The nerve of this
clown, Peter "PJ" Jackson. I sat through 161 minutes
of dwarves in barrels and elves with arrows, only to find out that Smaug was barely
in the flick. Oh, they talked about
Smaug, but that big bastard literally (in
that Rob Lowe “Parks & Rec” voice) slept through the first ¾ of the film –
and I should have followed his example.
I was actually jealous of a fictional dragon because he got to sleep
through this joint and I bet he didn’t pay 18 bucks for it.
