as an audience member I would find it more satisfying if Smaug occupied the whole of the second film, rather than chopping him off at the end with no resolution. I want the big baddie of the book to get a whole film to himself like the title suggests. I think Smaugs death is going to be a big to do, and they wont slap it at the start of film 3 as it cuts of the drama up to Smaug flying off to Laketown, we need to see it through to the bitter end, otherwise its like the charge of the Rohirrim and the battle of Minas Tirith chopped in two. We need a slow build up with Smaug and Bilbo getting to know each other, then the poop hitting the fan and Laketown is in flames and Bard is surfing rooves and such like. Death of Smaug, aftermath, end of film 2. well thats how I see it anyhoo.
