As a kid, I remember seeing an animated version of The Hobbit in which Bilbo and Smaug were communicating but Smaug couldn't see him because he had the ring on. As Smaug looked around, it literally looked like flash lights were shinning out of both his eyes! I remember thinking cool and frightening at the same time. My point is, dragons are among us, but I like to think that Smaug remains supreme.

Chris Winkler agreed

Yeah but where are his front legs?

@@TDubya811 his front legs are his wings

@@TDubya811 He is a fire Wyvern. He doesn't have front limbs. He uses his wings as his front legs.

avram novorra I think it also helps that the movie quite accurately depicts how the inhabitants of lake town can’t really defend themselves against his attacks. The movie does make a point in showing his cunning, his frightening presence and his physical superiority. Add the corrupting aura and magic influence powers from the book and we really get a truly frightening creature.

Drogon...

avram novorra so the fact that Smaug could talk and converse was more intimidating than the fact that he and other dragons were giant flame throwers?

@@dionjaywoollaston1349 Well, just in my opinion I suppose, but giant flame throwers are scary. They still need someone to wield them though, and that also includes intent of action, etc. If someone or something is so "alien" (unknown, not understood, etc) that we don't know where we should hide or when but that same someone-thing is what's in charge of the giant flamethrower... then that's what makes it scary for a lot of folk. Not saying you're wrong, not in any way, just wanted to reiterate the fact that anything/one with power that can harm or induce threat is not the threat itself. It is the being in control of those potential harms that is to be dealt with, feared, respected, fought... Yeah, the giant freakin' flamethrower having a (rather disturbingly polite) conversation with you instead of just immediately fragging you is unsettling and terrifying in that we don't know what's going on, what he'll do, why/what/when/where/howard. "I'd rather rely on knowing where a bad guy will fall than have to guess where a good guy might jump"

Wren hmm good point, though I think you were mistaken when you said “what he’ll do” part of what makes animals frightening is that you don’t know what it’s going to do next yet because Smaug can talk you have an idea, and I think we can all agree Smaug had no intention of letting bilbo leave, on a side note I think the ability to talk is a hunting skill, tricking humans into coming out of hiding because they think it can be reasoned with

@Dylan Dibben fellbeasts are described as the ''horrible attrocities created via darkmages'' - as the ringwraiths are ''servile'' to Sauron; so as their steed. So; unfortunately; the fellbeasts're servile to Sauron's will. I am not sure what happened to the ones whose are managed to survive after the final defeat of Sauron

Morgoth created the dragons if I'm not mistaken?

@@oalonzoa1745 İndeed

@@thedoruk6324 i think that's pretty cool. Eventually I'm going to get around to reading the Silmarillion.

O Alonzo A Yeah and Sauron isn’t in his league so to speak, so it would have have been harder to get a dragon to obey him compared to Morgoth.

Imagine if it was Ancalagon who attacked erebor.

Can you tell me the dragons names that were bigger I'm really into the stuff

Glaurung is my favorite dragon, pure evil fucker

Im assuming GRR pulled 'the Black' explicitly then, neat.

@@ajisaac There would be no mountain left, when Ancalagon was killed just him falling down crushed three mountain tops.

im suprised they used someone as talanted as benedict for a dragon they where vilingly to push some extra money of their budget on an actor to get a good voice for a dragon wich is a good choice to do

Who is this Benedict Cumberbatch

@@chainsaw-man9328 o Smaug the tyrannical

@@chainsaw-man9328 he's the black guy from that 70's show

@@josephhubbard9743 oh yeah

That is because it is the truth

Don't mind me just correcting. *Wyrm

Hearing that Smaug was the last surviving and the smallest dragon really intrigued me. If that guy is supposed to be small, what would the greater dragons of previous ages look like?

@@a.morphous66 The greatest of the Urulokë, Ancalagon the Black, was so massive that when he fell during combat, his body broke Thangorodrim, the group of three volcanic mountains that guarded the fortress of Angband. Ancalagon the Black was the mightiest of the Winged Dragons while Glaurung, father of Dragons, is widely considered the greatest of Dragons as a whole. Glaurung was a wingless drake and has a fascinating story. He was responsible for the fate of the Children of Hurin (which is considered one of the darkest tales Tolkien wrote) and is responsible for breaking the Siege of Angband at the beginning of the Dagor Bragolloch, of Battle of Sudden Flame, which resulted in many deaths of the Noldor.

We need a quality movie/tv show from one of those times.

That’s what I love about him. He was the smallest, but now he’s the only dragon and therefor the biggest. And he sure as heck is gonna gloat about it.

Let's be fair most consider dragons as the pinnacle of power

Sounds good!

6 appendage dragons always look cooler to me. Plus the idea of having to put up with the wings on your arms, and it just increases the likelyhoood of injury

+Gipsy Danger '' I laid low the warriors of old; and they were not anything that are today '' - a (possible) reference to the war of wrath ;)

Gipsy danger would have easily slain smaugh.

@@Napoleonic_S without knowing where his weak spot it, smaug definetly eat you, easily

@@thedoruk6324 Disagree, Gipsy danger was built to fight kaijus that can withstand nukes and conventional warfare firepower that far surpasses middle earth technology and weaponry.

@@Napoleonic_S You meant the gypsy danger from the pacific rim; sorry I thought it was a nickname. (Thought sorry that the second movie was bad)

@Andrés Fernández wywern's doesn't have fingers and arms only bat-like wings; smaug is a dragon; albeit a wywern-esque one

The DORUK Dragons should have 6 limbs; 4 legs and 2 wings. The film’s depiction is a direct deviation from Tolkien’s description of Dragons. Until relatively recently, most fantasy had dragons as the ones with four legs and wyverns the ones with only two.

@@endel12 no. Even the tolkien've described the dragons as 'serpentine with long wywerine wings' - the 4 legged dragon disinformation've been largely born from the romanticizing beowulf' saga's ''classical'' depiction of fire dragons. The actual dragons are either serpentine: asian-altaic dragons; chinese & japanese lungs; and indian nagas; or are wywerine; england's kingdom of wessex flag; the depiction of kazan khanate's dragon; the slavic dragons; the native american dragons...etc

The DORUK maybe Tolkien had plans or ideas

@@drstrangelove4925 Tolkien actually described *several* different dragon subspecies and variants; that have different qualities and anatomical qualifications; northern 'ice drakes' are 4 legged and wingless - that breath ice; desert 'were-worms' were large serpentine sand burrowing dragons...etc.

may they cook themselves by accident?

@@OhHeckNono Suicide Crispy Peking? Perhaps they'd cook and eat the eggs that haven't hatched (since they do that already.)

Actualy there are dragons in Star Wars

@@bloodangel19 yeah sorta.. I know we/they call them that. But those are described more least living ones as very tough, highly aggressive and VERY big and apparently EXTREMELY dangerous angry lizards. With anything resembling the Dragon here having apparently been long since exterminated by time of Star Wars everyone knows well

@@robertagu5533 Well there are 2 types if I remember well, the Krayt dragon of Tatooine, I don't remember the second one, but in the Vader comics he faces a beast named Ender that is represented as a dragon of sorts

If you like his fire breath is red so that is his blade. (Maybe he swallowed his saber and constricts his throat to turn it on?)
