Old Bilbo tells Frodo he came home with only one chest of treasure – “and it still smells of troll.” So he doesn’t end up with any Dwarven treasure at all when he departs for home after the Bo5A? Interesting. Why not? Good question! In the book, Dain gives him a couple chests, one of gold and one of silver, and then he brings home the troll hoard gold as well--in bags, not a chest--at Gandalf's insistence. So perhaps Dain doesn't give him any treasure in the movie, and his only treasure is the movie troll chest? He does end up with the mithril shirt, though, apparently. That is a kingly gift in itself, I believe.
Yes, I took that line to suggest Dain doesn't give Bilbo any treasure in the movie. Or maybe Bilbo just refuses all of what Dain offers, rather than accepting only the two chests as in the book? Curious as to the potentially altered motivations of Dain and Bilbo there. Thorin’s got his hand on the hilt of Orcrist when he enters Bag End. Just in case he finds foes not friends on the other side of the door? A good warrior is always prepared. It must be his own sword rather than Orcrist, since he doesn't get that until later. He and Dwalin both have a wariness about them as they meet Bilbo that speaks of seasoned warriors. Oh, yes of course; that's what I get for proofing what I've written at midnight. I meant "his sword" not Orcrist. Isn't his sword supposed to be named Deathless (in the movie-verse)? Bifur’s line in Bag End has always sounded to me like “I’m a -- good carry bum!” I won't comment on Bifur's bum. Oh come on...you know you want to. Thanks, Ro! I always enjoy reading your thoughts! Thanks and you're welcome! They're usually a product of too little sleep...
