I’ve always pronounced Smaug as “Sm-owg”, like saying the word “ow!” or “loud” with the diphthong. If you listen carefully in the Hobbit movies, you’ll hear it pronounced this way.

Do you know whatever happened to the one video of the Orcs and Fellowship in Moria beginning to flee at the beginning of Mariah Carey’s song (instead of the Balrog)? I’ve been trying to find it again in the Joke & Meme thread, but it seems to have disappeared on me, unless I’m looking in the wrong place.

I know! I always laugh at Bilbo's comment about his bees.

Yes!! Thank you! I’d been searching back multiple pages over and over and couldn’t find it.

Thank you!! I think I have heard that before, now that you mention it 😅

Very accurate.
