Bibliophiles Anonymous

In this episode of Bibliophiles Anonymous, Denise and Jess review the movie The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug. Review is probably the wrong word. Geek out comes closer. We go on numerous tangents from connections in The Silmarillion, the changes in Gandalf's staff, and a brief discussion on whether or not the Balrog had wings. We do also get around to reviewing the movie, discussing changes made from the book, which ones were acceptable and which ones were just straight up wrong. Overall, we both enjoyed the movie and recommend that you go see it. Links mentioned in the show: The Great Balrog Wing Debate | The Tolkien Professor Have you seen the movie?
