Interesting mention of six-limbed Smaug and smaller eyes.

Thank God for the four limb change.
I think the "arms" make him much more flexible in terms of movements. Also more elegant especially in the enclosed spaces of Erebor.
I thought the six limb version in the original prologue of AUJ already raised the fear in me that he would look clumsy.

Praise is subjective. And so is criticism.

For the love of everything holy, do not read the comments on that video. Save yourself the agony.
How many Tolkien fans does it take to change a light bulb?
"Change? Oh my god, what do you mean change?! Never, never, never......"

The wyvern/dragon debate is particularly weird imho.

Some think to believe that the filmmakers are too stupid to look up a dragon or wyvern definition. Over looking that if you look closely and deeper into the semantic history of the terms and the looks of dragons, the sentence "he isn't a dragon" is quite wrong.
However, look at the bigger and more representive numbers and figures to get an idea of how this movie and Smaug were liked by the audience. Most of them speak a very clear language that has nothing to do with the often witnessed flaming on YouTube (not to say that negative views have no value, this comments , however, are just not representative).
