Colbert Interviews Smaug

[Cthulhu 2020]

And apparently Smaug is a conservative!



Couldn't be a better guy to take Letterman's spot.

[zorkuus]

Fitting because Colbert is a massive LotR fan (nerd).

[Gumboy]

His voice sounds really funny. I haven't seen any of the hobbit movies yet, does it always sound like that? (The dragon, not colbert)

[Hey There Guys its Metro]

Its weird, I always thought it was pronounced SMOW.
Do they actually say it as Smog in the movies?

Here is Bilbo and Smaug talking, you will hear how he says his name.

So I have a question, probably a very stupid one. Is that thing some sort of animatronic dohicky, or is it all CG? I'm on sleeping meds atm and my brain is all fuzzyfied, things aren't making a lot of sense to me atm.

Probably all CGI.

I thought it was all CG but the sparks in the background made me question it.

[endersblade]

I thought it was all CG but the sparks in the background made me question it.

That was my thinking too. The main thing that makes me think CG is the one hand/claw he has out. And the fact that his head moves up and down and back and forth so much and so quickly, I don't think if it was mounted on something it could move that fast. But what do I know.

Actually, it was prob just all CG. The sparks were meant to be like wires in the wall or something.

Yerr, I got that, just wasn't sure how real or fake it was lol.

[Moralgy]

Oh, I thought the sparks were the mechanical parts giving them off for the entire interview and up until just now. >.>

[Shinra1]

love his voice

I'm not even on any meds and I'm having trouble figuring it out.

Pretty sure it's all CG though, that claw on his wing he has out kind of gives it away. It only shows in some shots.

[zorkuus]

Why the debate over whether it's GGI? It's obvious comon.

[Osoroshii]

...can we just give Smaug his own talkshow? I'd watch the shit out of that.

[Priya-tan]

Benedict Cumberbatch's voice is so hot.

Benedict Cumberbatch's voice is so hot.

Subjective. I can't stand British accents. I find them highly annoying to listen to. My favorite part is when a person with a British accent is trying to sound angry, lol they still sound like a scared punk. Won't watch the Harry Potter movies because of the accents even though I enjoyed the books. I also don't use Fat Boss guides even though I think they are more helpful then others. The worst is the DBM addon guys added their own voice which sadly is a British accent. I realize there are a lot on MMO Champion so don't come back at me too hard. It's just an opinion and I don't think any less of you.

With that being said however, this is a really cool video of Smaugs voice before computer sounds.
