could Thorin attitude be opossed to Aragornīs at least in the films? yes he wants to come back maybe the aprty is of that number because of the suicidal(after all Dain comes to Thorinīs aid once the dragon is dead) If it is for his stubbornness, who of you have never tried something looking for the aid of people and nobody understood you? you are riding a dead horse they said the treasure is great enough not to share it part by part, but actually the dwarves stay on Erebor at the end of the quest, is not a mission to loot the mountain and evryone do with the treasure what they want, except Bilbo, that is a shire folk and is not expected to stay to live on Erebor Lets talk of the right meaning of Proud here, the dwarves want to recover Erebor,as is honour and tradition are bad wounded by Smaug And yes SPOILER HERE lets talk of the bad meaning of lust, Thorin at the end repents as Sir Dennis said, what to repent for if lust is portraied as a good thing? It reminds me of Romeo and Juliet, excess of lust for honour can cost many lives, or something
