A probably pointless thought
|
Can't Post
|
|
I saw the Hobbit for the third time on Sunday, and I noticed something probably really pointless but I thought I would post it any way. When old Bilbo is talking to Frodo at Bag end, Frodo tells Bilbo that people are talking about tunnels filled with gold at Bag End. Then Bilbo says something like 'It was one small chest, and it still stinks of troll'.So when the dwarves are at the troll cave, they bury a chest of gold. I think that instead of Bilbo getting two chests from Smaugs lair, he will go back to the troll cave on the way back and get that chest that the dwarves buried.

I think it's pretty safe to say that the Arkenstone...
