Not even one more...on Thorin's hair? 1. Bilbo is wearing a helmet when the Company departs from Lake-town. True 2. Which of the dwarves listed below is not among those who start chopping at the stone wall in an attempt to open the hidden door by force? b) Dori 3. Who reads aloud the inscription (“Herein lies the seventh kingdom of Durin’s Folk. May the heart of the mountain unite all dwarves in defense of this home.”) on the carving above the door once the Company has entered the mountain? Gloin 4. When Oin asks for herbs to bring down Kili’s fever, Bard offers him nightshade and … a) feverfew 5. What is the last thing Balin says to Bilbo before sending the hobbit into Smaug’s lair? "Don't waken it." 6. Gandalf is missing his hat when confronted by the Necromancer/Sauron. True 7. Which of these titles does Bilbo give to Smaug first? d) Smaug the Unassessably Wealthy Not sure whether that's the right one. But it's funny, because I always thought Bilbo was saying "Unaccessably Wealthy"--which fits too, I think! 8. Fill in the blank: “I merely wanted to gaze upon your ………, to see if you really were as great as the old tales say.” Magnificence 9. Smaug asks who Bilbo is and where he comes from. Which of the following does the hobbit not mention? c) “I came from the end of a bag, but no bag went over me.” 10. Finish the sentence: “It is the gold! They are drawn to treasure like flies to ……….” dead flesh 11. Smaug compares his teeth to … d) swords 12. Sigrid throws a plate into an orc’s face before joining her sister under the table. True or false? True 13. “We’ve given him the slip.” Whom does this line belong to? a) Dori 14. How many times does Thorin refer to Bilbo by his first name throughout the film? !!!!!!!! Foxes really are as cruel as the old tales say... Two times? 15. Who speaks the last line in the film? b) Bilbo OK, at least that one was easy. Thanks so much for doing these, BF! I have really enjoyed finding out how unobservant I am.

Though I am convinced these questions have become harder - was this deliberate? It's the pesky number questions that trip me up! 1. Bilbo is wearing a helmet when the Company departs from Lake-town. True or false? True - and it looks very over-sized for him. 2. Which of the dwarves listed below is not among those who start chopping at the stone wall in an attempt to open the hidden door by force? b) Dori 3. Who reads aloud the inscription (“Herein lies the seventh kingdom of Durin’s Folk. May the heart of the mountain unite all dwarves in defense of this home.”) on the carving above the door once the Company has entered the mountain? That would be Gloin. 4. When Oin asks for herbs to bring down Kili’s fever, Bard offers him nightshade and … a) feverfew Though I imagine some of the Dwarves need a spearmint to freshen their breath. 5. What is the last thing Balin says to Bilbo before sending the hobbit into Smaug’s lair? Something along the lines of: "Bilbo, if there is indeed a live dragon down there, don't waken it" 6. Gandalf is missing his hat when confronted by the Necromancer/Sauron. True or false? True. Doesn't it fall off with his confrontation with Azog? 7. Which of these titles does Bilbo give to Smaug first? d) Smaug the Unassessably Wealthy 8. Fill in the blank: “I merely wanted to gaze upon your ………, to see if you really were as great as the old tales say.” magnificence 9. Smaug asks who Bilbo is and where he comes from. Which of the following does the hobbit not mention? c) “I came from the end of a bag, but no bag went over me.” 10. Finish the sentence: “It is the gold! They are drawn to treasure like flies to ……….” Well one word comes to my mind first, but this is a family forum. "They are drawn to treasure like flies to dead flesh” 11. Smaug compares his teeth to … d) swords 12. Sigrid throws a plate into an orc’s face before joining her sister under the table. True or false? Err ... false? 13. “We’ve given him the slip.” Whom does this line belong to? My first thought was Dori, but Nori is also listed. *Flips a coin* a) Dori 14. How many times does Thorin refer to Bilbo by his first name throughout the film? I think it will be very low. 3 times? 15. Who speaks the last line in the film? b) Bilbo - "What have we done?" Thanks BlackFox. These have been fun. I think I've done ok this time around.

You have given me food for thought.... Yes, but you know, I kind of thought my number of correct answers would be more in proportion to the number of times I've watched the movie..
