Manage episode 395413476 series 3322409
In this episode of Tolkien with Friends, we're joined by Mary Clay Watt of That's What I'm Tolkien About, to discuss the chapter "Queer Lodgings" and the beginning of Peter Jackson's "The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug." Our conversation includes:
- Thorin and Gandalf's "chance" meeting in Bree
- Our frustration with the pacing in the Hobbit movies (like, please, can we take just one beat to enjoy Middle-earth?)
- How Beorn is depicted in the book and the movie
- Speculation on what Gandalf is really thinking
- And much more!
