scene is a rare gem found in a pile of absolute shit.
That moment when you realize that, despite all of the treasure in that room, Bilbo brought an even greater treasure with him.
One Ring to rule them all
@@Ultimusvivi im pretty sure smaug love that ring
@@darthvader2035 One ring to find them all.
Something far... more... preciousssssss....
@@Ultimusvivi Bad plan, very bad plan. The Ring gets more powerful and dangerous the more powerful the one bearing it is. And it also amplifies their power. That's why a hobbit, with no real power whatsoever, is the perfect one to carry it and destroy it.
Of course, there's also the small fact that Bilbo has absolutely no clue how valuable that ring really is at this point.
This whole sequence is one of my favorites. The humorous bits are one of the reasons why; 03:22 when Smaug starts to wake up and Bilbo just squats down as if he’s been there the whole time 😂
I just noticed. When Smaug awakes, his eyes almost never leave Bilbo. When Bilbo puts on the ring as smaug rises, his eyes are practically glued to where Bilbo is. He almost looks Bilbo directly in the eye. Throughout their entire interaction, Smaug always knows exactly where Bilbo is, he just feigns ignorance so he can play with Bilbo for a bit before eating him
Smaug can smell his exact location even when bilbutt is invisible, its scary
Smaug: "...something made of gold, but far more precious! "
Bilbo: "how could you possibly know that?!"
Smaug: "Deduction ."
As much I enjoyed the predecessors comments, this one shines the brightest. Haha
"obviously"
Elementary my dear Watson
Bilbo: "..... Eeehh what??"
Smaug: "What?"
@@risraid9324 Bilbo: "what?"
Smaug: "i didn't say anythin'!"
Trapped in the lair - an underthemountain opera
i just love how Smaug is completely aware of everything in this scene, the fact that bilbo is flattering to save his life, the fact that he has the ring, and the fact that the arkenstone was there and that bilbo was trying to get it the whole time.
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.
Matthew Marchbanks I think he can tell just by bilbos presence, he may be invisible but he is still a physical thing, if he can tell a single cup out of a thousand is gone it’s not a long stretch to say he can detect a person standing on his hoard
@@jackofastora8962 Well, maybe, but there's also just his scent
Yeah, Smaug's sense of smell is extremely strong. On the journey Bilbo probably wouldn't have gotten a chance to wash once, so the smell of the Dwarves and Bilbo himself would be covered a lot by dirt, so it's impressive that Smaug could smell the Dwarf scent besides Bilbo himself. Also the fact that using his sense of smell he could pinpoint exactly where Bilbo was, at one point looking directly at him.
Smaug was easily the best thing about the whole Hobbit franchise. Definitely the best dragon in fiction, ever.
“I ate his people, (STOMP) Like a WOLF Among ShEEP”
-One of the Coldest line deliveries in cinematic history
I love this scene, especially when I see the behind-the-cameras. Benedict transitioning from himself into Smaug was phenomenal. Every single detail of his performance gave me the chills. Thespians are the definitely the best.
The fact he could pull off this super-deep, intimidating tone is amazing.
"My teeth are swords. My claws are spears. My wings are a *hurricane* ."
Magnificent dialogue.
King Ghidorah laughs
Monologue*
I like the whole line: " My armor's like tenfoldshields, my teeth are like swords, my claws spears, the shock of my tails a thunderbolt, my wings a hurricane. And my breath. Death!
It's magnificent bc they're the original words from the book xD
His tongue is silver 😳
Say whatever you want about the hobbit trilogy, this scene is absolutely fantastic
I might still watch the trilogy. I might also watch all of them at once to get the full experience.
The trilogy is amazing
@@ryanangelastro504 I’m actually doing it today and it’s great actually!
This and Riddles in the Dark
And sauron
The dialogue writing that they did for Smaug was incredible. Every line that he had just was amazing.
One thing I found fascinating in this scene is one object of evil is being used against another evil. Not completely effectively, but still fascinating nonetheless.
Bilbo: What are ya buyin?
Smaug: ...What are ya sellin'?
Bilbo: Mostly BS.
Smaug: Sold.
I could imagine that in a blooper reel, where the actors are just shooting the shit, and the audio engineer team had fun with it.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH.
…….
I laughed. Lol
Smaug:That's bullshit, thief in the shadows...but it's very very good bullshit.
Smaug wasn't scary JUST because he was big and powerful, he was also scary because he was able to take a 5 minute conversation with an invisible thief and figure out exactly what he was doing there and why.
But in the process, Bilbo found his weak spot.
However in the movie, he keeps it a secret.
Now, WHAT GOOD IS A WEAK SPOT IF YOU KEEP IT A SECRET, HUHHHH?
I was gonna make a Sherlock joke but I thought I probably shouldn’t...
@@SovereignStatesman in the 3rd part, they kill him through his weak spot
David Mariaschin I thought you said Samsung. 😂😂
A lil bird told him
4:04
What I love most about this scene is that they didn't add any kind of special effects for Bilbo's disappearance as soon as he put on the ring. Just simply delete him out😂
Seeing this scene in theaters was everything I had hoped it would be. Ever since I heard there was a dragon in the books when I saw the first movies- I hoped to see him.
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.
So happy I saw this there.
Honestly that Smaug saying “Precious...” and that flash of Sauron’s eye was much more effective at foreshadowing the Lord of the Rings than the rest of the trilogy did.
10:00 is another foreshadowing.
@@meneither3834 Yeah but i's not as good. Foreshadowing is done better when it's shown to you, not told.
@@classycthulhu8449 I would disagree. You can have excellent foreshadowing within a conversation. Depending on the scenario the viewer won't even notice it.
that was dope i love thos small details makes the movie.
Remember as a dragon Samug was made as a servant of Melkor, who's chief lieutenant was Sauron. Their has been a lot of discussion on Samugs connection to Sauron. Granted theirs no evidence to suggest that Sauron had any affiliation with dragons apart from a once shard master.
i find it funny that of all the things Bilbo said, Barrels was the one that made Smaug interested. Not the ability to walk unseen, but barrels lol.
@J R oh
@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.
B A R R E L S S S . . .
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.
@@ZaberAnsaryOfficial The thrush didn't talk to Smaug and neither was intelligible to the other.
Bilbo: Smaug, I've come to bargain!
Smaug: That's _my_ line!
Lol
3:21 I love how Bilbo just sits down and gives up for a second 💀💀
*_Have you ever wondered where Smaug got all of this knowledge about Oakenshield and the dwarf? He interrogated all the dwarfs who were still stuck in Erebor before devouring them, almost the same he intended to do with Bilbo here. There's something particularly savvy in it._*
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.
he did the same with the lake men who he killed, using Dragonspeak to force them to talk.
Nice name
Oh com'on, He is Sherlock Holmes after all.
That should have been very scary. I think they should make a film like Saw or something like that about it.
The effects they put on Benedict Cumberbatch's voice were exceptional. The boosted bass, the extra gravel-- it all produced a convincing, terrifying voice for Smaug.
In pretty sure a lot of it was his actual voice, I remember reading somewhere that it actually damaged his throat
Actually, it's more natural than you might think. There's a few minor tweaks, like adding reverb to make it believeable that they're in a massive cavern, but Benedict was that bassey, and had a good growl to his voice. You can find footage of him doing this, crawling around like a madman in a motion capture suit, and the audio is very similar.

YOU MADE ME LAUGH OUT LOUD!!!!
6:20. He looks like insanity. Great CGI. Incredible dragon. One has to praise Bilbo for holding himself together at the sight of that beast. He was visibly terrified and anyone in their right mind would be but stayed composed and didn't back down.
*ExAcTlY*
Nah fuck it! You can keep it!
"There is something about you... Something that you carry... Something made of Gold... But far more precious."
This scene right here beats the entirety of Rings of Power.
Everyone is commenting on Smaug but Bilbo staying calm is impressive. He literally never let Thorin down. Even though the dwarves doubted him constantly
Bilbo baggies is the star in this movie! ✨
Survival instinct kicked in for him lol

Enjoy
Thorin is the only dwarf who doubted him
Thorin can said himself. He has never been so wrong in his entire life after bilbo saves him. Nice to see him say that.
Smaug is surely the most well designed dragon i've seen in movies

@@alexpacino1 Smaug would hold Drogon's head.

@@alexpacino1 Rayquaza is better lmao
The most terrifying part is knowing Smaug is in there, but not where he's hiding
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.)
I can see where the budget went
Benedict
Raven Douglas well, yes.
I'd say It's a wise choice on PJ's part. Smaug is a big deal in the book. So, why not these movies?
Actually, they had enough budget to spare. It was the pre production that messed it all up. PJ wasn't given the time needed, like LotR, to give the best he could for these movies.The reason he asked for a three parter was to actually try and get more time to finish the story. Don't blame PJ, blame the studio.
Was definitely worth it. 6:20. How amazing does that dragon look. WOW. Scary and still beautiful looking. Best dragon ever.
Glad I'm not the only one who thinks this is the best dragon in film history.
You're not the only one. Most if not all critics consider him to be cinema's greatest dragon.
Imo King Ghidorah is the greatest dragon in Cinematic history.
@@prehistoricplayer1132 what so great about him tho?
@@prehistoricplayer1132 Technically Ghidorah isn’t a dragon, but a three-headed alien that resembles a dragon.
@@zedrick-sama2915 He destroyed the people living on Mars and turned it into a barren wasteland. He has been the arch nemisis of godzilla for a very long time and almost always requires godzilla and at least one other monster to beat him.
When Smaug asked "and do you know?" While giving Bilbo a full look of his majestic form🔥🔥🔥
I like how Smaug calling Bilbo "The Barrel Rider"
I love how Smaug intriguingly reacts to the various titles that Bilbo claims out of his improvisation. It's like he's been buried for years and years under gold hibernating in his riches, but he's so happy to hear/encounter something different and unexpected even it's a thief. It's the victorious villain that won't admit that he's slightly alone in his victory so he's willing to keep a low level weak enemy around just long enough to entertain his boredom/loneliness.
....even is he's well aware that the dwarves are there trying to reclaim their kingdom. There's just this feeling that I get with his character here in that beginning segment of his encounter with Bilbo that he's actually kinda enjoying the company of Bilbo minus the Dwarves stuff.
In the book the title "Barrel Rider" catches his interest most of all because he catches on that he came through Laketown, and thus was one of the reasons he proceeded to attack it
Slinkerdeer he’s a smart dragon.
No dragon can resist the fascination of riddling talk and of wasting time trying to understand it.
This is literally the plot of Sherlock
Smaug is an brilliant character because this environment and what happened to him is what happens to some humans. The way the gold and isolation has disconnected him from reality and made him paranoid and crazy.
"What did he promise you? A share of the treasure? As if it was his to give."
I've always loved that line, in both the book and the movies. Smaug nastily making Bilbo aware that the line in the contract he signed was nothing more than vain hope.
Its better in the book when Smaug points out how useless the treasure would be to Bilbo.
@@bulldogsbob I loved that in the books. When Smaug pointed out that Bilbo's reward doesn't even take into account all the expenses it would take to haul it down from the mountain.
@@nmjjmn663 lol was Smaug his accountant too?
@@assaulth3ro911 Sort of lol.
Smaug basically pointed out that even if they managed to get the gold, it'd be useless to them in the middle of nowhere. And they (Bilbo especially) would need to pay for delivery, cartage, armed guards, and tolls, and with a fourteenth share of the gold. All of which Bilbo had never even considered before.
@@nmjjmn663 lol smaug was good with cash 😂
Smaug: “Are you just trying to get me to talk about myself? Because if you are… *I WILL GLADLY DO SO!”*
The sheer _malice_ in his voice, the unadulterated evil you can sense, radiating off him. This dragon is a monster. It is pure evil, and it enjoys every moment of suffering it inflicts upon the world
I always get chills when Smaug says “precioussssss”
I really like that touch
i loved that too
imagine if he got his claws on the ring. It would eventually corrupt him as it does all things but for that little bit before would be nuts.
@@Blasted2Oblivion Dont think so. Dragons are already corrupt and they like treasure. He likes to sit on it and sleep. Something small as Ring of Power would not make Smaug any happier. This is why rings Sauron sent to Dwarfs were pretty much useless. Dwarfs already like riches and they were greedy for it even before they were gifted the rings. Rings affected them but not in a way Sauron expected. They became more secluded and mined like crazy for gold and gems. Little did they care for affairs outside their halls and mines. And Ring of Power is dangerous so posses. Smaug likes status quo. Ring is trouble cause Sauron is after it. So Smaug would be in danger if he takes it for himself. And a small dragon like Smaug is no match for Sauron really.
OMAN horror-

@@verthie6176 I love it as well its a great foreshadowing of the evil the Ring holds inside of it and it was trippy how The Ring influenced even Smaug and made his arrogance even more noticeable.
Bilbo: "The tales and songs fall utterly short of your enormity."
Smaug: Having flashbacks to Ancalagon stuffing him into a locker.
Good one
Lmao Ancalagon is such a bully
Underrated comment.
Ancalagon could probably use Smaug as a boomerang let’s be honest
@@randomprimarissalamander8735 No shit, Ancalgo was so gigantic the word itself barely has any meaning. I mean, Smaug isn't bad even compared to ancient dragons but comparing him to Ancalgon is like comparing Sauron to Morgoth. Of course, the gape of power isn't as big but that's the idea.
8:54 gave me chills
FR
8 years ago me and my uncle whatching this masterpiece in TV ❤️
If this is just Smaug's voice, imagine hearing Ancalagon the Black speaking. The depth of his voice would shake the entire earth
They should get Christopher Judge, the voice of Kratos in the newest God of War game, to voice Ancalagon
One of the few reasons why I want Silmarillion movies or series. Ancalagon is a fucking beast.
That would have been made for the dearly departed Christopher Lee.
Ronan Ward Or even the jormungands voice actor from god of war, even that would be a good choice but it would sound too similar
@@magnustheredxv nope. That is one huge understatement! Ancalagon is far beyond a simple "beast".
