    I didn't know that book "battle" really counted as a battle or part of the larger war

    52% of people got the question "What place was the Witch-King of Angmar the Witch-King of?" wrong.

    Why the dwarves are immune to Sauron's control through the 7 rings? The rings just increased their greed. Sauron didn't know it?

    So, I saw The Desolation of Smaug on the first of my plane flights on Saturday... totally underwhelmed again, though I really like Martin Freeman as Bilbo and thinks he basically makes the movies watchable (though moreso in the first film).

    But I want to see if I understand this... Jackson padded this book to three films and in the second one introduces a female character for no real reason, basically in order to get a fan-favorite character into the movie (who shouldn't have been there to begin with) while also then trying to drum up a love-triangle that the actress who played the made-up character specifically requested they not do and was assured that they wouldn't?

    that about sum it up?

    Having said that, probably the greatest visual representation of a dragon on screen since Vermithrax Pejorative, even if I seem to recall his personality being slightly different from the book though it's been some time since I last read it...

    Yeah, the padding is absurd. But imagine how awesome Smaug was in IMAX!

    Are you saying she was intended to be a fan-favorite character?

    I hope they defeat the Witch King by stabbing him in the face in the next movie.

    Gollum should stab him.
