Honestly, Bilbo's "What have I got in my pocket" isn't even really a riddle in a traditional sense. Riddles by nature should have hints hidden in the question so that an answer can be deduced from it with careful thinking. All of the answers that Gollum/Smeagol gives are literally things that can be in a pocket. The question had no hint, no correct answer can be deduced, and therefore it isn't a riddle. It's just happened so (fortunately for Bilbo) that Gollum took what was really Bilbo's random musing as a riddle, and Bilbo decided to roll with it, understanding that he now has an advantage. So Bilbo won the game in an untraditional way, just as he himself is an untraditional hero.
He definitely is much sharper than his appearances would suggest. He managed to deduce where Bilbo had went and followed his trails through Mirkwood and even into Dale, and before his corruption he learned much lore from his grandmother about the history of Middle-Earth.
@Squish_Bean A true point. Also it is mentioned early on in the books that the corruption of the One Ring lengthened his lifespan to around 500ish years. If you don't pick up knowledge in multiple centuries, well... I guess you're just meant to be a dimwit.
2:17 you can see bilbo quickly taking his hand out of his pocket when Sméagol guesses. This also happened in the novel as well and I always really liked that touch in the film
Try and kill Bilbo? He would have eaten him like a starving person devours their first meal in 3 days. Did you see how excited he got when he said "If we win, we eats it whole"? Bilbo was the tastiest thing that gollum had seen in a few hundred years. He's used to eating gobblinses and they don't taste very nice do they precious?
@@willcc19-18 True, because you see the enemy coming. Being invisible doesn't allow that. Gollum is stronger than Bilbo and stealthier. You can see that he took Bilbo completely by surprise when he was thinking about the "Time" riddle.
4:24 I love that look Smeagol gives. Just pure, crushed betrayal. Gollum was the one who wanted to tear Bilbo apart from the start, but Smeagol really just wanted to play a game. He was having fun, and maybe even considered Bilbo a new friend or something. But as he realizes that Bilbo stole the Ring, the one prized possession he had, it felt like he was being stabbed in the back.
Gotta love the way Gollum figures out Bilbo has the ring. When Bilbo asks what he's lost he says that it's "none of his business," which is another way of saying what Bilbo had just said before, "that's no concern of yours"
@@willcc19-18 Nah, I bet he put up two fingers so he'd have an excuse to eat Bilbo before his third chance. "Whoops, I accidentally put up two fingers'es, so time to feasts'es!"
I just realised, that Gollum indirectly helped Bilbo with finding the door to the mountain by using riddles. If you think about it the riddles acted like training for the final riddle that would help them find the keyhole cause at the end of the day it’s Bilbo’s knowledge in riddles that makes them realise the last light of Durins Day is moonlight.
I noticed that for the very first riddle Sméagol asked just for fun while the next three Gollum was asking in a threatening manner while Sméagol was still guessing for fun
@@viksaggu9085 Well I'm not exactly sure I understand what you mean, but the rings affect on him is not necessarily something he would be cognizant of. In the the lord of the rings films (and books) Bilbo and Smeagol often respond with something of that nature. For example when Gandalf asked Bilbo to surrender the ring to Frodo, Bilbo replied "what business is it of yours what I do with my own things". Or even here in the Hobbit movie when smeagul replies with "musn't ask us. not its business". In fact now that I think about it, Bilbo's respsonse saying "that's no concern of yours" may have clued Smeagol in as to what Bilbo may have had in his pocket.
@@nealcastagnoli6185 his response is no way from the influence of the ring. He knew the ring belonged to Gollum so he was making sure he didn't even get a chance to know he had it. Of course eventually the ring influenced Bilbo, certainly after decades of owning it like in the LOTR. But in the cave not so much, or he would have attacked Gollum to fight over it.
I don’t know how I never noticed this but when Smeagol is in control his pupils are wide and innocent, but when Gollum is in control his pupils turn small and menacing.
3:17 just realised Gollum angrily went for the Ring when he realised he lost, inferring he was about to put it on, turn invisible and eat Bilbo anyway. No wonder he was prepared to play a game with his food, Gollum always planned on eating Bilbo
I actually kind of like the version here since in the books Bilbo says what as he got in his pocket not as a riddle but more towards himself before turning around all confused when it stumps Gollum, the scene does it pretty close.
Gollum: "What has it got in its nasty little pockets?" Bilbo: "a ticket for a Justin Bieber concert" Gollum: "Bagginses really has poor taste in music"
This moment along with Bilbo meeting Smaug are almost good enough to redeem the whole trilogy. It's not bad but it's not as good. But damn these moments truly nearly save it.
Makes you wonder if Gollum had ever lost his ring before because when he was fighting the Goblin he dropped it. In nearly 500 years he had to of dropped it at least once.
I wonder if Bilbo had offended to help Gollum find the ring and gave it to him if Gollum would’ve shown him the way out. *Either way he found the way out and got a free ring in return lol*
3:57 You've stolen drugs from your methhead friend, now he's having trouble coping with withdrawal. However, now he realizes where his drugs have actually gone...
1:45 When Bilbo asked that question it sounds like he was under the influence of the One Ring? The Ring’s music theme started at that time. I keep forgetting Sauron’s best trait was to deceive so the Ring deceived Gollum on that question so he wouldn’t find it again.
Год назад+1
No. The ring theme plays because, well, the ring is the answer to that question. And as written in the book, Bilbo was actually talking to himself when he said "What have I got in my pockets?", but Gollum heard it and thought it was the riddle. Bilbo went on with it, after failing to come up with an actual ridle.
His sanity started going long ago from the moment he first laid eyes on that damned ring 400-500+ years ago, particularly after getting kicked out of his home and sent into exile when his grandmother found out he murdered his cousin to get it. At this point, he’s just a broken old guard dog/meth head.
He calls the ring precious. However it can be confusing because the character of gollum is essentially two different people. There's smeagol, the happy one who was wanting to play games, and gollum, the sort of alternate personality created by the ring, with the lower more gravelly voice and violent murderous nature
5 good things about Desolation of Smaug: 1. Smaug's scenes 2. Spider attack in Mirkwood 3. Bilbo's first "My Precious" meltdown 4. Gandalf and Radagast in the Nasgul graves. 5. Stephen Colbert cameo
Dwarves vs Elves and every part of the final battle where it shows evil getting wrecked and doesn’t show good guys dying cause that’s useless drama we don’t need nowadays for in these difficult times, we NEED to be reminded that good, light, and pure intentions will ALWAYS WIN regardless of circumstances or context or even the opposition. And if anyone disagrees, you clearly need to lighten the f**k up and work harder internally to become happier. Have a nice day. ^^

I don't know if it's just me, but in the LOTR trilogy, Smeagol was a low key badass. In the Hobbitt trilogy, he was a total creep that I didn't like at all.
In his defense, "Handses" was a pretty clever response.

Makes you think that Smeagol must have been fairly smart. He's like the kid that could have done so much with his life but became a crackhead instead.
He definitely is much sharper than his appearances would suggest. He managed to deduce where Bilbo had went and followed his trails through Mirkwood and even into Dale, and before his corruption he learned much lore from his grandmother about the history of Middle-Earth.
Haha true
He should've put the ring on his unit.. there would be no loses only wins..

3:18 is literally how we all react when we don't feel our phone is in our pocket. No?
You're right actually
Atleast we didn't scream "precious" right?
No.
I love the look on his face when he says, "Time's up!"
You can see Andy Serkis there...
1:56 “that’s against the woos!”
Yet he was about to knock Bilbo out with a big rock before the game was even over, so he could try to eat him without having to win first.
I felt actually sorry for Gollum when he realized he lost the ring
In fairness, he did say "precious" at 2:12 so technically he won
I suppose it’s both because Bilbo had no idea what Precious necessarily was and it was something Smeagol said before his official guesses.
I noticed that for the very first riddle Sméagol asked just for fun while the next three Gollum was asking in a threatening manner while Sméagol was still guessing for fun
I love how Bilbo responds with "That's no concern of yours". A nod to how the ring has already started to affect him.
It’s actually in the book. Bilbo didn’t understand the ring yet. He just didn’t want to show his pocket in case it had something Gollum guessed
