overreacting
(Preview)
Don't you think that Thorin should have taken Bilbo's standpoint into perspective when he is getting all mad at him?All Bilbo is trying to do is help meke peace by giving him the arkenstone to Bard.I think Thorin overreacted, what do you think?

A new Bilbo
(Preview)
Bilbo has changed alot throughout his adventure. Do you think he has become a more respected hobbit? Has he became more appreciative of what he has at home and his food? Or on the other hand do you think that he has just became a better thief?

Answer to the Situation!!
(Preview)
Bard wants 1/12 of the treasure. He doesn't know how much treasure there actually is. Why doesn't Thorin give him a decent amount and then he can leave without any trouble and still have lots of treasure. Your thoughts.

Bilbo's meeting
(Preview)
Do you think the interaction with the enemy (on page 272 and 273) was a bad idea on Bilbo's part? I would not be able to do something like that.... and on pg 273 and 274, I didn't really get why Gandalf congradulated him. I mean, he betrayed his friend, and why shouldGandalf show up all of a sudden just now?

What would you do in his place concerning the arkenstone and parley he worked out with Bard? Would you do it with a heavy heart or willingly, because you knew it was t...

On page 294 in the big-ish black book, when Bilbo hands over the Arkenstone of Thrain it mentions that Bilbo, "not without a glance of longing, handed the marvellous stone to Bard." Even though Bilbo could have easily kept the stone for himself, he gave it away for the good of the others. If o...

On page 240( in the book with the river and Gandalf on the front) Thorin says," For the Arkenstone of my faher is worth more than a river of gold in itself, and beyond that price to me."
